Verena asks: “Is there another way to look at IT?”
Verena is a global biz woman with vision, an executive coach, consultant, writer, speaker and trainer with a Dutch/Singaporean heritage and raised in the U.S. As owner of Vibrant Visions International, Verena aims to inspire and catalyze visionaries worldwide to vibrantly express, publish, and attain visibility for their vision through leadership training, coaching, Top Ten article writing, marketing communications, consulting, and public speaking. Verena has a jovial and irreverent way of seeing things and putting things together. Her perspective often goes beyond what the average person expresses, admits to, or can even see.
Achieving the Inconceivable: In the early ‘90’s, Verena talked her way into an internship position for the German government soon after the Berlin Wall was dismantled and Germany became unified. With only 40 hours’ German language training prior to arriving in Berlin, she was soon dubbed “Eagle Eye” because she had a knack for finding evidence of counterfeited documents, German typographical errors, and deciphering the old German script in key documents. Verena was soon hired on as a consultant and was responsible for researching and computerizing a database of several thousands of properties that had been taken over during the Communist error. She was able to build cases proving extensive historical scenarios of these properties to assist the legal teams fighting to return properties to their original owners or receive restitution for the properties.
