Personal profile
Tim Birdsall is a dual national from the UK and Switzerland and partner at werk4. His main training language is English, although he regularly trains in German for his long-term clients. Working as a professional trainer since 1999 he has always been involved in an international setting gaining wide and helpful intercultural knowledge.
Due to the often global setting of his clients, blended learning - combining face2face with a variety of virtual settings - has been standard for over 20 years. His enthusiasm for training as well as the appropriate usage of technology to create a pragmatic learning experience is a key element of every engagement for clients such as IBM, Henkel, Eli-Lilly, Daikin, Span and Dynatrace.
Tim's world-wide experience has created a multinational network of like-minded trainers that often work together, deepening their mutual knowledge on the basis of long-term relationships.
He lives with his family in Vienna and in his free time enjoys reading, cooking and "messing about in boats".
