With the 2nd Intergenerational Encounter on Dreaming Business, we want to renew the fantastic experience of 2009 with a more specific focus on nature, our values for it and our Willingness to Act towards a more sustainable life. This foreword is also an opportunity to clarify our intentions and in particular:
- an Intergenerational Component
We believe that mixing participants of different age and experience helps to learn in an innovative manner. It pays tribute to the eldest, giving them an opportunity to share their experiences and honour the younger ones, empowering them to contribute with creativity.
- an Encounter
In these events, there are no speakers. Apart from the organizers who present and guide the different steps of the day, everyone is at the same level and we all share the spirit of encountering others, and maybe also different sides of ourselves.
- Dreaming Business
The idea is to use teaching and training techniques that go beyond the mental processes that are standard to rational thinking. This does not mean people become irrational, but that our rationality can be enhanced by also accessing part of ourselves which would otherwise not be directly accessible.
- a Money-free Philosophy
At the start, one motivation was to render such training programs accessible to young students who cannot afford the fees of top level executive programs such as the ones at INSEAD. The way to achieve this is to minimize our costs. As we truly think that the events benefits us as organizers, we are ready to do it for free. Money is thus not absent, but it is not the primary means nor goal here.
-* Promoting Values and Organizations
Like the WeDreamBusiness website, an intention is to promote business organizations where people act together towards human values, social justice and environmental sustainability. We are proud to have the support of prestigious institutions and try to promote them on our website for the support and trust they offer us.
