During my time at Brightlabs Han proved to be an excellent MD and mentor for myself, and the rest of the team. His knowledge and understanding of business operations, HR, finance etc all made for a much better working environment and productive outcome for the business. I worked with Han to have Brightlabs be ISO:9001 certified for several years, which involved team-wide policy and process optimisation and constant evaluation of the quality and performance of our services.

I had learned a lot of important techniques, skills, and lessons from working closely with Han - all of which have contributed greatly to my own career.

Zal Meher-Homji, Account Director and Digital Strategist at Brightlabs

Han te Riele has a super-human ability to consistently accomplish big business goals. In my work as an executive coach, Han is in the top 5% when it comes to hitting his goals as a leader. Yet he doesn't work alone; he cares about his team (while holding people accountable), and he cares about contributing to the larger community. Once you work with him, you'll quickly see this for yourself.

Karl Sakas, Agency Consultant at Sakas & Company

I loved working with Han. He brings vast senior experience across many aspects of the digital space, from strategy right through to leading and shaping the delivery team. His easy-going, positive, and energetic nature make Han an engaging and productive leader, and he has a unique ability to connect with people, including really listening to and learning what a client needs. This enables Han to network, establish relationships, and shape and sell the right offering. Any business looking to engage with Han is lucky to have him on board.

I met Han through the mentoring program from the University of Melbourne. Being myself a first time mentor back then, I had the opportunity to learn from Han and experience first-hand some of the exceptional qualities Han possesses, such as professionalism, optimism and kindness. Having worked together with different mentees and in different settings, I know Han’s leadership will always enable a fantastic and productive work environment and deliver successful outcomes in every task Han can embark on.

Andres Torres, Strategic Product Manager at Ericsson

Han has been a fantastic mentor during his participation in the Faculty of Business and Economics Career Mentoring Program at the University of Melbourne. The aim of this Faculty based program is to assist current undergraduate and graduate business students with their career development and to engage business professionals in a mutually beneficial partnership. Han's mentees have been very appreciative and provided great feedback about Han's coaching skills to support their personal and professional development and understanding of career goals and aspirations.

Han has been a valuable member of our mentoring community and we would always welcome him back to participate in the program again. Many thanks again for your time and commitment to our mentoring program, Han!
