SETUP #1: WHAT, WHY & WHO?

WHY?

http://www.oxfordmartin.ox.ac.uk/publications/view/1314

The post-normal era

era of disruptionIn culture, orgs, systems and tech

We are the first generation that has to deal with world problems

My why? How? What?WHY? To much people die before the have lived towards their passions. I aim here to reduce the people that have a job that drains their energy and doesnt drive any passions or ambitions they haveHOW? By organizing impact events like hackathons & creating self-organized learning platforms I offer people with dreams a place where they can teach themselves the 21st century skills making them independent and able to create their own jobs.WHAT? Before I become 30 years old I will train 1 million people in how to turn their ideas, curiosity and passion into jobs.

VISION: to prepare and lead a society of changemakers that are able to create new jobs, tackle world problems and find purpose in their life & work.

IN NUMBERS - THE PROBLEMS IM TACKLING87% of todays employees dont do work they are intrinsically motivated about.74% of people under 20 play games of which many are not motivated to go to school1,7 million Dutch citizens are lonely, 3x as much as in 2001. Over 85% of entrepreneurs have intrinsically decided to become one.
