Manifesto
- There is a fascinating emerging body of knowledge in the field of adult development.
- Notably, the insights around cognitive development are not fully accessible yet.
- How would our world look if we applied these evolving insights to the fields of businesses, education, politics etc?
- CAD, the Center of Applied of Dialectics, opens up a platform for practitioners in the field of adult development, integrating research into their practice, exchanging findings and thereby nourishing each other, empowering others to do likewise.
