PARTICIPANTS AFTERWARDS

This approach makes it playful, surprising, and brings very creative new ideas. As adults, we tend to do things the same way over and over again, and this offers completely different perspectives. It’s wonderful to look at serious problems with such a fresh outlook. Highly recommended!

Dennis de Mik

Launch Excellence Lead Pfizer

Good exercise to simplify problems to the core and it also provided valuable insights into the challenges to bring affordable and qualitative healthcare to more people without access to medical services.

If we continued to ‘think like a child’ as adults, the world would only know solutions.

Margot Cooijmans

Director Philips Foundation Impact Investments

A fun, refreshing, and creative approach that makes you look at and think about the challenges we deal with daily in a completely different way. It literally shifts your perspective. It’s amazing to start with a blank slate and approach the topics we usually write reports about and debate over. And now, to tackle them openly and freely using Bas’s method.
