About

Hier aan de kust by Robert Slagter

I’m Russian living in the Netherlands. I work as a researcher at Novay, studying social media, changing workplace, knowledge and learning. In my work I bring together my experiences of facilitating learning and managing change, my interest in technologies and my passion for understanding how people work.

I like travelling: the fun of moving around, the exposure to different cultures, but mostly the learning that comes through juxtaposition and attempts to understand the logic of things observed in a local context. I ask “why?” a lot. Could be annoying for some, but this is my way of learning about the world around me. When not working, I’m at playgrounds – learning from my son how to enjoy life by converting everyday objects into playthings.

This weblog is my learning diary. Sometimes I write about things related to my work, but the views expressed here are personal and do not necessarily reflect the views of my employer.
