De échte slachtoffers van de rellen in Brussel: kinderen die met een trauma achterblijven en hun alleenstaande moeder zien worstelen om het hoofd boven water te houden.
De afgelopen dagen heb ik veel geleerd over de relschoppers en beleid. Jammer dat ik dit überhaupt moest leren.

‘Laten we kenniswerk in ere herstellen. Door medewerkers niet te gijzelen in chats en in vergaderingen die ook een e-mail hadden kunnen zijn. Kenniswerkers kunnen geen waarde creëren als ze de hele dag bereikbaar moeten zijn. Ze hebben recht op focustijd.’
