graduating engineering students.

The Basic Operating System for all Human Actions
We can’t be creative without good support
Creativity shows up in cooperation between people supporting each
other.
Creative Problem Solving
”The world we have made as a result of the level of
thinking we have done thus far, creates problems we
cannot solve at the same level at which we
created them.” - Albert Einstein
Problems created in Knowing can be solved through Being.
Human Resources Development
Consists of two main parts:1. Further developing the domain of Knowing
Adding more, better and/or different knowledge, experience, skills and competence to the already existing ones. This component is what all education and today concentrate on.
2. Using the domain of Being.The creativity component, which consists of explaining how we can generate creative actions from the domain of Being and the Basic Operating System for all Human Actions. It is from the Creative part that all development, progress, success, Flow and Aliveness will emerge.
