Amsterdam Inspiration Boost

You will get a tailormade version of Cyriel's story to share the biggest insights of his two most-requested presentations. In the first part, we focus on the Change Mindset. This topic will give you the spark, tools and language to take away some resistance towards change and give yourself & your team a creative & entrepreneurial boost. You will get pragmatic tools to suspend your judgement; explore ways to look at the world from a broader perspective and get into action & learn from your experiments.

In the second part, we focus on 'Making Change Simple'. We switch from attitude and skills and you will get a simple and pragmatic formula to enhance the success rate of a change project (personal behaviour or organisational change projects). We explore the fascinating ‘Brainflix’ metaphor, where we’ll delve into the workings of our unconscious mind in decision-making. And discover how we can use simple principles to steer our unconscious mind in the direction of the desired behaviour. The key to overcoming common obstacles in change projects lies in creating momentum by focusing on 3 principles: Make it Specific, Smooth and Small.

In 90 minutes, you will get a taste Cyriel's signature with pragmatic tools, interactive exercises, inspiring examples, and the necessary humor to elevate your change initiative to the next successful level. Ready. Set. Go.

For more than 20 years, Cyriel Kortleven has been inspiring organisations like IKEA, NASA and Unilever to approach Change with courage, confidence and enthusiasm. His pragmatic advice has earned him the nickname The Simplifier. In an increasingly complex world, we need new simple perspectives to enable us to navigate uncertainty and to turn problems into opportunities.

Be ready for practical tips & tools to help you as a leader drive behavioural change. Your audience will be armed with new language and a boost of energy to transform the fear of change into a positive attitude towards the goals you want to achieve. Cyriel uses interaction and humour to create a context where people think and feel differently to reignite their appetite for creativity, taking risks and achieving ambitious results. More than 300 recommendations on Linkedin are proof of his track record of satisfied clients. Don’t mind the change. Change your Mind.
