About Roos Wouters

Roos Wouters is an inspiring speaker, political scientist, and social entrepreneur with over 14 years of experience in guiding organizations, teams, and individuals towards a human-centered, future-proof way of working. As the founder of the Work Association, she gives a voice to modern workers and translates their needs into practical solutions for policy and practice.

Roos strongly believes in the power of technology — as long as it is used to support people, not to control them. In her lectures, she demonstrates how digitization, flexibility, and autonomy can go hand in hand, and how organizations can create a work environment that stimulates innovation and enhances well-being.
