Cultural change

The book “Leiders in Cultuurverandering” [Cultural Change and leadership] is based on 16 in-depth case studies in international and Dutch companies. They include Randstad, Arcadis, Air France KLM, 3M Health care, Amazon and Ahold. The case descriptions are available in Dutch language. The most important stories are included as practical examples in the English publication Cultural Change and Leadership in Organizations.

Leadership

In 2012 a boxed collection was completed with 15 CD’s for people who seek inspiration while traveling or who want to listen during quiet moments at home or on holidays. This project is a collaboration of 14 colleagues from the Netherlands. Unfortunately tho collection is available in the Dutch language only.

Together with colleagues from Spain we aim to launch a similar project on leadership and change in the Spanish language. This is scheduled for 2014.

Leadership and authenticity

Leiderschapsontwikkeling en persoonlijk leiderschap

Leaders are people who want to make a difference and are willing to stick their neck out and assume a leading role in strategic and cultural change.

Leadership excellence programs support leaders and initiators in qualifying their organizations for the future and developing the people within. I experience great pleasure in contributing to this activities.

Dynamics in Organizations

Dynamics of Organizational Change and Learning is an academic handbook for people who are willing to take a deep dive into the dynamics of organizational change and development. Well known scholars contributed to this handbook, like  Karl Weick, Robert Quinn, Chris Argyris, Thomas Cummings, Alfons Sauquet, Alice Lam, Gary Yukl, Chris Clegg and many others. This book was awarded a prize by a Dutch association for professionals in organizational science and change management.
