Dorian is an Englishman now living in The Netherlands. He has also lived in and worked in the U.K. and Sweden. He started his first business at 17 years old. He loves riding and fixing motorbikes, collects coins, writes poetry, innovates, modifies, and challenges the norms! As a boy, although he learned to swim traditional styles, he invented his own swimming strokes which he still uses!
In the workforce since 1968, he has been working with learning and development for 28 years. The last ten years as senior learning designer with Inter-IKEA Systems B.V. in The Netherlands.
He has now decided to share his considerable experience, with particular focus on all the mysteries and challenges related to ageing workforces. Known to be creative, challenging and straight talking, he speaks English and conversational Swedish and likes to joke in both!
I am interested in photography, art, books, film, travel and humour. I spend a lot of time when awake and when asleep, chasing surreal thought-threads and laughing to myself at the outcomes. Motorcycling and coin collecting are big lifelong passions, and I am still inspired by the art and history connected to my coins. My varied interests, background, and professional experience, provide a solid platform in my intuitive and creative approach to life and work. Add this to a grounded quest for logic and simplicity, and these result in a major advantage in client-projects and collaborations.
The ultimate aim will be to help employers create strategies which will allow this group to develop, at a time when society believes they can't. Any business that succeeds in achieving this will create real competitive advantage.
