Joost Cassee

Joost and I work together on an innovative, politically complex program at Rijkswaterstaat, Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Environment. I know Joost as a calm, attentive and thoughtful personality, being able to listen, understand and work with multidisciplinary teams. Joost is interested in innovations and follows the trends development on the ICT market. His expertise in Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment has been a key success factor to the program. I am really happy to have Joost in my team.

Joost is a person with a creative mind and a wide area of interests. With his structured approach and impressive technical skillset he has helped our multi team organization to bring our delivery pipeline to the next level. He is also very pleasant to work with and the first one I would think about to hire again for other projects.

Joost provided clear practical insights and conceptual inspiration for the Bachelors students Information Management of our Open Data Course.

My relationship with Joost Cassee has benefited me and my projects beyond expectation. The process that Joost advised on helped transform development teams to become more self-organizing, cross-functional and autonomous. Joost is a product thinker with an innovative and Agile mind-set. He has incredible knowledge and uses this in a respectful way to team members and other stakeholders.

Joost has the ability to get into complex matter in a very short time frame and become a respected expert. He has the talent of quickly understanding the user’s needs in these matters. He can communicate about it in a very clear and understandable manner, and in addition has the ability to sparkle the stakeholders’ enthusiasm in the process.

I have such an immense respect for Joost, not just because I think he is an incredibly smart person, but because he is humble about his knowledge and very respectful in his way of sharing it. The thing I find most inspiring about him is the fact that he is able to look beyond what people think they can do and encourage them and guide them into doing it.
