Jitske Kramer has confirmed that she will talk about „Tricky Times, the messy middle of change“ at the Ülemiste City Future Forum. 

Jitske Kramer is a corporate anthropologist who travels all over the world to learn from traditional healers, leaders, surprising innovators and random passers-by. She is known for being the bestselling author of Deep Democracy, Jam Cultures, Work has left the Building and The Corporate Tribe. She brings worldly knowledge and experiences back to the world of organizing, cooperation and leadership through challenging keynotes and masterclasses. To improve the strength and results of individuals and groups (and to make the world a more beautiful place). She has the ambition to activate organizations to be wildly attractive to everyone and everything. Preferably in a pleasantly simple way. In her stories, what is familiar gradually becomes strange. And what is strange becomes familiar. 

In her deeply insightful presentation, Kramer draws on her latest book, the Dutch bestseller “Tricky Times,” to unravel the subtle patterns that emerge during times of change. She describes the opportunities, the dangers and temptations during times of change and uncertainty – when wild stories confound, tricksters toy with truth and power dynamics shift.  

In Tricky Times, Jitske Kramer unravels the complexities of cultural change. Focusing particularly on what happens in the uncomfortable, turbulent, precarious and messy middle—when we know we cannot go back to how things were, but also can’t yet clearly picture what’s to come.
