As a brave changemaker, you have a strong drive to make a difference. You’re WAY beyond considering any kind of comfort zone. In fact, you feel most comfortable in trying out new ideas and concepts. You enjoy setting up projects and sharing all about it. This also means that you keep sharpening your own ideas. You’re usually the one who comes up with original solutions that suit you and those for whom you want to make a difference. You’re used to this, but sometimes you get this nagging feeling: is this idea strong, original, good enough?

The challenge is sometimes optimizing a creative concept, OR shipping it. What are you better at, idea development or shipping? Since 2010 I have been making online training courses and in real life workshops on creative online communication, idea development and delivering results. With love and pleasure I help communication professionals, entrepreneurs and organizations with a great mission use their creativity to achieve great results. My OnlineComm Academy won a silver award, in the category Most Inspiring Learning Journey. More important than that…the courses teach you how to touch people’s hearts while making a difference in your own unique way.

PROGRAM: THE BRAVE CHANGEMAKER

RELATED:

Workshops for professionals who want to lead from within, and make this congruent in their missions.

RESILIENCE RESET

Resilience is one of the most crucial skills you’ll ever learn in life and work. Find unconventional solutions when life happens while you were busy making other plans.

The first thing that usually goes down the drain in stressful times, is creativity. In stressful times, our brain focuses on survival, and operates in fight, flight, freeze or fawn mode. Which is no bueno, because creativity is key to finding useful solutions. The Resilience Reset workshop evolved from my own experience being an orphan. It took HEAPS of creative resilience to build a better life for myself. You can learn this skill. Use it to up your game in your creative projects. Master this skill, be free, and make a difference.

RADICAL EMPATHY

Being a changemaker with a meaningful mission also means being able to empathize with the people you’re trying to mobilize. In this radical empathy workshop, you and your team members experience the meaning and benefits of this first hand.

When we’re called to make a change, we try to think about the exact benefits for or target groups. But sometimes it isn’t that easy to empathize, and we need to listen and experience what our target group actually is experiencing. In this workshop, you get the opportunity to experience just that, and to enhance your project with the knowledge and insights this has provided you with. It’s personal, it’s engaging, and your team will have a deeper connection and a bigger, more focused purposeful impact while pursuing your mission.

This workshop is currently available in the Netherlands.

HEART CORE STORY

THE HEART CORE STORY SESSION HELPS YOU DEVELOP YOUR OWN SIGNATURE IN YOUR ONLINE VISUAL COMMUNICATION.

Is your online brand not as sharp as you’d like it to be? Or do you have pretty good visual material, but it doesn’t really synch with the rest of your brand? Jo to the rescue. I help you get your visual identity show on the road. From now on, you’ll publish visuals that resonate with you and your brand.

Not only that: I’ll also teach you how to work with Canva, the online graphic design platform that helps you create appealing and effective visuals for your online communication.

TRAIN YOUR CREATIVE MUSCLE

YOU’LL BE THE ONE BRINGING THE MOST CREATIVE IDEAS FOR YOUR BUSINESS TO THE TABLE. LEARN CREATIVE METHODS THAT ALWAYS WORK. EVEN ON UNINSPIRED MONDAYS.

Develop the skill to come up with creative solutions at lightning speed. Experiment with various creative methods that will surprise you time and time again. Ideal for communicators, authors, creatives, entrepreneurs who want to stand out form the crowd. You’ll take your creativity to the next level.

This is the most popular training from OnlineComm Academy…since 2009. Never gets old!

RESONATE! PERFORMANCE

There’s nothing like sharing your story on stage, to touch people’s hearts and to changes lives.

When I performed at TEDx, I prepared and rehearsed A LOT. It took heaps of dedication and time. And it was GREAT: it’s been one of the best memories I have in my life. I with the same for you, and I’ll gladly help you along on your path to the stage. Because nothing is stronger than an idea that’s ready for the world. In this training I help you craft your idea worth spreading, create your story line and build a decent slide deck. I help you rehearse your talk and improve your stage presence.
There are two options: a day training, or extra customization on the way to your presentation. You will get a complimentary copy of my book ‘Live Your Talks’.

CUSTOM MENTORING

All the online programs and courses in the world may be valuable in their own right. I believe in online learning! But there’s nothing like someone who taps into the challenge you’re facingm, and helps you grow more resilient in the process, while helping you achieve results.

I’ve always had mentors, and still do. And always will! We’re all a work in progress. If you want to grow more resilient, creative and integrate your natural source of empathy in your social change goals, please reach out. (Sometimes there’s a (overseeable) waitlist. These are crazy times, aren’t they? In case I can’t help you right away, I’ll let you know right upfront, and will think of a solution with you.)
