Résumé
Willem is an educator and facilitator for twenty-five years and has integrated creative thinking and mind mapping in all aspects of his life.
He lives with his family near Sellingen in the Northeast of The Netherlands. In this tranquil place they strive for a simple, partly self sustainable life in harmony with nature amongst the fruit, nut trees and vegetable gardens.
It is here, in nature, where creative thinking thrives well, under gigantic oak trees in the forest, where birds sing and bees visit the numerous herbs, flowers and plants in this area. Willem´s unique concept connects nature with creative thinking.
"By observing trees, flowers, bees, by looking at how insects try to survive we get different perspectives on our lives, our challenges, our work. Nature provides us with the best examples of how things work and don´t work."
While many participants travel to the Northeast of the country to follow the workshops in tranquility, Willem also offers his services on location.
Tailor made training is offered to individuals and groups working for businesses, educational institutions, governments or international NGO´s. Special focus on education (primary, secondary and higher education) and NGO sector.

Résumé
Entrepreneur and Co-Founder of Brain Master Academy, Mélanie Taveira is a high-level coach in Personal Development and Leadership.
After a Master’s Degree in Corporate Finance, Mélanie worked in a French multinational company as a financial analyst. It took her one year to realise that she did not want to leave her destiny, nor her ambitions, in the hands of others as an employee. As her mentor, Michele La Porta, always says: “if you want to dedicate yourself to the world of coaching, become a successful entrepreneur first, otherwise, under what legitimacy do you want to be a coach?” So Mélanie decided to launch a personal project and, after 6 years of hard work, she leads a successful commercial team of almost 80 people.
When Mélanie was ready for the world of coaching, she worked hard with people to help them to take their mind to the next level using our inner resources. But she realised a personal struggle. The 21st century has revealed thousands and thousands of discoveries, and new information to which we have unlimited access, yet it is also the era where an entire generation is paralysed with social networks, where the ability to concentrate has been reduced to the 30 seconds of a TikToK story.
This is the reason why Mélanie has decided to dedicate herself to personal development, precisely through communication, leadership and learning techniques with Speed Reading, Mind Mapping and Memory Power to help people to break schemes with the objective of making a difference.
