The future is symbiotic
Humility + Care < 1.5°C It’s a simple, symbiotic equation that the "most intelligent" life form on Earth should not have too hard to grasp. After all, pushing beyond the 1.5°C threshold, which places life conditions beyond planetary boundaries, is not something any intelligent species would do. And yet we stick to another equation, the … Sigue leyendo The future is symbiotic
Borissey
On board this small ferry to Ærø (Aero island), it seems a perfect place to read the last chapter of Homer’s Odyssey.“There’s nothing more evil for mortals than to be a wanderer.”, Odyssey, “that man of great cunning” says on his way home to Ithaka.“Here at home am I, truly myself,” states Homer’s hero 20 … Sigue leyendo Borissey
Just like breathing
These are just (some) soft skills. Yes, just like breathing. The conversation is inspired by the scepticism I sometimes encounter when talking about the benefits of working with Inner Development Guide (IDG). Since this scepticism often comes from the standpoint that only hard skills yield results, with soft skills excluded from the solutions, I tend … Sigue leyendo Just like breathing

I am xenia

The term is central to Homer’s Odyssey and comes from the Greek xénos, which means both “guest” and “stranger”. Where and when has it gone wrong? Where and when have our cultures caused these two … Sigue leyendo I am xenia
All to one
🚀 "Millionaires make money. Billionaires make history."Back in 2020, I wrote a piece reflecting on this quote, tracing the evolution of extreme wealth from John D. Rockefeller (the first dollar billionaire in 1916) to the pandemic-era tech boom that supercharged the fortunes of the ultra-wealthy. Fast forward to today, and we’ve officially entered a new … Sigue leyendo All to one
The purpose of education should be learning, not knowing
A professor of education once asked Henry Mintzberg what he thought about the current American practice of appointing retired army officers to head up schools. Good idea, he replied, so long as the country is prepared to have retired school principals run the army. The anecdote speaks on many levels, but perhaps most importantly, … Sigue leyendo The purpose of education should be learning, not knowing
2026: Togetherness & Active listening
For my New Year's resolution, I choose to bring forward and prioritize two qualities I wrote about some months ago. The first one is togetherness. While letting the political opportunism further polarize and divide people, we tend to forget how quickly hateful words escalate into violent actions. Therefore, picking up from Jiddu Krishnamurti’s question: what … Sigue leyendo 2026: Togetherness & Active listening
Should we have a Climate Nobel Prize replacing the Nobel Peace Prize?
Ecosia has just deposited €1,000,000 with a notary in Berlin, reserved solely to help create a new Climate Nobel Prize. Almost at the same time, this year's Nobel Peace Prize winner, Maria Corina Machado, made a point to praise US President Donald Trump for pushing forward the US agenda for a possible violent takeover to … Sigue leyendo Should we have a Climate Nobel Prize replacing the Nobel Peace Prize?
