Directeur van het Concertgebouw Simon Reinink
Een keer of drie per week zit Simon Reinink in de zaal van Het Concertgebouw. Hij heeft de baan waar menig liefhebber jaloers op is: hij is directeur van het instituut. Jongeren die aan komen kloppen om te vragen hoe ze op een dag op zijn stoel terecht te komen, vertelt hij om hetzelfde te doen wat hij deed: zorg voor managementervaring en klim via die weg op. U hoort er alles over bij FD Persoonlijk On Air, zaterdag tussen 10 en 11u bij BNR Nieuwsradio vanuit Grand Hotel Amrâth Amsterdam. De presentatie is in handen van Paul Laseur.
