Description:
Jitske Kramer wrote Work has left the building during the second lockdown in October 2020. About how corona plunged us into a collective culture shock and what the impact of this is on our working lives. Work rhythms have been completely disrupted for months, we are confronted with uncertainty, crisis decisions and the need to adapt and change. Working from home has taken off, which requires more than playing makeshift online office. How do you adapt your organizational culture to this? How do you manage remotely? What can you do now to come out better in the long term? How do you maintain pride in the organization and the connection with your team, even if you can only see each other digitally for weeks and sometimes months? Is this a crisis or a transformation? And what new rituals are needed now? With knowledge from anthropology, experiences in organizations and inspiration from the many travels that Jitske has made, she offers support for these strange times. An inspiring book full of valuable perspectives and concrete answers to today's questions. Jitske Kramer is a corporate anthropologist and travels the world to learn from traditional healers, leaders, surprising innovators and random passers-by. In these times of corona, she travels mainly virtually and scours the internet daily in search of stories and patterns. She is a keynote speaker and author of Deep Democracy, Jam Cultures, Voodoo and co-author of The Corporate Tribe and Building Tribes. A bull's eye. Because of Jitske's sharp observations and her practical advice. But also because she involved her readers in the writing process and also lets them speak extensively. - Ben Tiggelaar, writer and behavioral scientist Jitske asks the right questions. She provides practical tools to look ahead with a positive outlook in these difficult times. - Typhoon/Glenn de Randamie, rapper/singer, speaker and entrepreneur I read this new book by Jitske with great admiration. A beautiful combination of anthropological interpretation and practical tools. Personal, appreciative and hopeful. – Arend Ardon, The Change Studio I always thought: big changes mean uncertainty and stress. This book taught me that big changes also mean opportunities, a new perspective, courage and even poetry. – Dolf Jansen, comedian, columnist, songwriter, presenter and marathon runner Jitske Kramer is someone you simply have to read everything about. – Joris Luyendijk, journalist and writer of Het zijn net mensen and Dit kan niet waar zijn
