Bio
Lauren Legroun CMgr FCMI
I was fortunate to have worked with Lars while he was Chancellor of the University of Applied Sciences Europe and following his promotion to Chief Operating Officer, an appointment to the holdings level that I fully endorsed. In summary Lars is an extremely impressive colleague. He consistently delivers excellence, produces fresh ideas and drives results in challenging circumstances. He is strategic, tactical, systematic, efficient and executes tasks to the highest standards. Lars is fundamentally insightful but I know him to underpin his business decision making based on empirical reasoning. At the Board level his input as COO is very strong and his analysis is typically highly rational, creative and data-driven. He will identify opportunities and optimize business efficiencies. His experience as the Chancellor and as COO, has given Lars a strong understanding of running a State accredited University. His knowledge of the related systems, processes and regulations governing the German higher education sector is robust and mature. I know Lars to be very generous with this knowledge. I therefore highly recommend Lars for similar C-suite positions, in forward-looking organizations, looking to appoint a tech-savvy and experienced senior business leader, who will add real value
