Micro and small businesses often struggle with organisational structure or don't have the capacity to tackle extra projects. This can make achieving their goals as well as sustainable growth more difficult.
How can I help your business
And that's where I come in! I am a freelance Online Project, Business & Operations Manager and I offer systems and structure to micro and small businesses using LEAN methodologies.

How I work
Working with me is Simple. What's in a name right?
Using the Simple.Framework we take these steps:
1. Start Investigation
We establish what we want to achieve together, what goals to reach or problems to solve.
2. Make Plan
How are we going to achieve operational excellence and solve the existing problems.
3. Let's Execute
We take action by implementing the plan and solutions.
Review
We'll review and monitor the implemented solutions, refine when appropriate and tackle the next obstacle if needed.
What is the Simple.Framework
The Simple.Framework draws from several sources to create a cohesive and effective approach to project management and business operations. This framework is rooted in the Dutch consensus-based decision-making method known as "the polder model." This method has been described as a pragmatic recognition of pluriformity and cooperation despite differences. Additionally, it incorporates some of my inherent Nordic efficiency and directness, and is supported by internationally recognised LEAN Six Sigma project management methodology.
Why the Simple.Framework and not just use LEAN Six Sigma or other project management methodologies? Because I work mostly with small businesses and startups, I noticed very quickly that the steps in "traditional" project management methodologies were a bit overwhelming, technical and dare I say "to much" for a lot of my clients. Therefore, I have taken the good elements, infused them with my personal experience and qualities and translated them to a more approachable framework that my clients love to work with.
