Femke Bartels
Executive Leadership Program - Amsterdam Class 01
Since April 2016, I have been the Managing Director of THNK. Born in the Netherlands, I studied Political Sciences and International Relations at the University of Amsterdam, followed by a Master of Public Administration at the University of Twente. Being part of THNK Class 1, I am a founding participant of the Executive Leadership Program.
Throughout my career, I have successfully worked with internally distributed teams. As such, I have a long history of setting up public campaigns to achieve social change. During my former job as Executive Director at Greenpeace Mexico, I provided leadership, vision and strategic direction to 150 employees, 4 offices, 3000 volunteers, 50.000 donors and over a million supporters.
I am innovative and results-driven. I am passionate and inspired by multiculturalism, by cross-fertilizing projects with insights and ideas from around the world.
