Network

A good partner is extremely valuable. Sometimes, however, extra capacity can provide just that little push, thereby allowing success to fall within reach. Or sometimes specific expertise is needed which Antonie Reichling could not, or did not want to give you himself. This could be due to the field falling outside the scope of his services, his expertise or his experience. Such as Behavioural Training, Financial Expertise, or In-depth Statistical Analysis. If that was what you needed, Antonie gladly offered you access to an extensive network. As a broker in expertise, he suggested expert and reliable network partners to you; partners who attended to you as you would expect from Antonie -someone who worked as a trusted partner and with whom you could work either through Antonie or directly.
Antonie also acted on behalf of, among others, Relevance (formerly Schouten Global) in Zaltbommel, projectmanagement-training.net in Amsterdam, Global Management Consultants in Dubai, EIPA in Maastricht, and EFE-IFE Benelux in Brussels.
