As an experienced entrepreneur and CEO, they are hands-down the kind of people I’d want on my team of trusted advisors and consultants – they bring a wealth of powerful tools and the capacity to apply them consistently and gracefully to transform challenges into opportunities.”

“I am quite pleased to personally endorse the Realize team! From the moment I first met Diederick Janse, Jeroen Maes and Thomas Vaassen I was struck with their authenticity and drive toward action taking. This team is smart, personable, innovative and not shy about working hard to meet or exceed expectations.

“During a conversation, I was asked who inspires me. I answered: Gandhi. And immediately after, I said: the three young men of Realize! They inspire me through their authentic work. They're open to self-inquiry, quick and smart, and expert at exploring and applying cutting edge interventions to engage people, teams and organizations, and help them to really be effective. In my view, Diederick, Jeroen and Thomas are living the path to liberation, authenticity and commitment, and that inspires me. It's a privilege to be working with them."

"In these times of complexity, it takes a certain kind of entrepreneurialism and guts to make things move from a good idea into a concrete new initiative. Working with Realize! I have found a unique combination of fresh talent, deep listening skills and implementation capacity that are much needed to make shift happen, whether it has to do with cultural change in an organisation or the start-up of new ventures. I would not hesitate to turn to the Realize! guys when seeking ambition and commitment to get meaningful things done. Their support in the Realize-ation of The Hub, the Art of Hosting Youth, and application of the U-Process to innovation in multi-stakeholder contexts continues to be invaluable."
