Creating a Better World of Work Now, for the Future
Veldhoen + Company’s mission to Create a Better World of Work hasn’t changed, but the focus, conditions and priorities have shifted as a result of Covid-19. The pandemic has been a catalyst for organisations to become deliberate about why their old ways of working no longer serve them.
Our ambition has always been to co-create new, activity-based ways of working that encourage teams to connect, individuals to flourish and organisations to thrive. Never has an activity-based approach been more valuable. Instead of merely putting out fires and hoping for survival, an activity-based application of three critical lenses: Security, Self-Direction and Universal Compassion helps to pioneer more adaptable organisations. With adaptability, organisations can ensure survival, while building the capability needed to thrive in an increasingly unpredictable world.
