Thomas de Klerk works as a learning consultant and trainer at Info Support, where he spends much of his time helping people make sense of complex technology — including AI.
His background is not purely technical. Early in his career he trained as a teacher at university level, later specialising in Human Resource Development. That combination still shapes how he looks at technology today: not just in terms of what it can do, but how people think, learn and make decisions around it.
His work now sits somewhere between training, facilitation and experimentation. He designs workshops, learning journeys and the occasional escape room to explore how people actually work with tools like AI in practice.
He uses AI himself, daily — which is exactly why he keeps questioning what it does to his own thinking.

Coach agile et coach professionnel, j’accompagne les transformations des organisations depuis plus de 15 ans.

Issu d’un parcours en ingénierie informatique, en finance et en entrepreneuriat, j’ai évolué dans les systèmes d’information comme développeur, chef de projet, directeur de projet et consultant en organisation.
