Co-founder & Executive Coach

Simbioza Genesis, social enterprise

It all started back in 2010 with an idea by the Ypsilon Institute to connect the young and elder generation through computer workshops. Through the years this initiative grew in size and impact and therefore started its own social-enterprise roots in 2014, expanding also into other areas beside computer education. 
In the fall 2014 we have connected Slovenia in movement through a week of inter-generation sports workouts and we are continuing with this project in 2015. We also run an inter-generation center in Ljubljana, where the young and elderly can enjoy different activities together.

The Work Foundation

The Work Foundation transforms people’s experience of work and the labour market through high quality applied research that influences public policies and organisational practices while empowering individuals.
Through its rigorous research programmes targeting organisations, cities, regions and economies, the Work Foundation is a leading provider of analysis, evaluation, policy advice and know-how in the UK and beyond.
The Work Foundation addresses the fundamental question of what Good Work for all means: this is a complex and evolving concept. Good Work by necessity encapsulates the importance of productivity and skills needs, the consequences of technological innovation, and of good working practices. The impact of local economic development, of potential disrupters to work from wider-economic governmental and societal pressures, as well as the business-needs of different types of organisations can all influence our understanding of what makes work good. Central to the concept of Good Work is how these and other factors impact on the well-being of the individual whether in employment or seeking to enter the workforce.
