Kurt
Desmedt
Senior Consultant
Kurt joins the TimmerHaus team from an incredible, progressive career within the world of Executive Search and Recruitment. Built on academic foundations in psychology and psychoanalysis, Kurt’s subsequent commercial evolution has invited partnerships with a diverse audience internationally, where he has left a transformational footprint through the profound work he has done.
Discerning, good humoured and able to listen actively, attentively and objectively, Kurt supports clients to connect the dots and discover the essence of their professional challenges resulting in powerful insights and results.
Kurt prides himself on the depth with which he connects to other professionals. Rich intellectual exchange, curiosity and indulgent conversations underpin a mutual exploration of goals and encourage the visualisation of ambition destinations. Kurt’s uncanny ability to identify the salient features of situation or experience and extrapolate them, contributes to deeper understanding and connection to the ‘bigger picture’.
When this ‘dissectologist’ is not professionally engaged, he can be found immersed in flow and creativity. A avid painter, Kurt takes his inspiration from artists who combine their technical skills with rich intellectual depth. Accompanying the process is an eclectic array of music from classical, to jazz, to pop (tastes that elicit amusing critique from his children!). In quieter moments, Kurt loves nothing more than to ease into a good book for private stimulation – always seeking to learn something new or at the very least, be surprised by the unexpected…
