I have had the honor to have worked together with Artie at KPN. To me, her strongest side is that she dares to dream the perfect picture and is highly motivated to make that dream come true! She believes in putting power where it needs to be; in putting the steering wheel where needs to be steered. Artie has a no-nonsense, direct but always honest management style. She calls it as she sees it and dares to challenge the status-quo when it's no longer beneficial for the goals at hand. She lets her self be well informed to make fact-based choices and steers with years of experience. Thank you Artie for inspiring me.
