Changing


The Greek philosopher Heraclitus once said: “You never step in the same river twice.” By the time you take that second step, the river has already changed composition – a slightly different undercurrent, grains of sand that have been moved, a different composition of minerals – to name a few. You have also changed: you are not the same as when you took that first step. So we see a river, and we are the same person. But both the river and the person have changed. In short: change is the only constant. 


Change trajectories


Today’s world is facing increasing inequality, political destabilization, rising conservatism, the consequences of climate change, war and genocide, acidification of our oceans, the decline of our biodiversity, and so on. 


Despite all these signals, we as a society continue to cling to old models of linear growth and increasing prosperity. Models that are at the expense of the planet and ourselves. With a growing call for change as a result. 

Now is the time for organizations to connect: connect with the people who make up your organization, with today’s society and with the world that can be.

Approach

When you say Joey, you say change.

My specialty is transforming people, teams and organizations from within. I support you in breaking patterns, which creates space for the emerging future. Which not only changes you and your organization, but also the system you are part of.

Please note, I am talking about actual change here. Innovation, making an organization more efficient and creating more profit are important aspects of management. However, this is not change, but improvement. 

Sources

I bring someting new. For this I draw inspiration from the following sources:
– Organizational coaching
– Systemic Work
– Social sciences
– Stakeholder management
– Theory U

In addition to these formal sources, I also have a unique perspective: I am colorful, queer and young. My being different will help you in the transformation. Because if you really want change, why would you go for more of the same?

Practical info

Every change process is made to measure. Every change process is intervention-oriented; with a beginning and an end. And every change process has a specific goal. My going rate as an agent of change is €250* per hour.
