Sales VP and Managing Director Germany at Hitachi Vantara @ Hitachi Vantara

About

The most important things in life and business are relationships and being surrounded by great people. In my career, I have to spend a lot of time in the C-Suite, and during that time, I spent a lot of time finding the right people to achieve my vision. Supporting people and giving them the necessary tools has been my professional focus but has been personally rewarding the most. In my current role as VP for Hitachi Vantara Germany, I support the cross-industry transformation - these days particularly into Home Office and in Business Continuity Solutions.
