We are a hodgepodge of rookie-minded people. The cause we are all fighting for is to Humanize Work. How? By challenging the conditions you want to work in. From four integrated perspectives. To which each of our areas of expertise gives substance to in their own, unique way.
Humanizing Work starts at the heart, by discovering the principles and values that speaks your truth. We invite you to identify your unique human-centric DNA. Embedding an all-aboard culture, with a shared passion and everybody in. As the solid foundation for realizing human potential and maximizing impact.
Next thing to do is to embed these human-centric principles into your organizational design. We help you redesigning towards people-centered structures, methods and practices. Creating an environment in which everybody has the space to express their voice and can work to their natural best.
After grasping the basic principles, and shifting into new formal structures, there is the need to align the mindset accordingly. We are training and developing people to make the new rules of the game your own. Learning to deal with the new dynamics, with changing roles, responsibilities and required skills. Always cultivating continual self-renewal to stay ahead of the game and grow along the way.
Finally, you need to put your learnings into practice. We are guiding and coaching teams in the desired conscious behaviour. Emphasis on the new connected way of working, as the final step in achieving an integrated solution.
Maike Groen
I guide changes in organizations. I do this by moving together to achieve something new. That begins with a lot of talking, watching and and most importantly listening.
My favorite topic is therefore: Reflect on-the-go
Sandra Borsato
I believe in creating inclusive environments that foster strong relationships and encourage individuals to share their creativity, experiences and unique abilities.
Charlotte Maas
Organizations are about people. I truly believe that attention, interaction, collaboration and the ‘why’ of what you are doing within your organization is a musthave, not a nice-to-have, if you want to be sustainably successful. If people are inspired and feel connected, results will come naturally.
Floor Decossaux
What drives me? Honesty, trust and attention. When someone comes to me with a (legal) question, I am particularly interested in the values of the person in front of me.
Judith Janssen
The best compliment? If a client says to me: now I’ve found a legal professional who really understands my business. Then I know for sure that I have been curious enough. That emerges the true Rookie Mind in me!
Michel Mulder
At the Rookie Minds I find everything what makes me happy: energy, positivity and new perspectives. That experience from looking at things differently I want to give other people too. My goal is therefore to spread that specific rookie-experience as much as possible.
Annemarijn Hoorens
Everyone has to deal with a world that is constantly moving and changing. Relating to these dynamics is a creative journey.
My favorite topic is therefore: Design Thinking
Edwin van der Geest
Unleashing as much potential energy as possible in organizations, that is my ultimate goal. Remove all obstructive factors, so that people truly flourish and change from within will follow naturally.
Koen Jansen
I like to challenge organizations to look at their processes from a different perspective. Challenging them to seek improvement. It’s the dynamics of change that makes it worth while.
Brechje Kuiper
I have learned to embrace new possibilities and to face life open-minded and without inhibitions. To really be young of spirit. Change means a fresh start and it will open doors. That’s the message that I, as a change manager, want to convey to others.
Laura Soudijn
My heart lies with structurally helping people and organizations. I do that while paying as much attention to business purposes, as to the people who are going to make it all happen. Fully convinced that standard solutions do not exist and that genuine results will only be achieved when talent gets to rein freely. And when people feel connected, both to the goal and to each other.
Conrad Faber
That’s what I love about The Rookie Minds: everything is possible. And we are always open to new initiatives and embrace everyone’s unique ideas and talents.
My favorite topic is therefore: StrenghtsFinder
René van Beek
It’s a lot of fun to shatter the stuffy hierarchy, to make people the heart and soul of everything you do and live your Rookie Mind.
My favorite topics are therefore: collective ownership and self-organization
Danielle Gijzen-Janssen
I am a legal counsel through and through. Analyzing and providing legal advice and solutions is what I thoroughly enjoy. To transform a negative situation into a positive one is my pragmatic and distinctive approach.
René van der Steeg
At The Rookie Minds I have found the best of both worlds: I determine my own path, but I can always fall back on the knowledge and experience of my colleagues. Their entrepreneurial spirit and the stimulating environment keep me inspired.
Merlijn Mazairac
A Rookie Mind is curious by nature, energetic and always full of ideas. And certainly a bit idealistic. C’est moi! Sit down with me and you will get insights you didn’t get before. Why? Because I always want to know what’s really going on.
Vincent Spaan
I love to keep developing myself, both at work and in my private life. As everyone at The Rookie Minds.
Lisette Böhne
At The Rookie Minds nobody tells me what to do, I am in charge of my own journey. I love working in dynamic environments that change constantly.
