HOW TO DESIGN YOUR WORK LIFE

About HOW TO DESIGN YOUR WORK LIFE

HTDYWL is a collaboration between organisational psychologist Ardine Verhoog and brand strategist Ines Hardon. Ardine and Ines share a deep interest in personal development in relation to (the future of) work. They believe professionals are the happiest (and most successfull) when they are LEADING THEIR OWN (continuously changing) professional careers (WORK LIFES). To support this, Ardine and Ines have developed HTDYWL; a unique approach that combines insights from the Positive Psychology & Personal Branding with Design Thinking Principles.

For the first two they make use of their master degrees in psychology and business administration, their profound (20+ yrs) working experience in national & international companies, all kind of additional training like MBTI and of course their own (work) life experiences. For the last one, Ardine & Ines recently obtained (actually thanks to Covid), their Designing Your Work Life qualification from Stanford University (as one of the first in the Netherlands).

Clients do work with them, and the HTDYWL approach, in their 1 on 1 career coaching practices and since the world is ‘opening up’ again, it feels like the right moment to introduce their (IN)COMPANY offerings: - EXPEDITION WORK LIFE: a tailor made HTDYWL professional development programme for everyone who want to start or ‘step up’ in leading their professional life (think about promising starters, talented mid-careers or first time managers). They take their participants literally on (mini)expeditions to practice design principles like “radical collaboration” and “prototyping” in real time (unexpected) situations. This makes the programme even more effective (and more fun to do as well!). - COURAGEOUS (POST-COVID) WORK LIFE CONVERSATIONS: short modules from the HTDYWL programme to support (the future of) Work Life conversations all companies are having at the moment (or will have soon). These can be done stand-alone (in 2,3 or 4 hour sessions) or as part of an team event.
