Rudy D'hauwe’s Summary

Senior Project Manager. Managing Director at UsToBe.

I am a pragmatic and result driven project manager with an extensive technical background in the engineering of large and complex software applications.

I am especially experienced with the management of two types of projects:

* Projects that are failing or have failed and need "healing"

* Business reengineering projects that include (1) the modeling, improvement and reengineering of business processes, (2) the architecture, design and development of new software, and (3) the integration and synchronization with existing legacy systems.

As a native Dutch speaker, I have worked many years in French speaking environments. I have presented many technical workshops, trainings and seminars as well in Dutch as in French and English.
