How to Change and Improve Organisations with Nilguin van Raad

This episode with Nilguin van Raad is one of my favourites.

Be sure to check it out and let me know what you think 🎙


A few quotes that stuck with me:

  • With pure intentions and zero judgement you can say anything
  • If things need to be said or done, you need to say or do them
  • Building a relationship can take time, but it can also be done in an instant
  • People act like the people around them

  • Rose of Leary
  • Getting out of the Box - The Arbinger Institute
  • Cross the line
  • The Trust Equation
