Versatile

Jan is a father, husband, entrepreneur, mediator, commissioner, director and owner of Netherlands Business Academy, author, advisor, coach, trainer, professor… and the list is not even complete. Sport, defence and education are a major recurring theme in his rich career combined with his passion for science.

Measuring and developing personality and potential

​In this podcast, Jan takes you back to his childhood, his successes and pitfalls. Jan flawlessly explains how to measure and develop personality and potential. He does this using the four axes of human potential, namely: IQ (knowledge, skill and ability), EQ (how we interact with others, within a team and in the organisation), FQ (the physical component) and the SQ (Meaningfulness. Who are you, what are your values and norms, what is your passion, where do you want to go).

An inspiring and informative interview. Many thanks for this production by Gulliver training and Link Photography. With their professional approach, well-prepared questions and unprecedented imagery, they put Jan in the spotlight in a beautiful way.
