About Ina

Every idea which does not become your ideal slays a force in your soul; Every idea which becomes your ideal creates within you life-forces." Rudolf Steiner

I am a disruptor working side by side with Fortune 500 and new economy leaders to design, communicate and lead systemic business change (Client Cases). 

Through my consulting and interim assignments, speaking engagements, books, and work in human development, I partner with executives who are eager to transform the workplace into a force for good.

Over the past 20 years, I have helped leaders from organisations such as KPMG, ING, IKEA, Achmea and the European Commission, make their people, processes and workplaces more People & Planet positive.

SHFT Happens started off as a method that was helping individuals and teams improve their well-being and emotional intelligence by 20% or more, in just eight weeks (Download White Paper Here). 

Today it's also a Podcast, where I talk with pioneers who stretch the borders of science, and thinkers who are redefining those borders altogether. Also ordinary people who do unordinary things. People whose lived experiences add color to our imagination. 

Bridging various disciplines, from philosophy to neuroscience to organizational psychology, I connect the dots between ideas and ideals to make our world a Happy Home that my daughter and your children will feel proud to inherit.

I am also the author of Burnout to Breakthrough and Love of Fate.
