Jasper Postema Operational Readiness, Crisis Response & Training Specialist

Jasper has more than 25 years of experience in military and law-enforcement specialist units, serving with the Royal Netherlands Marine Corps, the Special Operations Brigade of the Royal Netherlands Military Police and the Dutch National Police Special Intervention Unit.

Starting as an operator and later moving into leadership and command roles, he has worked across specialist intervention, counter-terrorism and high-risk operations in national and international environments. His experience includes leading multidisciplinary specialist teams, incident command, operational planning, training and capability development, and coordinating with military, police, government and other specialist organisations.

Alongside the operational side of his work, Jasper has developed extensive experience in building and preparing teams to function effectively under pressure. His particular interest is in the relationship between team culture, trust, leadership and decision-making when circumstances change and information is incomplete.

He now applies that experience to operational readiness, training, exercises and assessment, helping organisations prepare their people and teams for complex and demanding situations.
