the images on this website were taken on the Wadden Zee
they symbolize searching and finding a way
sometimes by not moving for a while; just drifting
winds, currents, clouds, the tides, . . .
the elements are in interaction
dealing with difference, with diversity, is like 'sailing' in the space of interaction with the other
how do we navigate in an ever-changing environment?
in our society, at work, on the streets, at home
we can talk about that / this can be learned
I can help with that
The coach The trainer
Marcel van der Poel
After living and working in East Africa for 10 years, followed by 4 years of working visits to more than 20 countries on the African continent, I have now been back in the Netherlands for more than 15 years.
Inspired by my own amazement at other worldviews and customs, I started to delve professionally into cultural differences and diversity & inclusion.
I coach individuals and groups who want to learn how to deal with diversity, with cultural differences and cultural identity, or with living and working in a foreign cultural environment.
I coach diverse teams and multicultural organizations on how to make wise use of diversity and the diversity of viewpoints and experiences.
I provide lectures, workshops and trainings for groups looking for contemporary insights on diversity & inclusion or intercultural competence. Or who just want to 'get started'.
