Change fails when leaders treat people like obstacles rather than as answers.

I have watched executives spend millions on transformation programs while ignoring the conditions that make change impossible. Then blame the people. The pattern repeats everywhere: new strategy, same culture, failed results.

Here is what 15 years of leading change taught me: culture is not the soft stuff. It is the operating system. Change the conditions, and people come with you. Ignore them, and they wait you out.

I grew up in Curaçao, and when your island has been shaped by Dutch, Spanish, and African influence across 500 years, you stop believing that any environment is neutral.

As Chair of the World Scout Committee, I work with 57 million young people across 176 countries. I have seen teenage Scout leaders run complex projects across cultures. It changed how I think about what people are capable of when conditions support them.

As founder of Reshapers, I help executives stop managing change and start making it feel inevitable.

Current work:
→ Leading the World Scout Movement's 2024-2027 strategy
→ Advising organizations on change that does not lose people
→ Building Liderá, a self-authorship movement for Caribbean leaders

The change that failed was beautifully designed. It just forgot to include how people felt.

I have seen it happen too many times.

The strategy was clear. The timeline made sense. Leadership was aligned. And still, it fell apart.

Because nobody asked the team what they were afraid of losing. Nobody made space for the grief, the uncertainty, the hope.

Change is felt before it is understood.

There is a way to lead that honors this truth. And there is a one day course coming to Curaçao that will teach you how.

This methodology is used by teams at Google, Nike, and the World Health Organization. You will leave with a certification, a toolkit, and a practice you can bring to your team the next morning.

For HR leaders, people managers, project managers, change practitioners, and coaches.

March 5th, 2026. 12 spots.

Over more than twenty years in senior roles, I’ve helped shape and lead organisations and systems that play a critical role in public life including universities, healthcare organisations, uniformed public protection services, NGOs and national bodies. Each has its own character, ambition and pressures, yet all depend on leaders who can provide clarity, set direction and build the confidence needed to deliver well.

Throughout my career, I have taken responsibility for shaping organisational strategy, strengthening leadership, aligning systems and building the conditions in which people and teams can perform at their best. I’ve seen how deeply performance improves when purpose is clear, responsibilities are well understood and people feel connected to the wider ambition of the institution.

My executive leadership has spanned people and organisational development, governance, legal services, digital, data, strategy and planning, communications and major programmes. This breadth has enabled me to lead organisations as integrated systems rather than as collections of functions, bringing coherence to complexity and ensuring that ambition, capability and delivery are aligned.

I have worked at Board and executive levels across high-expectation, high-scrutiny environments, leading organisations through transition, transformation and strategic repositioning. My focus is on improving institutional clarity, strengthening decision-making and ensuring performance is reliable, confident and sustainable.

My leadership is calm, principled and clear-sighted. I bring perspective where it adds value, make well-balanced decisions under pressure and ensure that transformation is both meaningful and achievable. Above all, I take seriously the responsibility of stewardship: building the long-term capability, culture and confidence of the organisations I lead.
