I am Gerbrand Tjaden, partner of Nicolien and proud father of two children. With a background in accountancy and several CFO positions to my name, I know better than anyone what information organizations need to make good decisions.
From finance to data
It is this combination of finance experience with its emphasis on data-driven management information and affinity with technology that enables me to participate in discussions at every level, from operational to strategic. I understand what people on the work floor and what is going on in the boardroom are concerned about, and can connect those worlds. Finance people understand the business and know what management information really counts. Data and technology make it possible to deliver that information automatically, reliably and scalably. Connecting those two worlds is where my strength lies.
Steering information without manual work
I’m always looking for ways to do everything more efficiently. Making as much impact as possible with as little manual effort as possible. Steering information created automatically by combining business knowledge with technology: that’s what I believe in.
“Finance and data are closer together than people think. Both revolve around one thing: making the right decision based on facts. And that only becomes really powerful when everyone in an organization is looking at the same truth that is available in real time without manual labor.”
One truth as the foundation
