Who is Pauline Voortman?

Pauline M. Voortman is a ‘reflective practitioner’.  She works as a trainer and consultant and received her Ph.D. from the Erasmus University. Her research focuses on trust in organisations: what is trust, what is the function of trust in organisations, what are the determining conditions for creating trust? What are the effects of trust and how can we influence these conditions and effects? How can we create a culture of trust? While doing research she noticed that trust involves both the ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ topics of organising, which are typically treated separately, depending on the researcher’s background. She applies a multi-disciplinary approach, linking practice and science. The title of her book is ‘Vertrouwen werkt, over werken aan vertrouwen in organisaties’. Creating or restoring trust in organisations is her passion and her core business.
