Bio
Johannis Hatt
Roland has been a key contributor during my time as CEO of Productsup - you could always count on Roland not only on the business side to identify the right topics and solve them with a high quality solution, but also on the personal side. Roland took great care of his team members and made sure everyone can develop their full potential. I would hire Roland any time again! Thx Roland
Daniel Furch
I've worked with Roland twice in my career - at Searchmetrics and at Productsup. In both companies, he joined in an early phase as a lead in the product/ dev department and heavily scaled the team and built the needed structure at the same time to ensure both business success and building/ maintaining a healthy team and positive working environment. Roland is both a very strong manager with a sharp sense for strategy and business KPIs and an absolute natural leader breathing his strong values as a pillar for his team. For him, it's all about the people and their impact. I saw him lead small teams with the same empathy as big departments of +80 people. What I particularly like about Roland is that he doesn't shy away from telling his opinion but at the same time, he is always open for feedback and arguments - and it's always solution-oriented. For him, arguing is about to make the biggest impact, not about to place a big ego. Last but not least, Roland is always up for a coffee and a chat at the coffee machine, and he does that with a smile on his face.
