• Boost your Change Mindset: 'Yes And ...'

    Let's start with the adventures of the 'Fellowship of the Change Mindset': Frodo, Gandalf, Gimli, the Elf, The Nazgul and the mysterious Cleaning Guy.

  • Yes And ...

    Suspending your judgement is the first ingredient to allow change. Idea-killers (expressions like ‘yes but…’, ‘we don’t have money’, ‘we already tried it’, …) are the main reasons why change is so hard to accomplish. That doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t say ‘no’ anymore, but if the goal is to generate new ideas and allow change a chance, we have to postpone our judgement at some moments. Combine this with a GiGa dream and we have the starting blocks for a successful change process. A good question to explore when you look for your GiGa dream is ‘What am I willing to struggle for?’
