ABOUT THE MASTER CLASS
This Master Class focuses on an under-exposed topic in the domain of creativity and innovation. Normally the new ideas and implementation get all the attention but we forget that we also need to create ‘time and space’ to allow these new innovations to get born.
Everybody knows the expression ‘Less is more’ but applying it in your daily life is quite challenging. We live in a society with an abundance of products and services, connections, technologies and information but a downside is that we almost get paralysed by the choices and possibilities (burn-outs, stress and less and less time for the really important things in life).
This Master Class will give you insights in the exaggerated search for efficiency and the paradox of choice. Get inspired by loads of examples from very different industries and learn how you can apply three simple principles to experience ‘less is more’: start to stop, simplify and letting go. We will apply these principles to your own challenges.
- Discover how the principle ‘less is more’ can have a big impact on your innovation power
- Experience the paradox of choice and the disadvantages of a very efficient organization
- In small subgroups, you’ll be doing very practical exercises on your own business case to experience the ‘less is more’ principle.
- Get inspired by a lot of (business) examples how you can apply less is more in your own organization
- Go home with very practical tips and tricks to do more with less effort.

27 November (4.45pm – 6.45pm) including afternoon refreshments
ABOUT THE MASTER CLASS
Hailed as the “world’s laboratory”, Israel has an enviable reputation as the ‘Start-Up Nation’, providing evidence of economic success through authentic entrepreneurship, cutting edge inventiveness and ‘out of the box’ thinking. The ability to understand and identify the generative challenge, plus the ability to ‘zoom in and zoom out’ through audacious leap goals and generative inquiry and debate delivers astonishingly creative and innovative results!
In this Master Class Janet will share the secret ingredients behind this tiny nation’s global success and leadership in disruptive high tech innovation through its “provocative competence”. She will describe how it can be emulated, enacted and embodied within an innovative business eco-system, corporate culture development and learning context.
You will learn:
- A pragmatic and non-theoretical way of being innovative.
- How Israel built an innovative eco-system and why they are the key to a sustainable and flourishing global future.
- How Israelis innovate through colliding “necessity” and “possibility” and what enables its success.
- How to develop the intrinsic motivators, mindsets and behaviors of effective innovation management and innovative leadership.
