In this episode we are celebrating the career to date of Justin Ammerlaan. Justin has spent the majority of his career to date with the Dutch bank ING and with BMW's leasing company Alphabet. He has lived in the Netherlands, America, Italy and Germany. All of which makes him a knowledgeable commercial leader in the international automotive and mobility sector. He has a focus on achieving growth, innovation and customer satisfaction in complex and competitive environments. And he is fascinated by everything related to sustainable mobility and energy. He is often described by others as 'a driving force', someone who gets things done. In our conversation we talk about how once he'd decided on business as an interesting route to take he became involved in digitisation and direct sales from the beginning of his career. He shares his experience with ING and then living through the acquisition by BMW's leasing company, Alphabet, and his onward trajectory within the new business. I learned the delightful story of how he met the woman who'd become his wife in Italy and why and how they felt the need to keep their relationship secret. Justin very generously lets us in on the challenges he faced that caused him to re-evaluate his path and the approach he has taken to preparing for the next phase of his life and career. I absolutely loved listening to Justin's story. I'm very proud to share it and I look forward to hearing what resonates with you.
