What comes to mind when you think of the Netherlands? That was the question posed by the organizers of a series of short talks in Guangzhou about Dutch architecture, innovation and communication.
\nThe strict Pecha Kucha format – using 20 slides for only 20 seconds each \u2013 forced me to tell my story in less than 7 minutes. As I focus on communication, the essence of the Dutch identity to me is our \u2018square\u2019 communication style, our polder model with endless meetings and on our positive take on a highly confrontational style. For the Dutch, speaking one\u2019s mind and openly criticizing any idea or proposition \u2013 purposefully not taking hierarchical relations into account – is considered taking responsibility as a team member. This was my answer to the question about the Netherlands: “Cycling on a stormy day, challenging and refreshing at the same time.”<\/p>\n
