Working environment

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Olaf for many years beginning in 2009 when we found ourselves on an integration team charged with bringing together the best of our two organizations.  Olaf’s passion and professionalism impressed me from the very beginning.  He graciously extended himself to everyone on the team, willingly sharing his knowledge and experience to ensure an optimal result for the company.  His leadership, ability to engage others, and cultural savvy across organizations and geographies added tremendous value to our new combined department.  I would highly recommend Olaf to any organization looking for the optimal blend of knowledge and experience to help drive strategic results.“

“In addition to knowing Olaf professionally, Olaf has also become a close friend.  His engaging personality, and respectful and inquisitive approach make him easy to relate to on multiple levels.  He is quite selfless and caring, and a great listener, going the extra mile for those around him.  I have had the unique pleasure to share many a chocolate dessert with Olaf, a shared passion discovered through his love of learning about others, as we have shared our professional and personal journeys over the years.“
