4/28/2023 Free webinar: How can your company perform better: life crafting as an evidence-based tool (EUR)Read NowProf. Schippers discusses how to increase your own, your co-workers' and the company's performance. this Free webinar: was broadcast on Erasmus University Rotterdam July 15 2022. https://webinar.eur.nl/ui/rsm/webinars/vbmqpb/view Prof. Michaéla Schippers will talk about how to master the skill of life crafting: “a process in which people actively reflect on their present and future life, set goals for important areas of life—social, career, and leisure time—and, if required, make concrete plans and undertake actions to change these areas in a way that is more congruent with their values and wishes.” As a professor of behaviour and performance management, she has made it her life goal to let other people shine and prosper. Prof. Schippers developed a tool that can help you and your co-workers craft an ideal life by thinking about what this ideal life could look like, and contrast this with thinking what life would look like if you follow the current chosen path.
"What we are dealing here with is is a very serious problem. It is radicalization and extremism institutionalizing in our academic institutions that are paid by the taxpayer, that are meant for general education and research that are now being hijacked by radicalized groups". In this follow up interview with social scientist at the University of Amsterdam, Laurens Buijs, we talk about what has happened to him after blowing the whistle, late 2022. He's been cancelled, threatened, and defamed now also in Dutch state media. Buijs: " it's completely unacceptable we have to speak out as openly as we can about what is happening. That the university is complicit that the administration is complicit, that staff who is not speaking out is complicit. It is such a grave problem that the only thing that I can do as a whistleblower is bring it into the light". This Follow the Science interview by Rico Brouwer was recorded late March 2023 where Laurens and Rico were paying a visit to Michaéla to see how she was doing.
The filmed event arose from the consternation around Laurens Buijs, a gender studies scholar at the University of Amsterdam who got into a full confrontation with students and staff after critiquing the non-binary gender movement. He decided to use the whistleblower legislation of the university to formally object to the rise of woke and cancel culture at his university. Despite this, he is currently in a situation where he is fighting for his position. The free speech event was meant to show that his case does not stand by itself, but that we are confronting a fundamental challenge in higher education. Over 40 students, teachers, concerned citizens and others involved in higher education visited the event to discuss how the rising totalitarian zeitgeist is threatening freedom of speech and thought in colleges and universities. The event was supposed to take place at the UvA, but the central board decided to prohibit the meeting less than 24 hours in advance. Luckily, a community of free thinkers opened their space for us so that this unique “forbidden event” could take place. on bitchute https://www.bitchute.com/video/DfgSbemN9rvj/

2/16/2023 Scientists are getting butchered by the decisions taken here in this house - Wybren van Haga MP BVNLRead NowWybren van Haga is leader of the liberal conservative Dutch opposition party BVNL [red. ‘the interest of the Netherlands’]. He was the first Dutch MP to refer to Michaéla’s work in the Corona crisis, when he cited her 2020 paper ‘For the Greater Good? The Devastating Ripple Effects of the Covid-19 Crisis’. https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2020.577740/full Rico Brouwer of follow the science interviewed van Haga February 15th 2023 about the new paper; "Is Society caught up in a Death Spiral? Modelling Societal Demise and its Reversal" (with John P. A. Ioannidis and Matthias Luijks), in which prof. Schippers makes the argument that inadequate decision making is what keeps society on a downward trajectory. What role does science play in political decision making? on bitchute: mentioned in this interview:

Modelling Societal Demise and its ReversalRead NowIndividuals, groups and even whole societies sometimes enter a death spiral. A vicious cycle of self-reinforcing dysfunctional behavior that can even lead to societal collapse if the course of suboptimal action and decision making is not corrected. subscribe and watch this interview on Rumble and on Bitchute
Threats, attacks, possible dismissal and cancelling happened when Laurens Buijs, social scientist and professor at the University of Amsterdam spoke out about his field of expertise and made a report of the cancel culture at the UvA. Buijs talks to Rico Brouwer of Follow the Science about how diversity policies have turned into a threat to Academic Freedom to the point where he's now called on Whistle-blower protection. In this 50 minute interview Laurens explains what is woke culture and the concept of non binary and talks about what happened to him after he published an opinion piece about it last week.  links:
Michaéla was te gast in de Waarschijnlijk Waargebeurd show van 15 oktober 2022, om vanuit haar expertise te vertellen over societal decline. Waarschijnlijk Waargebeurd zijn maandeljkse voor publiek opgenomen voorstellingen waarin dialoog, theater en muziek elkaar afwisselen. Onderdeel van het programma is een interview met Rico Brouwer. De bijdrage van Michaéla in interview hebben we hier met toestemming overgenomen bron: https://waarschijnlijkwaargebeurd.nl/afleveringen/show-5-michaela-schippers-academische-vrijheid 9/28/2022 Jordan B. Peterson and Michaéla Schippers - Death Spiral; we're in an epidemic of narcissism and bad decision makingRead NowJust like an army of ants in the animal kingdom, individuals, groups and even whole societies are sometimes caught up in a death spiral. A vicious cycle of self-reinforcing dysfunctional behavior. According to prof. Schippers, a death spiral is characterized by continuous flawed decision making where one bad decision leads to another, which can even lead to the collapse of an individual, group or society. This conversation with Prof. Jordan B. Peterson was recorded backstage at RAI Amsterdam sept 25th 2022, just before his Beyond Order show. Prof. Peterson says that an important problem is wilful blindness, people keep themselves intentionally unaware of facts, i.e. they turn a blind eye. Another problem he points out is an epidemic of narcissism, or self-love. As a solution he thinks people should become more involved in society. In order for people to find out what they can contribute to society, participating in self-authoring https://www.selfauthoring.com/future-authoring and Letters to the future https://www.greatcitizensmovement.org/how-to is a good start. Also, reading and signing the Great Citizens Declaration https://www.greatcitizensmovement.org/signing-the-declaration/ might be a good first step on escaping the ant mill and creating a brighter future for ourselves and the world.
Beyond Order, Jordan B. Peterson https://www.jordanbpeterson.com/beyond-order/ 7/11/2022 In debat met Mattias Desmet: Massavorming en groepsdenken in de Corona crisis; wat kun je zelf doen?Read NowThis entry in English would be titled "groupthink and the role of psychology during the Corona crisis: what can you do yourself?"
