News: Frans Corten was invited to give an interactive presentation "How to build a gifted career" at the first European Mensa congress in Köln (Cologne), July 30th - Aug, 3rd. Read the article about it in the Kölner Stadt Anzeiger (in German).

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" :
