Short introduction
- What gives you energy, at work or outside of work?
- Meeting new people, creative ideas and meaningful conversations.
- What are you most proud of? (professionally or personally)?
- My professional journey, combined with raising three children.
- Which development within media, marketing or communication are you currently following with particular interest?
- Anything related to AI. GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) is also something I'm keeping a close eye on. I'm still a huge fan of print, but we need to reinvent ourselves and find innovative and surprising ways to deliver value to readers.
- What do few people know about you?
- I'd love to take singing lessons and go skydiving one day.
- Which app do you use more often than you would like to admit?
- WhatsApp. My personal and professional lives are becoming increasingly intertwined, which might not be such a good thing.
- If you had a time machine, which period or event would you travel to, and why?
- A time when life was simpler and moved at a slower pace.
Evelyne's recommendations
- Which podcast, newsletter, series or book would you currently recommend?
- Afterhours by HRmagazine. I'm the host myself and I'm always looking for feedback to keep improving.
- If you could give one piece of advice to young media professionals, what would it be?
- Stay true to yourself. The media industry is a wonderful but challenging field to work in.
Last but not least
- Who would you nominate for a future edition of ‘Kennismaken met…’?
- Stephanie Popovic
- What is your favorite quote?
- Reculer pour mieux sauter. (Take a step back to leap further forward.)
