"René significantly contributed to how effectively we undertook organisational evolution and development. Using design thinking techniques, René facilitated numerous initiatives which led to a higher quality experience for our team and customers. "
ABHINAV KESWANI
former CEO of Trineo
"As a Design Thinking Coach, René has helped our own team and our customers immensely. I've lost count the number of times I've been really surprised at the way René has managed a group (small or quite large) through an effective cycle of divergence - convergence - creating, through a deep empathy and inquisitiveness, the kind of environment that always seems to surface interesting insights, but critically, drives these towards a structured output that action can be taken from - even in large groups."
JOHN MASSON
ex-CTO of Kilterset
"René is an excellent Design Thinker with lots of experience and thorough knowledge of the methodology. In addition, he is willing and able to get deep into the respective subject matter, which contributes to great outcomes."
