What our customers say

Han asked incisive questions and shared his extensive experience in building and scaling companies. His goal-oriented approach and deep understanding of scaling challenges have greatly helped my company.

I have experienced Han as a goal-oriented mentor with a practical approach. He distills complex matters down to their essence. He provides guidance with tips, cases, and information but lets you determine the path to your solution yourself.

Han has helped me from the role of mentor to build a faster growing business with less stress. Han does this by not telling me how it “should be done” but how it “can be done”. What helps me: during a session Han grabs a moment to bring me from the idea “if you are in control then you are not growing fast enough” with a positive goal in “maximum confusion” with both hands 🙂

Han has really helped me scale and structure my business over the years. His practical knowledge and expertise in certain areas have always been important in pushing my business forward and helping me personally jump through hoops that would otherwise cost me a lot of time and money. Being mentored by Han over the years has been very valuable.
