academic/trainer/improviser

I am a organizational psychologist and I combine a position as an Assistant Professor at Leiden University with being an independent trainer and consultant.

I focus on negotiation on the one hand and communication on the other (e.g. presentation skills, scientific storytelling, coaching and how to give feedback). Recently, I published a book: "The Art of Presenting" together with Esther van Leeuwen.

Besides being in academia for 30 years (including a PhD in negotiation), I have a mediation degree, and I have more than 16 years of experience in improvisation theatre.

I love to work together, so check out some of my collaborators
