Jan Huckfeldt

“I had the pleasure of working with Jan on several occasions in the past 10 years or so. On every occasion it has helped me grow myself as marketer. He pushes for a healthy mix of approaching things in a very structured, data driven manner while looking for creative angles that make the brand or campaign distinctive. Being part of his staff in the global Motorola marketing team was a ride filled with intellectual strategic discussions about marketing, creative workshops to bring to live great ideas, great team spirit and hard work that lead to results. Jan has the capacity of creating a strong team around him with different backgrounds, skills and personalities but form a group that brings out the best in everyone. His views and approach on marketing puts it right where it needs to be : in a strategic role that grows the business. ”

“I had the pleasure and privilege of working very closely with Jan on the Lenovo Global Marketing Leadership Team. Over the five years we partnered together, I found that Jan excels in the three areas that are absolutely critical to building global brands. He is the smartest analytical thinker I know, bringing rigor and discipline to even the most complex marketing challenges. He is a truly creative spirit with an eye for great work and the patience and perseverance to bring it to life. And he is a passionate leader who leads from the front and takes great pride in seeing his teams push past their limits and achieve their goals. You simply don't find these three traits at a world-class level in a single human. I highly recommend that anyone who has the chance to work with (or for) Jan in the future should jump on the opportunity.”
