Vision & Mission

At Almende, we believe that the challenges modern organizations face have a lot to do with the way they are organized.

 

As organizations grow bigger, structures tend to become more complex and centralized. Although this makes sense from a management point of view but this may hamper the effectiveness of an individual acting effectively. More efficient would be to facilitate individuals to organize themselves with the occasional help of the management. This is called self-organization.


Almende envisions new forms of organization which better realize the potentials of both people and information/ communication technology.


Our mission is to maximize the synergy among people and between those people and the machines that serve them. We do so by delivering a unique category of competences that enables companies to develop new strategies and applying unique technology based on extensive academic research.
