Captain

Captain, Sailing Yacht "Amarillo" (with own family)
2019-01 - 2021-01
our jobs, sold everything, and set sail Summer 2019 to explore the world with our kids. Returned after 2 years Denmark from French Polynesia in the Pacific after visiting 20 countries and sailing 14,000 nautical miles. But most important we have created memories for life with our family and friends. And why did we do it? Our motto "we have the watch but not the time, now we want the time and not the watch!" describes well why we took the decision taking a break from regular life.
2 However, my leadership skills, being the captain, have constantly been in play.
Besides the family, we had crew and guests on board most of the time and on a small 42 feet boat keeping a motivated crew and a well-functioning ship means constant work. Decision-making, coaching, delegation, problem solving, project management and of course change management due to Corona are skills I have used. Not only 9- 17, but 24/7. Therefore, I strongly believe I have grown on this journey, not only as a person, but also as a leader!
