She’s been a book lover and traveller all of her life, which hasn’t always made packing easy, but has exposed her to endless worlds and ways of being in them. After working in a German bakery in North Carolina, then teaching intercultural awareness at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, and working in the International Office at the Radboud University in Nijmegen, she started her own business in 2017: StoryCraft. Focusing on story structure as the foundation for all storytelling skills, Christine helps people in transition learn to use stories to find their voice so they can communicate and connect with confidence. She helps clients find, craft, and tell their stories. She also stays involved with intercultural work, although these days it’s more often in the form of diversity and inclusion projects. She’s moving to Edmonton, Canada in 2021 and taking StoryCraft and a sizable home library with her.

    S2E1 Mac Maistrelli

    In this Episode of Learner Journeys, Bastian speaks with Mac Maistrelli. Mac has been working on leadership and organisational development for all of his life in various capacities (from youth leader in a local NGO to director in the board of a large company). A scientist by training and an educator by choice, he's currently working with a team of amazing engineers that he feels very fortunate to serve as their manager. Mac and Bastian speak about how we can look at management and leadership through the prism of facilitation; how openness and vulnerability lead to trust and how trust enables productive conflict that brings everyone ahead. One of the ideas or frameworks Mac referenced in the conversation was the "5 dysfunctions of a team" model.  He suggested this video for a light-hearted and yet profound introduction to it: https://youtu.be/O5EQW026alY (36 mins, by the creator of the model, Patrick Lencioni). If you want to get in touch with him, you can reach out to him on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/macmaistrelli/) Credits: Learner Journeys is created and hosted by Bastian Küntzel Cover Illustration by Michal Wronski  Cover Design by Anna Pomichowska  Music Credits: Epic Cinematic by Scott Holmes Ghost Byzantine by Blue Dot Sessions (www.sessions.blue) Guinea by Blue Dot Sessions (www.sessions.blue) The Dustbin by Blue Dot Sessions (www.sessions.blue) Throughput by Blue Dot Sessions (www.sessions.blue) UpUpUp and Over by Blue Dot Sessions (www.sessions.blue)
