Welcome to the Briddge Academy!


Why the Academy was founded

At the moment we have a team of approximately 100 people, and we have reached a point where will enter into a new phase of the company in order to allow us to keep growing and developing, both for you as an individual and for Briddge as a company. 

We see a need for a more efficient way to work together, both within teams and across teams, for an easier way to find and share information and for more insight into what we are doing and how we are doing.

An infrastructure that allows each Briddge team member to excel in their work and provide high quality services and advice that adds value to our clients, while doing so in a cost-effective manner. We believe that an organization that is built to bring out the best in you, will bring the best to our clients.

How does the platform work?

Instructor

Dick Pouw

With over twenty years of experience as a 'change agent' in the field of customer care, ICT and Business Intelligence, you can safely say: I know the playing field inside out. As an interim consultant, I facilitate management and boards in strategy formulation and offer opportunities to work towards a data-driven organization that moves smoothly along with customer expectations. I offer change programs and coach management and employees so that they become fully data literate. In this way, together we lift customer focus to a higher level.
