Leo is completely himself, and lets other people be themselves. He’s fun to work with and creates a safe atmosphere. In Dutch, we would say he has 'voelsprieten', which means being able to feel the room and notice when someone is not feeling alright.

Leo did a great job supervising me and 3 other students during our bachelor end projects. He stimulated us to think deeply about and beyond subjects by asking critical questions. We were given the space to shape our own project and guided where needed. Leo is very friendly and project meetings were both formal and informal, which made the working environment pleasant.
