About Joyce de Ruiter
What if you had to choose between becoming deaf of becoming blind? What would you choose?
At the age of 16 Joyce was told that around the age of 40 she will be almost deaf and blind and she would be of no value to this society.
At that moment she was faced with a choice: to accept her role as an eternal victim or to look at what would still be possible and get the most out of that. We all have to deal with changes and setbacks in our lives and work, which appeals hugely to our personal agility and on our mindset… What attitude do you take when confronted with change? We all have to be agile, but how do you become agile?
During her keynote ‘Victim or victor? How to deal with change’ Joyce shares her story about how she copes with her continuously changing perspective in life. She provides insights how to develop an agile mindset that can help you to remain master of the changes in your life. You will experience that any change can be the catalyst or breeding ground for future opportunities and successes.
