Voor een aantal grote congressen/events hebben Chantal en ik met elkaar mogen samenwerken, Chantal vanuit haar projectmanager rol bij World Forum en ik vanuit mijn rol als freelance event coördinator bij Elsevier Weekblad. En wat een feest was dat! Chantal is iemand die weet wat samen werken is, zonder dat er een verschil is in de rol van een ieder, gelijkwaardig en echt samen. Door haar open en transparante manier van communiceren liepen de projecten heel fijn. Ze heeft oog voor detail en voor het geheel, staat open voor veranderingen en is duidelijk in haar communicatie. En dit alles doet ze met lichtheid en humor. Kortom een groot feest om met Chantal te werken.

A creative, resourceful and enthusiastic team player. I was privileged to work alongside Chantal on some key events that took place at World Forum. Chantal's considerable event co-ordination experience with her strong communication and people skills, coupled with the drive and determination to succeed in a demanding role would be an asset to any team. In short, I couldn't recommend Chantal enough! Thank you for all of the fun moments and great results we achieved as a team...

      As a Project Manager at the World Forum, I am working closely together with our clients to make their conference a success. Catering, AV, decoration, entertainment and logistics are all customized to not only meet the purpose of the event but surprise client & delegates! I do that as detailed and efficiently as possible and like to go the extra step. Being part of our Innovation Workgroup and being a trainee supervisor bring me extra joy in my daily job.
