Gert-Jan de Jong
What I am good at
Unleashing collective intelligence and creativity. Collaborators describe me as: inspirational, intentional, involved, reflective, challenging, creative and connecting. Some also call me teacher. I love to teaching. A pitfall is that I can elaborate too much out of enthusiasm. It helps me when others point this out to me.
My experience with teaming
Around 1995 I discovered the work of David Bohm on dialogue and was sold. Since then, dialogue has been at the core of my way of working and living. With the practices and techniques of dialogue I help individuals and teams cultivate a creative attitude to the world. I use dialogue to facilitate stakeholders navigate a complexe social challenge. Together we will find a creative, impactful response.
What inspires me
Photography. For me to photograph is to learn how to live.
