Navigating Tricky Times – Leading Through the Messy Middle of Change

19 November 2025 | Walk-in 14:30
Batavia, Robert Boyleweg 7, Leiden

The ISPE NL Affiliate is thrilled to invite you to our annual Member Event – the one day each year when we bring together all ISPE members from every Community of Practice.

Why this event matters

Change is constant in our industry. We are often caught in the “messy middle”; those tricky times when the old no longer works and the new is not yet clear. Understanding how to navigate these moments is key to creating resilient organizations and thriving in transformation.

That’s why we’re excited to welcome Jitske Kramer, corporate anthropologist, bestselling author, and international speaker. Jitske will take us on a journey through the dynamics of culture, power, and connection during change, helping us lead with clarity and courage in uncertain times.

What to expect

• A powerful keynote by Jitske Kramer on navigating tricky times in transformation
• The rare opportunity to join an exclusive plant tour of Batavia Biosciences
• An evening of networking and a walking dinner, meeting ISPE members from all Communities of Practices
• The chance to bring a non-ISPE colleague or friend and share the value of the ISPE community
