Ich habe mich sehr wohlgefühlt unter der Führung von Wolfgang, Wolfgang war bei Herausforderungen immer erreichbar, er hatte ein offenes Ohr für alle Anliegen, er war und ist stets hilfsbereit und hat immer eine passende Lösung zur Hand. Er versprüht immer einen positiven Spirit - geprägt von zuversicht und guter Laune. Er kann Teams begeistern und mitziehen. Vielen Dank für die tollen Erfahrungen!

Wolfgang worked as Channel Manager and later Sales Director in our D-A-CH Sales team at TomTom Telematics / Webfleet. His experience and proven market background in fleet management and telematics services has always helped to win deals, manage the involved teams, mastering the challenges around and supported us on our way to become the market leader in our business in Europe. Wolfgang is a very engaged, experienced and loyal sales professional, who lives and breathes the products and solutions he is selling. He has a unique combination of skills in the area of consultative selling of high-tech solutions as well as coaching its sales partners and team how to best service customers, deliver true value and achieve sales quotas in one. With his deep market knowledge combined with positive attitude, drive, energy and great passion he became one of our most trusted professionals we had in our local sales teams. I really appreciated our time together; wish you continued success and good luck in your personal and professional life. Thank you for the great time and your support.
