About us

at juxtaposition we believe that as people do, companies have a soul and a mission.

Mintzberg considers the theory of ‘organisational imprinting’ to be accurate.  This states that the structure of an organisation, mirrors the time period in which its branch of industry began.  We take this further and believe that time has a quality, and the quality of the inception date of a company will be inherent in any organisation.  By being able to translate this moment of time, we give insight into your company’s mission and purpose.

at juxtaposition we believe in researching time.

We are constantly building up information about global cycles and researching the past, to find how these cycles work in practice. We are also researching country cycles, in particular the Netherlands and the United States, to build up our knowledge of how these cycles affect business.  The larger global cycles have been studied in some depth by us and others so this material is available to be applied to your business.

at juxtaposition we believe companies are living entities and can react with people.

By understanding time, we understand what drives individuals and what their potential is.  We can also put people and companies together to see how they relate. Is an individual in the right place at the right time?  We can also place companies beside companies - should they merge, do business together, compete, be clients? How are these relationships?

at juxtaposition we believe that companies can learn from the past and make the future better.

We provide a framework for looking at patterns.  The systems archetypes operating in a company can work negatively. We can show you how to acknowledge these, and learn to develop the positive sides of these archetypes so that they can be turned to great advantage.

at juxtaposition we believe that you know best.

The experts in any company are the people who are involved. We are experts in asking the right questions of the right people, so that your information can be put in a structure that helps you decide what the next steps should be.
