Creative Coach Pool
And now for something completely different. I recently got selected to take part in Creative Coach Pool (CCP). CCP is a project by Kunstenlab and Amsterdam School of Management (ASOM) and is part of Ongezouten, a local project which aims to connect the creative sector, businesses and education, in order to stimulate innovation.
Basically, what CCP does is connecting a selection of artists with a selection of (small) business owners, one on one. The goal is to enhance the creative climate of these companies (and the business climate of the artists). A creative climate attributes to innovation and change in an inspiring environment. As an artist/creative coach I am to ask questions about the company I’m looking at. The idea being, that my point of view is probably slightly different from the business owner’s point of view, which could make my questions beneficial to the creative climate in this company.
All this is new and exciting stuff to me! Yesterday was my first introductionary session with Hof van Twello, a beautiful and very versatile agricultural business. I’m curious where these coaching sessions will lead me… I can’t disclose any session details here, but I will keep you posted about the general experience.
