NÜ JANNIE ABOUT RENÉ What is Renés biggest strength? His ability to give out good vibes and get people to join him! He is excellent at generating enthusiasm. What is René’s most annoying habit? No matter how many prints I’ve made, he always wants just one more. Why are you a good match professionally? Because we’re very different from each other. I am not at all good at the stuff he’s good at. I’m not a sales person, but he definitely is. RENÉ ABOUT JANNIE What is Jannie’s biggest strength? Her personality and her brilliant ability to al- ways stay positive – and yet go straight to the point if necessary. She always does it in a very constructive way, so no one feels overrun. Add to that her special sense of NÜ’s distinc- tive style. What is Jannie’s most annoying habit? She has a system in the design department, where the creatives, when identifying a cer- tain style goes “It’s the one with...” – and then they clap their hands and slap their thighs, and then they just know which style it is. Everyone except me. I only recognize styles by a name or a boring number. Why are you a good match professionally? Because we’re very much alike. We are both enthusiastic and passionate. We have more energy than most others, but we still manage to stay on top of things. I’d go as far as to saying that we bring out the best in each other, and that has a positive effect on the rest of the organisation.
