Marijke Jansen

A true comrade that is how I would describe Haakon. I had the pleasure of working with Haakon for two years at Lely, collaborating in a major transition project. Haakon’s ability to go that extra mile made a dramatic difference in the productivity level of our transition team and led to extra ordinary results. As a leader, Haakon earns my highest recommendation.

Andrew Brothers

During the time I have worked with Haakon I found him to be extremely professional and motivated. He has a personal drive which cuts through issues and ensures that great progress is made. His contribution to my function and team has been outstanding. A great guy. I would definitely work with him in the future.
