Bio
Frank Wessels
A great guy with even greater experience in the field of Finance, Technology and Management. Karl and I have been working in various roles and companies throughout the years, as business partners and the last years and colleagues. Karl is a specialist regarding Financial Performance Management platforms and solutions; managing teams, large departments and is accustomed to overlook and steer complex projects and situations. In all situations he’ll demonstrate his capacity with enthusiasm and a authentic personal touch. I’ve enjoyed working with Karl and always appreciated his input, the skills he brings, his honesty and his direct but friendly feedback.

I've had the pleasure of working with Karl as my direct manager for over 2 years. During this period he has shown his extensive EPM knowledge everybody can learn from, but also a unique managent style where he truefully tries to help his team achieving the next steps. Also by providing direct hands-on support to his team members if needed. He always made time, also if that meant doing things outside of normal business hours. He's straight forward towards his team and clients and always gives his honest opinion. Therefore I found it very pleasant working in Karl's team and am sure he will be a great manager in any environment.

Mar 2022 - Dec 2022
After nearly 5 exciting and memorable years, it was time for change and to say goodbye to inlumi. I started a new adventure: a sabbatical leave. After 25 years of Mastering Performance Management, I was time to master my own fitness & health, family & friends for a while. I feel privileged to have been part of the success of inlumi and that I had the opportunity to work with the best in the Performance Management domain. I want to thank all the colleagues, vendor partners and customers I worked with. What we did at inlumi and with you was always a team effort. Thank you to our amazing customers who gave me their trust to work together and build relationships. Above all, it has been a great pleasure and real honor working with the Dutch team over the past 5 years, building the practice we are today. Show less
