Bio
Andreas Valentin
Hans is an empathetic human being, who leveraged his high emotional IQ, great communication skills and patience to guide and lead me at Superb.

Hope to see you again some time. :)
Evangelos Spanos
Hans is a charismatic leader and evangelist of radical transparency and trust. As the head of the RnD department in Superb, he creates an environment where PMs can shine. How? He leads by example, empowers people with his vision and he is always up for discussions. Hans trusts the team to find the right solutions and helps us with constructive feedback and suggestions. He transformed the Product & design chapter by introducing state of art tools which enables us to focus, work and collaborate effectively with the other departments. His leadership style is characterised by inclusiveness, trust & freedom. He encourages us to challenge the status quo, takes into account our opinions to formulate the product strategy and finally, he acts as a shield for the team, backing us up when it’s needed. Hans is the CPO that every PM wants to work with.
