About Me:: I am founder of the Dutch foundation Professional Pride (Stichting Beroepseer). I try to change the ways we think about professionals, and the way they think about themselves. My philosophy: more freedom, more intrrinsic motivation, more responsibility.

How did you come across this network?: I met Michel en work with James Burke
