ABOUT NEŽA.
A Slovenian facilitator, course creator, and transformative learning expert, living in The Netherlands with her fun partner Geert, their 3 boys and a lot of Lego.
MY MISSION ...
... is to contribute to education innovation and support the fun, daring educational professionals who believe education has the power to shape a better future.
I work with universities, researchers and education organisations based in Europe.
IF YOU REALLY KNEW ME...
... you'd know I'm a language teacher turned entrepreneur and someone with 2 homelands. I'm advocate for playfulness leadership. A woman with a love for learning and growth.
A twin mom, an outdoor person, and someone who wrote her thesis about linguistical taboo (that's the fancy way of putting it) or commonly known as swearing (less fancy explanation). The title of the thesis was "Más allá de la mierda" ("beyond shit"). I explored how the phenomenon of swearing came to be, how it is now in Spanish language and how to study it by analysing Pedro Almodovar's movies. Have I mentioned I had lots of fun doing my research?
"Collaborating with Neža is learning to mix the best both of both worlds: having fun and acquiring a deep understanding of social dynamics. Thanks to Neža's teachings, I created profound experiences with groups and revolutionized the way I lead."

DEEP - FUN - DONE
... is my work philosophy.
DEEP: daring to dive in deep conversations in a safe environment brings lasting connection.
The FUN element helps us learn better. Also, transformation shouldn't be boring or full of drama.
Without getting any practical results we risk getting stuck in endless talking. So let's also get things DONE - while having lots of meaningful fun!
