April 26, 2022 • TSIBA Business School • Season 1 • Episode 5

A ‘naive optimist’, Dr Janine Haendel speaks about glasses half hull, loving Mondays, loving challenges and doing so through a life committed to humanitarian care and the importance of finding people’s unique strengths to sustainable empowerment.

Dr. Janine Haendel is the Chief Executive Officer of the Roger Federer Foundation.

Janine joined the Roger Federer Foundation in 2010, seven years after its inception. She describes the Foundation as a learning organization, which is still only at the beginning of its journey.

Through her leadership and professional approach, the Foundation has transformed itself from a straightforward donation charity to an ambitious impact oriented and professional and systemic operation close to its heart.

Janine describes herself as a “naïve optimist”, believing that things can be changed for the better, and has devoted her professional life to humanitarian causes across the world.
