Richtext
"I believe it is essential to continuously view the world from a wide range of perspectives. I do this analytically and with an open mind, grounded in a cheerful and caring attitude. To avoid becoming overly institutionalized, I consciously cultivate my sense of nonconformity."
"Consistency is a virtuous small mind"
Alain Watts
"Trained as a political scientist and having obtained a PhD on the Transformative Government (Public Administration and Transition Science, at the Copernicus Institute) while working at the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, I focus on the role that public organizations play in major societal transitions."
