Business Model Me

Due to digitization, people are changing. May it be as a customer with new expectations towards verndors, may it be as an employee with new expectations towards employers. To find out what one has to offer as an employee, we have to do some self-reflection.

Since 2000 here's a great tool to perform such a self-research.It's based on the well-known Business Model Canvas and it is called Business Model You.To find out more about this exciting methodology have a look at the website https://businessmodelyou.com/.

I thought, that it would be a good idea,to put my personal business canvas online, because my expertise is a product which I "sell" to a company which pays me by wages and which sells me to the company's customers. Therefor this imethodology was developed by Tim Clark. During my participation in a WOL (Working Out Loud) Circle I got down to work.

If you want to see the large version (makes only sense on tablet or desktop due to the size), click the graphic and a new tab will open and you can explore the full size canvas.

Please. understand that I do not publish my testimonies online

You find my CV interesting and you would like to see my certificates? Then send me a message and I'll send you my testimonials asap.

I look forward to receiving your message.

Sincerely yours,

Rob van Linda
