Bio
Paul Kalsbeek
Jennifer and I worked together for about 2 years in Contracting & Procurement (C&P) in Shell, including through challenging times such as continuity when Covid first hit, through cash preservation and re-organization of Shell! I know Jennifer firstly as a commercial C&P professional. She seeks smart as well as practical strategies and works collaboratively with business partners, also challenging them if requests or specifications are really needed, or commercially savviest. Jennifer led her team through challenges on medical supplies during the first months of Covid as well as through significant cash savings and later on through changes in her team, She also contributed to longer-term themes such as Shell's worker welfare approach in our supplier base. Please ask her about this, she has lots of depth on this topic. Second, Jennifer is an experienced Leader of Leaders, with passion and loyalty for her teams and proven track-record in capability building across Shell. She was popular faculty in a course called "negotiating for results" across the globe. Third, Jennifer is a wonderful colleague; she is committed to the team's delivery success, funny, and honestly shares her perspective on any situation.
