Born and raised in Belgium. Schooled in the Netherlands. From leading a branding agency to fullservice broadcast productions; Kees combines two decades of expertise to transform the world of Learning & Development as founder of Learnforce.

Kees loves to dive into complex content and digest as much information as possible in order to come up with fresh learning concepts. He’s well known for his execution power, bright ideas and vision on L&D.

You’ll find him on his motorcycle in the weekends, in his quest to visit some of the best chefs in the world or in a conversation on the power of purpose. He is at his best when his creativity is required to solve complex learning and activation challenges. Besides that, he is recognised by his clients and colleagues for his laughter, uplifting spirit, genuine interest and presentation skills.

Grew up in the countryside, moved to the city. Driven by curiosity and irrepressible hunger to get to the bottom of the nitty-gritty of processes, businesses and people’s habits.

Dirk lives for the challenge of making sense of complex situations, always thinking one step ahead and connecting information, processes and data resulting in a concrete and effective learning & development or change approach. Whether it is campaign-based learning, organisational mapping or (senior) leadership, he enjoys working with teams that need to challenge the current status quo and are open to change.

Brimming with ideas and a great desire to make things whole again, Dirk loves to fix, bake, brew or make anything broken that has a link to an unconventional way of producing. For our clients, Dirk is an open, approachable sparring partner who effectively helps you take the next step in your L&D strategy and implementation.

Our dedicated L&D Creative, Mans, has one clear goal: to make learning enjoyable. Because, according to Mans, learning and development rank among the most satisfying experiences.

As a knowledge-focused creative, Mans translates practical information into vibrant stories that captivate. Drawing from extensive experience in the television and advertising world, Mans knows how to spark curiosity and sustain attention with relevant and engaging content. Add Mans’ passion for education to the mix, and you have the perfect blend for developing innovative learning methods that truly resonate. Concepts through which Mans fosters a culture of continuous learning.

Interestingly, that inexhaustible creativity is entirely absent in the kitchen. At Learnforce, Mans is known as the kitchen klutz. Fortunately, this is compensated by an excellent taste in music. Mans can identify the artist at the first note of a song. That’s why guessing songs is Mans’ favorite hobby, and in that realm, it’s always 1-0 for Mans.
