Background

About Jerphaas Donner

As Strategic advisor I strengthen the connections between different aspects of sustainability within the community administration and the community. I advise board and colleagues on sustainability issues and policies. My passion, experience and knowledge is the world of networks, network organization and network communication. Networks are fascinating structures of people and organizations connected through values, ​​shared by their participants. Troughout my career I've been working on organizational structures that reinforce networks and especially the role of communication in these structures. By sharing valuable information, organizations can connect with customers, citizens, members or donors. In this respect, listening is more important than sending, trust is essential, and ultimately the network survives thanks to meaningful relationships between the partners. Networks are faster in processing information, knowledge and dissemination of innovations than any other organizational form. Over the last 25 years, I have been able to work on the development of networks in the area of ​​sustainability and democracy at all levels, from local to international. Through publications, advice, management for example for the and Nature and Environment, I would like to make my knowledge and experience available.
