Spargle meets Marjolein van der Velden.
Join us as we sit down with Marjolein van der Velden, the go-to expert when it comes to Agile Coaching. Currently working at UWV’s Client & Service department (writing on 2024). Marjolein brings huge experience from her diverse career path. From hotel management school, to tourism, to recruitment, to working in digital agencies, and now as freelancer at UWV. We explore Marjolein’s professional evolution, as well as her honest reflections on managing the balance between work, personal life, and mental health. Even though she is someone who loves pressure, she also knows that taking a step back to reflect is important.
“My tactic for getting people who are somewhat resistant to change on board is mainly by showing honesty. Every improvement can just be a very small step, so it doesn’t have to be big or complex. Keeping it very simple is key, I think.”
