BADIR SHIR

After graduating for my bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, I started as technical support engineer in the electronic security industry at Tyco. Realizing that my people skills were unused in a pure technical role I decided to turn my career in a commercial direction. For the next 10 years I worked for large multinationals and start-ups in commercial roles ranging from key account manager to sales director. While doing my EMBA at Maastricht University I got interested in Marketing and landed a job with Bosch Security and Safety as regional product marketing manager EMEA. Now I work as an independent contractor for NVT Phybridge and PVS. My character is described by persons around me as: honest, what you see is what you get, determined and ambitious. Creative Business Development Manager with impressive track record of improving sales and growing company customer base. Innovative program management, strategic planning and team leadership skills. Successful team builder with exceptional communication abilities.
