Speaker & Advisor
Sustainability and corporate transition — with the experience of Shell, McKinsey, and co-founder of "Employees for our Future" as my compass.
About
With a background at Shell, McKinsey, INSEAD and TU Delft, I'm the prototype corporate professional. Until November 2022 I trusted the system blindly — a techno-optimist who believed innovation would fix everything without changing how we live.
Reading The Climate Book changed that. I'm not a born believer, but someone who was awoken — which is exactly why I can put myself in the shoes of the majority who aren't there yet. I chaired Shell's green team for two years, then left in 2025 to found Employees for our Future (ANBI).
I speak the language of business from the inside, and I build the bridge few can: between the corporate world, politics, and the climate movement.

In their own words
Refreshing. This is a way of looking at sustainability and the transition that makes me want to get involved too.
Arjan relates to how I and my colleagues feel. That builds trust and creates the connection that really matters.
After the session I asked a critical question in our management team for the first time — and found my colleagues felt the same way.
Arjan knows so much. On every point he can contribute from science or business reality. That makes him invaluable on this journey.
