Projects
Ordinary people merely think how they shall “spend” their time; a person of talent tries to “use” it.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Motivation
Most of my current projects relate to the idea of creating new global cultural operating systems integrating:
- Perennial and 21st Century Wisdom
- Geographies
- Creeds and Belief Systems
- Past – Present – Future
We appear to live in the age of multiple careers, and we are learning to work globally and asynchronously.
A new motto is “Think non-local, Act global.”
Current Projects:
| INos is aimed at visionaries and innovators and focused on supporting them with frameworks and tools for personal and organizational transformation. Together with a group of other visionaries we decided to combine our best practices to support others with changing the world through business. |  |

| For fun I record mon(k)day, a series dedicated to making Mondays more positive. Imparting inspiring thoughts in a silly costume honors the common roots of art, humor and spirituality. |  |
