About Matthijs

Work plays a big role in your daily life – and it should feel right!

With that belief, Matthijs starteded his own coaching practice: to help individuals and teams work better together, develop themselves, and find their place. His goal is to guide people in this process.

Matthijs Kramer is the Director of Alterego Games, but also a trained psychologist and coach.

Matthijs’ strength lies in building teams, ensuring the right people are in the right places, and resolving issues that arise from personalities and communication. Just like in his coaching practice, he can help as both an investigator of the problem and a facilitator of the solution: identifying bottlenecks and understanding what drives people.

Over ten years ago, he completed a training program with My Motivation Insights, after which he started applying his knowledge of motivational drivers within his own team, in marketing, and in management.

As the director of his own company, Matthijs has led teams, learned what it takes to build them, and worked with businesses trying to bridge cultural differences. Every project provides him with new insights into how organizations function and grow.

Alterego Games has released three games for PC and consoles. Within the company, he has always been the business manager, project manager, and narrative designer. In the early years, he was also a UI designer—because when you start with just two people, you do everything!
