Hans Roggeveen

In de periode dat ik met Willem-Jan heb samengewerkt heb ik hem leren kennen als creatieve en betrokken collega. Hij is een waardevolle sparringpartner bij het vormgeven van veranderingen binnen de afdeling. Ik heb veel gebruik gemaakt van zijn faciliterende vaardigheden bij workshops en afdelingssessies en bij het voorbereiden van communicatie uitingen. Willem-Jan leert snel en is in staat om theoretische modellen praktisch toe te passen in werksituaties. Ik kijk terug op een waardevolle en prettige samenwerking.

Willem-Jan heeft de Inspectie geholpen met het beschrijven en verbeteren van een aantal ICT processen. Hij heeft de teams begeleid in het maken van een logische en gedragen rolverdeling. Willem-Jan heeft een gedegen inzicht in processen en herkent knelpunten. Hij is daarnaast bijzonder creatief in het vinden van aansprekende presentatievormen om discussies in te leiden en resultaten te presenteren. En verder is Willem-Jan een prettig persoon om mee samen te werken.
