Hi, I'm David. I work on Modern Work, AI and processes.
Manager Microsoft & Community Lead Modern Work, more than ten years between people, processes and Microsoft technology. In the evenings I build ad-free web tools.
Leadership & Community
Building teams, passing on knowledge, making room for exchange. People before tools.
AI & Copilot
From choosing the use cases through piloting to adoption and impact in daily work.
Modern Work & M365
Strategy, adoption and governance, so the tools arrive in daily work.
Process Automation
Make it visible, simplify it, automate it, with Power Platform, Nintex and M365.
Community & Speaking
Making room for exchange.
As Community Lead Modern Work I look after a group of colleagues across locations, with formats for exchange, learning and a sense of connection, and with the topics that concern all of us, AI above all. Most of it comes from the group rather than from me. On top of that: workshops, trainings and mentoring, for years now and happily on stage.

What actually keeps an internal community alive
Internal communities don't fail because of the tool, but because nobody tends them. What actually keeps a Modern Work community alive, from practice.
