WHY THE IDEA FACTORY?

Earth-from-Space-at-Sunrise-HD-Wallpaper

The Idea Factory represents the dawn of a new approach!  Success in the future is a matter of mindset, not technology, not money.

​

More and more socio-economic issues are becoming intractable because the process for reaching solutions is ineffective.

​

To start with, we need a completely new form of dialogue: The live, bottom-up, trust-building conversation. It's called The Bildung Rose - ask us about it!​

Queen Margrethe II (New Year 2018 Public address):
“…We do not take the time to understand one another, and we forget to respect and care about each other.”
“Meeting face to face and talking to one another build trust.”

Pierre Rosanvallon (French philosopher):
“The more we listen to other people, the less confident we become in our opinion about what is best for all of us.”

Jens Chr. Grøndahl (author):
“What separates us is not as important as what we have in common.”
“In the absence of information and insight, demagogues rule freely.”

THE IDEA FACTORY . . .

​

- has no chairman, no board, no minutes of meetings, no budgets.  We cover more than 12 time zones and communicate digitally!

​

- uses the Kaizen philosophyThe principle of never-ending improvement. 

​

- follows two mottos: The task is the boss, not any individual! And . . . we never fail; we either succeed or we learn something new! 

​

- focuses on developing,  evaluating, and creating out-of-the-box solutions whenever we see broken communication, a lack of information/insight, or an atmosphere of mistrust that hinders progress or solutions!

THE MEMBERS ARE . . .

​

. . . unconventional, very busy people who work hard, who play, read, and travel a lot, who meet people of many backgrounds, and who are endlessly curious.

​

. . . 50/50 men/women of all ages and from as many countries/cultures as possible, for example:

- a Mr. Fix-It-All and "efficiencist"

- a comedian/actress/pole acrobat

- an IT and education professional

- a social repair-woman

- an image creator

- an aeronaut

- a wordsmith and communicator

- a Renaissance man

WE NEED NEW VANTAGE POINTS

Decision makers in charge today have demonstrated that they do not have the solutions to the problems they created and presided over in the past two decades.

​

They are so convinced that they know what is best for everyone else, that they have lost sight of - and respect for - other points of view.

​

We need to see things from new perspectives.

ALL STAKEHOLDERS MUST BE HEARD

CHANGE.png

No area reflects the need for change more than how we ENGAGE YOUNG PEOPLE.

 

For generations, the opinion of young people have been ignored - even in areas that directly impact their lives.  And now we leave them with problems we created and the proof that we don't know how to solve them.

​

If we want a better future, young people need to have a say in how things are being shaped. It is, after all, their future we are dealing with.
