Willem Kossen’s Summary

ICT is een middel, geen doel op zich. ICT helpt organisaties hun doelen efficienter en effectiever te bereiken. Overigens is ICT geen 'faciliteit'. Het is een bedrijfskritisch productiemiddel. ICT verdient om die reden in elke organisatie aandacht op het hoogte niveau. Dat is mijn visie op ICT.

M&I/Partners is mijn werkgever. We zoeken nog nieuwe collega's, neem contact op met mij voor meer informatie.

Ik wil het volgende bereiken met mijn werk:
Goede kwaliteit advisering aan diverse klanten omtrent ICT verandertrajecten, infrastructuur, beveiliging, en inbedding in de organisatie van ICT componenten en systemen met aandacht voor alle integratie aspecten die daarmee samenhangen. Daar ga en sta ik voor.

I also happen to be the moderator of the linkedIN groups Coornhert Gymnasium Alumni, IMN Alumni, M&I/Partners, WUR-Alumni, Apache Wizards, Blues and Toyota Prius Owners.
