We asked Gerben to be the chairman of the day for the Employer Branding Summit, which attracts 400 visitors every year. <\/span><\/p>

For us an important event and we see the chairman of the day as key to success. Gerben did a fantastic job of this for us. From the preliminary stage, Gerben is very involved.<\/p>

He listens well, asks the right questions, is thoughtful and immersed in the subject. On the day, he brings an energetic atmosphere to the room. He is professional and holds the audience's attention, getting everyone into his story. He really carried the event for us and made it a success!<\/p>

We look back on an incredibly pleasant cooperation and should you be looking for a keynote or day chairman, look no further. We highly recommend Gerben.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

As moderator, Gerben is the link between the specialist and the audience. Gerben immerses himself in the subject and puts himself in the audience's shoes, allowing him to raise the right questions.<\/span><\/p>

In addition, he knows exactly how to explain complicated material and jargon in understandable language. In between, he gives a short summary of what was discussed, which works very well.<\/p>

In short, Gerben is a very experienced and professional moderator, can switch quickly and is pleasant to work with.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Every year, in front of more than 10,000 viewers, we host the LYNX Investor Debate, where macroeconomists and investment experts discuss developments in the financial markets live.

The debate consists of a mix of short statements, longer discussions, group discussions and one-on-one debates. Gerben flawlessly manages to combine these different elements and distils the key insights in a way that is accessible and engaging for all.

The enthusiastic response from viewers underlines the important role Gerben has played in the success of the debate over the past two years. We look back with great satisfaction on our cooperation with Gerben and his proactive and enthusiastic preparation of the event.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Choosing Gerben van Driel as moderator for our live panel discussion was important in putting down a good broadcast. (His professional guidance ensured an interesting, well-run conversation with depth, with space for the individual speakers and discussion.

Gerben knows how to hold the core of the conversation, dares to steer where necessary and ensures that our viewers' questions were also addressed). Guiding interviews is a profession. It requires experience, thorough preparation and relaxed execution; conditions that Gerben sets professionally.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Day chairman is a very important role, it is extremely difficult to do well. And it is a serious profession!<\/p>

Seen very bad chairmen of the day (but really very bad) but also very good ones, like Gerben van Driel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Gerben understands incredibly well how much you do (and do not) put of yourself in the role of chairman of the day... energy, subtlety, humour, but above all making the speakers shine!!! Very knowledgeable.<\/p>

I have a business background. I studied business administration, worked at ABN Amro and RTL Z and read the FD. So I have an excellent grasp of topics on business, finance, tech, innovation, transformation, etc. But I also worked at Multicultural Television Netherlands, for example. And so some background in Diversity & Inclusion.<\/p>

I have been incredibly searching for \u2018What do I want with my life?\u2019 and have had to reinvent myself several times. For that reason, I have a feel for issues around Personal Development and Labour Market. So I am at home on several markets.<\/p>

Unsure if I can help you? Just take\u00a0contact<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>up and let's discuss it. I will always tell you if I can't work out with your question.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

I believe in customisation and want to be involved in your event. In other words: I want to know what you want to achieve with the event. Who is sitting in the room (or watching at home). What the hot issues are that need to be discussed. And when the event is a success for you.<\/p>

With that firmly in mind, I then apply all my knowledge, expertise and experience to achieve the maximum result. We discuss it beforehand, I read up, spar with you on the outline and then make sure I exceed your expectations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
