ABOUT POLDERON

Polderon was created to empower business teams to take risks and learn quickly from mistakes, and become more productive with more engaged and happy employees.

What does “Polderon” mean? It’s a combination of the Dutch word “polder” (which refers to tracks of land enclosed by dikes) and the English word “onwards”. When Jason first arrived in the Netherlands, he worked in a hostel called the Flying Pig in Amsterdam. For the first time in his life he experienced how a team can work together with trust and respect for one another and with a minimal amount of hierarchy to make work fun while getting things done. This stayed with him and he has since devoted his career to helping other organisations develop this culture. Many years later, he learned that the Dutch explain this way of working as the “Polder Model”.
