The Hague, South Holland, Netherlands
Denise’s personality: Denise loves being part of a team that strives for the best result. A team for Denise is a group of people that respects each other, works for the same goal, gives each other feedback and does not work from hierarchy. Denise likes a difficult job over a non-challenging environment, directness over vagueness, high responsibility over not being taken seriously, getting things done over dreaming about everything, questioning the status quo over ‘we have always worked this way’, leading over following and humor over office politics. Denise’s achievements: - Managed business units of over 300 indirect reports and 7 direct reports with a revenue >€12 million with full P&L responsibility; - First female helicopter pilot in the Netherlands Royal Navy at age 20; - Professionalisation of scale-up; - Bronze medal of KNRM for helicopter-SAR in very difficult weather; - Made a non-profitable company profitable; - Created the first public heliport in the Netherlands. If you don’t want to get things done, if you don’t want to talk about the elephant in the room and if you don’t want ambitious, fast-thinking, difficult-questions-asking people around you, don’t call me.
