Werk en Waarde (translated
something like "worthwhile work") is dedicated on the
development of special talents, e.g. gifted people and others,
not fitting in average jobs. Frans Corten
founded Werk en Waarde in 2001. He offers job coaching, lectures
and inspiration workshops for individuals, as well as consultancy
for companies. He has written several articles about this subject
(together with others), of which two are translated into English
(and one even into Polish).
Please read about the
work and vision of "Werk en Waarde" :

adults at work (This first article of
Noks Nauta and Frans Corten is now republished in the International
Mensa Research Journal, Vol. 39, No. 2 , summer 2009 about 'Gifted
in the workplace'.)
Gifted
employees: key to innovation? Gifted people seem to be designed for innovation. But it is difficult for society to recognize this...
Both articles are selected for the reading list of the US insititute SENG, www.sengifted.org

to build a gifted career" at the first
