On Morosoph

MOROSOPH is the wise fool who surprises you with insights about what has always remained invisible and therefore has an undermining effect within your organization or within yourself. Manfred Kets de Vries describes the MOROSOPH as “a philosophical or learned fool, someone who speaks the truth despite danger, but in a playful and witty fashion, like the Fool in Shakespeare’s King Lear”.

MOROSOPH reveals the invisible in a way that encourages to lose it’s undermining power and to be able to work with what is there. This liberation provides space for significant change and meaningful collaboration within the organisation. When thinking, feeling and doing are connected, heart and mind come together for a deeper experience and harmony. MOROSOPH allows people to flourish in an honest organisation where there is always space to bring to the table what is necessary to strengthen the change capacity of employees and the innovative power of the whole company. That is the way forward!

Let's meet

“Sandra was able to take employees out of the old patterns and address their ownership. What I admire in her is her great confidence to let the group handle the process themselves. ”

Rozella Oostveen – Combiwel

“Sandra thinks practically, listens well and what I find very important, she makes my wishes clear and specific. Her way of working appeals to me because she steers in a helpful way, without being dominant. Sandra has taken a group of people into a change process and made them enthusiastic about it. Difficult seems to be easy.”

Annelies Gerritsen – Municipality of Amsterdam

“I experienced the Art of Participatory Leadership training as very inspiring. Sandra is a very professional, sensitive trainer who gives a lot of space to the group processes. I am looking forward to putting into practice what I have learned!”

Janneke Dubbelboer – Mundi training

“I experience Sandra as a pleasant sparring partner who gave me new insights into the cooperation with residents and colleagues in the process of participation with the citizens of Amsterdam. Sandra knows how to put things well into words and does not shy away from the discussion.”

Sjoukje van ‘t Veer – Municipality of Amsterdam

“Sandra has been able to make a big difference because she puts her personal life experience in service of others. The mutual trust that she manages to realise is her great strength. I consider it a privilege to have worked with her.”

Leen Paape – Nyenrode Business University

“Sandra was the driving force and energetic creative of the cross-financial-sector project ‘Samen in Actie’. Determined, open and willing for dialogue and spirited discussion and always in connection with all participants. Many thanks for that!”

Henk Korthorst – The Dutch Central Bank

“Sandra hosted the first residents’ evenings, which focused on how, according to the residents, participation should take place in their neighborhood. An important step because it determines the route for the entire follow-up process. Sandra performed this difficult task in a professional manner. The evenings brought a rich harvest of suggestions and ideas. I can definitely recommend Sandra.”

Pieter van Zijl – project manager, engineering office, Municipality of Amsterdam

“I worked with Sandra when she supervised a session for women at Price WaterhouseCoopers and another one for an intercultural target group of a regional Police force. As a professional, she is well able to identify the core question of the client connected to the needs and experiences of the target group. During the session I observed that the group was able to let go of their personal obstacles and embrace their own strength, they went home feeling empowered.”

Djehan Lauwers – change manager, diversity & inclusion PwC

“Sandra gives me insights about myself and relationships with others in a very accessible way. She easily senses what is going on inside me, approaches everything with positivity and doesn’t judge.”

Lisa – millennial coachee

“Sandra is a very enthusiastic, creative expert on setting-up and executing change management projects. She can interact very well with multiple levels in the organization. She is very dedicated and reliable to work with and is extremely good in running workshop-like sessions.”

Minke van Steenis – Philips

“Experienced and knowledgeable Sandra has shown us the ways to shape participatory leadership, both with clear explanations and by creating opportunities to practice and experience this ourselves. She sensed what our group needed and left meaningful experiences and lessons with all participants.”

Monika Bankert – business economist, chartered accountant, interim manager, writer with a mission

“The Art of Participatory Leadership has changed my daily life. I now have a better understanding when you assume which role in a group based on what you want to achieve. A great training that gives confusion and deeper insight into yourself. ”

Lot Locher – Strategic Adviser Amsterdam Rainproof / Waternet

Organisational Change: the honest organisation

“To clearly place the ‘what’ with the municipality as the client and the ‘how’ with the executing body, we had to come clean and look at our own share with a very honest view to make the processes transparent. Sandra was eminently able to create that safe context in which everything could come to the table. Complex situations could just be able to exist and did not have to be solved immediately which gives some kind of relaxation in the process. ”

My story

Visioning: from don’t to do

“The idea is that you develop people and organisations from what is already good and thus create the foundation for further development based on trust. Sandra guides you in looking beyond what went wrong and how not to do it. She is particularly interested in how things can be done. In addition, employees usually know very well what is needed to achieve an improvement and Sandra can get that wisdom from a group par excellence. ”

My story

Coaching: focus on perception and harmony

“It was a bit different than I had previously imagined in coaching. I don’t know if I thought I would go home with a marketing plan, but I do know that that wouldn’t make me happy. Sandra took the time to elaborate on my intrinsic motivation, my motives for making music. ”
