Lieutenant General (ret.) Alexander Schnitger was in charge of the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) from March 2012 to June 2016. In 2012 the cutbacks in defence expenditure had come to a head. Therefore, his top priority was to steer the men and women of the RNLAF through this austerity campaign while maintaining relevance, readiness and affordability of the strike power of the Air Force. His personal creed is: ‘People Matter.’ That is why the key aspects in the evolution of the Air Force in the coming years will be creating trust and pioneer spirit, scope and cohesion, authenticity and diversity in leadership.
