Richtext
In 2008, Irene started her journey in sustainability at Nyenrode Business University as a contract researcher. Later, she earned her doctorate at Nyenrode in the field of social innovation, focusing on how people achieve change. Currently, her primary focus is on exploring how digital developments intersect with sustainability ambitions.
Transformations are complex and chaotic processes. The main question that occupies Irene’s mind is how people can be assisted in navigating that complexity. This is necessary to create space for contributing to the transformation. This topic is the common thread in both her roles as a researcher and an educator.
