About (Bio):

Saskia helps organisations design better products (and services) faster. She specialises in improving productivity to help teams deliver a consistent flow of new products ‘faster, better, more profitable’ and with more fun!

She has a passion for progress and an obsession with implementation. She is driven to help people to deliver great work. She loves seeing teams be in control, delivering their craft together beautifully. She has a very practical approach, with a people lens, and makes the complex easy, giving you time back in your day so you can do your job better.

Born in the Netherlands and based in Queenstown, New Zealand, Saskia is backed by the rare mix of a Master’s degree in Industrial Design Engineering from Technische Universiteit Delft (one of the best in Europe), and a marketing degree, and has worked as a speaker, trainer, coach, facilitator and mentor with many of the top national companies over the past 20 years.
