Through Comenius, I have come to the deep understanding that in complex environments there is an intelligent self-organisation and survival force at work. Everything is connected with everything. That makes one humble. Perhaps it is in this humility, and also in the ability to allow this self-organisation to work, that leadership can be demonstrated.

Listening, questioning and postponing one’s judgement; so true and so simply put. But with age comes experience, and – unnoticed – the tendency to judge fast (based on earlier experience), and that way you will – with time – start missing out on real new insights, and you will find it increasingly harder to motivate young talent. Comenius has provided me with the tools to deal with this dilemma in a clever way.

The Comenius journey to China and the contacts with the people over there have put me off my stride in a pleasant way and made me think. I am now following the developments in China and their relevance to Europe with greater perspective and fascination. At the same time this confrontation poses questions about the machination and the added value of our political system and our government to the social and economic development of the Netherlands.
