Marie Dobenesque is a corporate changemaker, she tries to tackle the obsolete codes of hierarchical leadership in her enterprise with a group of 10 volunteers. Beside, she has started a side project called Corporate Game Changers (CGC) to help others to become corporate changemakers as well !

I made a visit to the Repair Cafe De Meevaart located in the North-East part of Amsterdam. Inside, on the first three Wednesdays of the month and the last Saturday of the month, volunteers of all ages and all nationalities organize repair sessions for objects such as vacuum cleaners and maaany coffee machines. This, in order to avoid people buying them back unnecessarily and save tons of waste. I had a very interesting discussion on many different points with Kim, the leader of the place, the mother as she is called here. Martine Postma who created the very first Repair Cafe in Amsterdam in 2009, regularly visits the team, between 2 trips abroad, because her concept is present now all over the world.

She’s only 22 and she’s already a sustainable young leader in Holland. Annabella Rijksen was running Block-E, with its team in 2018-2019, as an experimentation in the field of Clean Energy. Block-E is a little powerbank, that looks like as a wallet and that can be charged while cycling. From there, energy can be transferred via a Dock: a payment system which allows us make transactions with the green currency generated.

I Amsterdam, I talked with Niek Oldenburg, the co-founder of We Future, a team of dedicated change-makers from all over the world. They are developing a sustainable digital platform that will promote, educate and connect people in order to provide assistance to the conservation and protection of the earth and all living organisms.
