Jitske Kramer sees companies and organisations as places where people are allowed to grow
Jitske Kramer helps companies and organizations evolve into places where people love to work and can – and want to – give their best. In her keynotes, she provides deep insights into what makes cultures work.
Because the busy anthropologist has lived and worked in different parts of the world, she brings a fundamental understanding of different cultures and their peculiarities that has been lost in some companies and organizations due to work and time constraints.
Jitske Kramer says: “A village community is also a culture, an organization that must continue to develop. This works best when each:r does what suits him:her. Simply spoken: A baker should not sole shoes and a cobbler should not bake rolls. That’s exactly how it should ideally be in organizations and corporate cultures.” Unfortunately, the reality is usually still quite different.
