Background

About Malte Dieckelmann

What happens when you blend technology with a relentless curiosity to learn? You unlock the true potential of your organization. I’ve spent over 20 years leading digital transformations for some of the world’s largest enterprises, and the question I’ve learned to ask is: What truly matters to the people we serve? At Hyland, I’m proud to lead our sales activities across EMEA and APAC, helping businesses harness AI-driven solutions that simplify complexity, accelerate innovation, and transform content into actionable insights. What excites me most about this role is the opportunity to empower organizations to explore and exploit the full potential of their content to create meaningful business outcomes. It’s easy to get caught up in buzzwords like digital transformation, AI, and automation. But I’ve spent over two decades leading major shifts at global businesses - at Microsoft, Oracle, IBM, and Rockwell Automation, and I’ve learned that it’s not about the technology itself. It's about what the technology can unlock. From divestitures and post-acquisition transitions to cloud shifts and AI adoption, I’ve lived transformation from every angle. One thread runs through it all: if you want to stay employable and relevant, whether as an organization or an individual, you must embrace the continuous learning journey. At Hyland, we're helping our clients do just that. I work closely with CIOs, digital leaders, and operational executives across regulated, content-heavy industries - from manufacturing to healthcare - to solve complex challenges around process automation, compliance, and insights. My focus is not just on the sale, but on building trust, delivering clarity, and enabling our partners to lead with confidence in a world of constant change. Beyond business, I’m a father of two teenage sons. When I’m not in a meeting or on a plane, you’ll find me running marathons. It’s a metaphor for my career: you don’t win the race by just starting, you win by keeping your focus, pushing through the tough moments, and staying committed to your goals. Right now, my goal is to complete all six World Marathon Majors. I find energy in the people and cultures I encounter on my travels –not just ticking off cities, but understanding the 'why' behind how things work in each region. That curiosity shapes how I lead and how I serve. I’m here to connect with those navigating digital transformation and asking: how do we make it matter? If that’s a question on your mind, let’s talk.
