Expanding Book Sprint Team

The Book Sprints team is expanding! Due to the increased interest in Book Sprints the team is expanding to include a new business manager, a new facilitator and we have a new business – Book Sprints Limited.

René Post joins as the business manager. René has many years experience as an innovative and successful entrepreneur building businesses from the ground up. René has known about Book Sprints from the beginning having mentored Adam Hyde through the early stages of FLOSS Manuals in 2006/7. René is from the Netherlands and currently lives in Sweden.

Barbara Ruehling joins Book Sprints as a facilitator. Barbara is an anthropologist and has a rich background in facilitating in educational and cultural contexts. Barbara is fluent in English, Spanish and German which will extend the language base of the Book Sprints facilitation team. Barbara is born in Germany and currently lives in Berlin.

In addition Book Sprints Limited has been set up as a company in New Zealand. Founder Adam Hyde lives between Berlin and Whangarei Heads (New Zealand) and hence it was decided to establish the company in his home country. René and Adam are the company’s directors.
