Active behind the scenes …

I oversee all the Works Council’s processes. How can I do this for you? While suiting all parties, I plan Works Council meetings; deliver clear and workable meeting-agenda’s; document readable and relevant minutes and create dynamic action lists.
Within your own digital environment, I will file relevant documents logically, so that the members can find what they need easily. If anyone should have to miss a meeting, they can easily get back on track.
In short, I provide the magical framework.

… alert during meetings …

I serve as the expert consultant on the Works Council Act. I can be the group’s collective memory to avoid redundancy. During meetings, I ensure everything on the agenda gets it’s due attention. I am the Works Council’s conscience, I will make sure everybody gets their say. By asking in-depth questions I make sure the majority agrees with a decision. Attention to the human element in a meeting is my trademark.

… I will make sure that your Works Council adds more value.

Because I diplomatically coach and support Works Council members during the often complex decision making process, members can fully focus on the Works Council’s real task: to balance the interests of the organization with those of the employees. Then the Works Council can truly add value to your organization

    “You promised to build us a well-structured Works Council. You achieved this goal in no time and it made a world of difference. Thanks to you, the Works Council runs smoothly now.”

    “The value of meeting minutes for effective Works Council processes is often underestimated. Not by me, nor by Hanneke. She knows how to transform minutes into the desired instrument for decision making processes. This way, agreements indeed lead towards action.”

    “Hanneke can separate fact from emotion in a pleasant way. Due to her diplomatic wording, she helps keep the relationship between the organization and the Works Council professional and in the meantime she manages to avoid escalation, though she is not too shy to share her sharp analytics. It has been sheer pleasure to work with her during 14 years.”

    “Thank you for streamlining, expanding and improving our freshly started Works Council. Thank you for your upbeat, brisk and positive contribution. Thank you for your diplomatic approach. We really klicked.”
