John Jaakke
With decades of boardroom experience, John knows what to do at the top of the business community. At the same time, he has an empathetic and involved character. This makes him a person who works in a calm, clear and decisive way. Independent, impartial but always with infectious energy and optimism. He calls himself a “trivian round”, with boxes in different colors that still match. From the table of the Supervisory Board or Board of Directors of a company in crisis, to his human side as a committed executive coach and trusted advisor. De Bestuurskamer, everything coincides. From boardroom evaluation to interlocutor in case of dilemmas, his style is calm, decisive, optimistic.
Bestuurservaring
“I've been walking around in a lot of boardrooms. From my own experience, I want to contribute to better governance and supervision. Provide insight into process and behavior. I know what it's like to make difficult decisions and I've felt the loneliness of the person ultimately responsible more than once. Laying an egg is harder than breaking an egg. That is why I also think it is important that people who lead are encouraged. You are unique, but the situation you're in isn't.”
