Danielle Zandee is Associate Professor of Organizational Development and
Change, as well as Director of the Advanced Management Program at
Nyenrode. She coordinates the EMDC research program on Innovation of
Managing and Organizing (IMO) and conducts action research into
processes of organizational renewal. She designs and leads programs in
which organizational change and management development are combined in
an approach based on appreciative and action learning theory and
principles.
Danielle has a BBA and MBA degree from Nyenrode Business Universiteit.
In 1984 she started her career with the Royal/Dutch Shell Group where
she worked as a HR-professional in both the Netherlands and South
Africa. Fascinated by organizational and managerial dynamics, Danielle
became a Program Manager in the Nyenrode EMDC where she designed and
facilitated programs for companies like IBM, KPN and Rabo.
In 1995 Danielle went to Cleveland, USA, where she received her Ph.D. in
Organizational Behavior from Case Western Reserve University. Here she
collaborated with David Cooperrider and others in a number of
Appreciative Inquiry initiatives and she taught in the Masters in
Positive OD and Change Program (MPOD).
In 2007 Danielle returned to the Netherlands and to Nyenrode, where she
now teaches affirmative approaches to organizing and change in a number
of Executive Education programs. Danielle writes about the philosophy
and practice of Appreciative Inquiry, about generative approaches to
organizational development and design, and about the application of arts
based processes in the field of management and organization
development.
