Siska Van Houtte

"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning how to dance in the rain." 

Siska earned her doctorate, worked as a project manager in the pharmaceutical sector, and then made the leap to the non-profit sector as a manager in a large organization for children with disabilities. Her strengths: thinking about the future, supporting and mobilizing employees and teams, and guiding projects and processes. She easily puts difficult matters into words while still staying connected. 

Siska always approaches a new context with excitement and energy, think of ‘Alice in Changeland’. Her passion and fire burn especially brightly when it comes to creating an equal place for people with disabilities. In doing so, she stays far away from patronizing. Time to push the boundaries and strive for a society where everyone truly matters!
