Alke Buitkamp
Alke Buitkamp, born in Bremen,Germany, has played the trom-bone
(Jazz, Funk and Soul)since she was nine. For thisreason, she was
early interestedin music management as well asin organisation and
marketing.With a view to pursuing this as aprofession, she first
became amusic teacher and then movedto Hamburg where she studiedin
business studies and mediamanagement.
For financing her studies, shewas working for internet agen-cies
at the editorial and pro-gramming department. In doingso, she
attracted great interestin working in the private entre-prise and
developed her skills inthe project management. Con-sequently, she
engaged herselfin projects for Deutsche Luf-thansa and
Kraft.Through further duties as theproject manager for the man-
agement department of ServiceLevel Agreements (SLA) andthe
introduction of CRM-sys-
tems, she had preference for thefunction as a connector whoopens
up communication be-tween them within the medium-sized corporate
structure.She acquired a good knowledgefor project management,
qualitymanagement and training sothat she had a broad experiencein
that industry.This professional career wasvery well qualified to go
intobusiness for herself in the city ofHamburg (Speicherstadt)
in2003. Since then, she has con-sulted with companies on
theseservices such as interim man-agement, optimisation of thesales
department as soon as the
support of the change manage-ment processes and trainings inthe
entire region of NorthernGermany. Banks, insurancecompanies,
consultant agen-cies, puplic organisations, craftentreprises and
productioncompanies benefit from thisproduct range (of
services).Alke Buitkamp is really con-vinced that there are
tailor-madesolutions for any demand andtask. Therefore, you must
some-
times follow unconventionaltacks to meet the customersneeds. At
the same time, theunderstanding of customers andits corporate
structure is in thecenter of attention.Through the marriage with
itsten-year-old long-distance rela-tionship, her main place of
resi-dence has moved to Hanoverfor the time being. Is there
anyspare time for hobbies? Yes,there is for good food such as
the French and Thai cuisine inparticular. In addition to
this,there is always spare time for
bicycling in the range of hills inthe citys back garden, the
De-ister that invites anyone to enjoypeace and recreation in
itsmagnificient forests of beechand pine (and in the Jura,
theFrench mountain range). As amatter of course, she has still
adesire to enjoy this musical lifeto the full as a trombonist
play-ing at the Hanoverian big band.
Since 2009, Alke has beenworking as a freelance trainerand
consultant for theMACHWRTH TEAMINTERNATIONAL.
