From FITTING-IN to THRIVING in the work place.
Transition from feeling "out of place" to purpose, leadership and creation
for yourself and others!
Work is no longer working...!
The way we work is no longer working. We have reached unprecedented levels of wealth, health and education. We are better housed, better connected and dressed than ever before. However, this progress comes at a cost. It is no longer translating into sustainable quality of life. Today, we consume resources at an unsustainable rate. More than 80% of the workforce is disengaged. Rates of stress, depression and burn-out are on the rise. The current generation of school leavers are likely to be the first generation that is worse off than their parents, both in terms of health and wealth. Evidently, something needs to change.
"Innovating.Work" aims for a different work environment. It is a simple change, yet with profound consequences. Our crazy idea: Let's create (work) environments that are designed to support intrinsically motivated individuals. Let's bring together groups of people, that passionately work on the topics they are best at. Let's move beyond today's process and goal driven environments. Instead, make more space for values and vision, something that the people we work with, are consistently asking for. Sometimes it feels like work today is more about fitting-in and fear. Instead, let's create more work environments that operate on values and vision, that are about thriving. Let's treat everybody like adults and build an environment of trust and collaboration. This has profound consequences. It is not hard. It is just very different.
We believe there is enough passion and capability out there to make the necessary changes. However, it is rarely used. Find out, if this journey is for you, by doing our simple quiz.
Does this sound familiar to you:
- You did everything "right" and it does not feel that way.
-
You feel you have more potential but just can't bring it to your work and life.
-
You feel out of place in today's goal and process driven, hierarchical work environment.
- The office politics is just so draining and annoying.
-
You see opportunities that feel important, but you don't know how to get them implemented.
- You crave for an environment with strong values, vision and collaboration.
I have been there! And the important message: IT IS A GOOD THING!
I know this is not obvious. Feeling "out of place" in the work place is draining and a constant struggle. However, it is actually a good thing! Feeling this way is simply a tell tale. It says that you are an amazing person and have simply outgrown your current (work) environment. Innovating.Work was created for people like you. Many of the wonderful people I meet are fed up or even confused. They are looking for values and vision in their work. And they do not find this in today's work environment. They are asking: is a different, meaningful, fulfilling nurturing way of working possible? And what does it look like?
I can tell you "Yes, it is possible. Let me show you!" At Innovating.Work you learn and experience, what a better work environment might look like for you. We offer this transition in small steps. And and all you need is a few hours of your time so we can show you.
This website is dedicated to a finding a better way of living and working. We created it for the amazing people, who feel passion and creativity, who want to change something, but just don't quite know how.
Today, 80% of the workforce is disengaged. We want to change that while addressing the big challenges of today. This includes answering the thorny question of meaningful work, while getting paid for what you love to do. Interested?
"In a way, [participating] felt a little like "coming home." Before I started it, I felt like my life was running me instead of me it. I had this nagging feeling like I had somehow gotten off track and needed to re-trace my steps. I felt ashamed about not being satisfied with my work and personal life since I had all the things that fit in to the conventional definition of success."

The Journey
What I am proposing is fundamentally different from what you see out there today. Not difficult. Just very different. The end result is not "just" awareness and transformation. It will be an actual place you can go to. In this place you can actually do the meaningful work of the future. There is a lot of training and support on finding out what drives you. Some call it purpose, or life goal, or mission and various other names. It describes, what feels important to you. Innovating.Work goes one step further. We aim to build the actual organisation, a place of work like no other, where you can do what is important to you. And it will be specifically created for people like you. What we need from you is a) the commitment to bring your highest potential to work and b) work in a way that allows others to do the same, so can all thrive. Here are the three steps we will take you through:
Step 1: The Game-Changer Journey
This is the beginning of the journey. The Game-Changer Journey is a training designed to help answer three questions:
1) What environment do you thrive in?
2) What puts the light into you your eyes?
3) What is holding you back?
You will learn the basics of what it means to utilizing your full potential.
Step 2: Integration Weekend
After completing the Game-Changer Journey, we will take you away for a highly interactive weekend.
This is your chance to a) put to use what you learned in the Game-Changer Journey and b) work with other like minded people in a values- and vision-based way.
Step 3: The ATELIER
The ATELIER is a very special place. It is a work place designed to allow individuals to bring their full potential, as they work on the topics that make your eyes light up. The ATELIER has two themes: 1) Sustainability and 2) Compassion. You will form teams, depending on your strengths and the topic of your choice. And you get the opportunity to explore and develop solutions to the big challenges of today.

What Others Say:
“Excellence seems to be inextricably and wonderfully intertwined with whoever demonstrates it. Each person’s version of it is uniquely shaped and is an expression of that person’s individuality. Which means that, for each of us, excellence is easy, in that it is a natural, fluid, and intelligent expression of our best extremes. It can be cultivated, but it’s unforced.“
"The Feedback Fallacy", Marcus Buckingham & Ashley Goodall, Harvard Business Review, March-April 2019
Take me to the research
We believe in scientific work. We are still reading, discussing and doing our own research. Here is a summary of what we found so far.
Not sure, if this is for you?
Then hop on a call with me. I call it the "Full Potential Session". We will take 30 minutes of private time. During this time, you will have an opportunity to discover, why I believe you do have more potential than you currently bring to the table. And I do this absolutely FREE.
