Career
After studying Business Administration and Diplomacy, Jasper began his career in HR at a leading multinational company in the Netherlands. As a high potential, he was selected for the company’s talent development program. Although the societal picture of a high salary, a home of his own, and a challenging job seemed complete, after several years he realized it was not his picture. Struggling with a strong feeling of “is this all?”, he decided to leave. Shortly after his departure, the first statistics emerged showing that stress and burnout rates had risen most sharply within his generation. He wanted to understand the purpose and stress issues affecting his generation and discover the best solutions. This search resulted in the bestselling book The Millennial Mystery. The insights from this book and his ongoing research are now shared through his work as a highly sought-after speaker, helping organizations effectively navigate a multigenerational work environment.
