Regine Dhaene

In her approach to information management, Regine takes a strong holistic and integrated approach in all aspects and phases. From strategy and vision development to overcoming organizational hurdles in setting up information governance, and finally to insight creation. As the insight in information is the only thing that glues everything together and creates new value in business, a holistic approach is crucial. As data privacy and protection become more and more important in the digital era, she strongly believes in integrating the different information domains.

Design, architecture, portfolio management, project and program management are methods that she applies to translate concepts into realistic and feasible steps, thus bringing real added value to the business and the customer.

Working in multi-disciplinary teams and complex environments is where she thrives. Taking people along the journey is key in the transformation of organizations. Eagerness to learn and sharing of knowledge with the team and customer feeds the drive to provide the best solution for each customer.

Regine holds more than twenty years of experience in several sectors and has held various executive roles in her career. Among these are COO, business- and information architect, program- and project manager, business analyst, line manager and management consultant.  She acted as program manager and Corporate Information Officer for one of the largest retail groups in Belgium, where she was responsible for establishing an information transformation program. Building upon the solid foundation of a well-formulated information strategy, all E2E components were developed, i.e. policies, governance, architecture, master data, data quality, analytics and BIG data. Regine holds a Master and  Post-master in Accountancy, an international MBA and is a certified EU Data Protection Officer.
