Together, the two organizations work on end to end innovation projects.<br \/><br \/>\u201cMany of the challenges we work on begin not with a clear direction, but with an ambition. That is exactly where we add value, by making it tangible and concrete. We bring structure to complexity and clarify where the real choices lie. Clients appreciate the way we guide them through this process,\u201d says Flink.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2aaf6cc e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"2aaf6cc\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8ba58cc elementor-view-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"8ba58cc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon\">\n\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-quote-left\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-05c560c elementor-blockquote--skin-clean elementor-widget elementor-widget-blockquote\" data-id=\"05c560c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"blockquote.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote class=\"elementor-blockquote\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-blockquote__content\">\n\t\t\t\tWe see this recognition as a shared achievement with our clients, who are open to change and have the courage to lead the way.\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-q-footer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<cite class=\"elementor-blockquote__author\">- Vanessa Flink (Managing Director)<\/cite>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a2a76d3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a2a76d3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>It does not stop there. State of Tomorrow also helps translate a vision, whether a future scenario, a strategic direction, a digital flow, or a new brand direction, into something that is both boardroom proof and employee proof.<br \/><br \/>\u201cWe make sure it is not just right on paper, but that it energizes people and gets them moving,\u201d Flink explains. \u201cBy making visions so concrete and imaginable that they do not remain abstract, but are actually approved, supported, and expressed. That combination of thinking and doing, of imagining and realizing, ultimately makes all the difference.\u201d<br \/><br \/>A recent example is the global rebranding of Elsevier. State of Tomorrow helped shape the new brand direction, translate it across the different business units, and roll it out across digital channels. The rebrand has since been largely implemented.<br \/><br \/>State of Tomorrow has also contributed to Portbase\u2019s digital port management platform and to the design of passenger travel at Schiphol Airport, among other projects.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-18122c0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"18122c0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The crucial role of the principal<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a804c20 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a804c20\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Flink also uses the recognition to underscore the importance of clients. After all, success in business services is always achieved together. \u201cThe role of the client in the success of a transformation is often underestimated,\u201d Flink says.<br \/><br \/>\u201cWhile we are accustomed to working on innovative ideas and uncharted territory, this can be challenging for clients. Our collaboration often leads to an intense interplay of strategy, vision, technology, design, and human behavior. It is an environment where decisions must be made without having all the answers, and where conversations are not always comfortable.\u201d<br \/><br \/>\u201cSuccess therefore requires not only expertise, but also trust and courage. We see this recognition as a shared achievement with our clients, who are open to change and have the courage to lead the way.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8499780 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8499780\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Continue to improve<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-611cc91 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"611cc91\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Achieving the highest score in its category is no reason for State of Tomorrow to slow down. \u201cFor us, this is not an end point, but a confirmation that our way of working delivers results, especially in complex projects where direction, imagination, and execution come together.\u201d<br \/><br \/>\u201cIt motivates us to keep moving forward and to continually challenge ourselves to deliver value at the highest level.
