Joost Cassee

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.

Joost is attentive to both people and technical details. He asks the right questions, finds fitting solutions and crafts the beautiful software you expected.

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.

Few people know both software development and infrastructures like Joost. He is a systems thinker, innovative, without losing sight of the end goal.

Joost has introduced the word ‘business value’ into our software development process and delivered upon it.

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.
