Over the years, Corporate Rebels has grown into much more than just a blog. By expanding our activities we’ve been able to grow our impact around the world.Here’s an overview of the things we mostly do [documented as goals in this StratML rendition]
Back in January 2016, we (Joost & Pim) quit our corporate jobs. Like most people, we worked in outdated workplaces characterized by inertia, bureaucracy and a lack of motivation. We simply couldn’t accept that the world of work – for far too many – is a place full of misery and despair.In order to fight those dreadful workplaces, we started this blog – Corporate Rebels. By checking off our Bucket List, we visit the world’s most inspiring workplaces. We combine those practical insights with academic findings from our PhD research. Along the way, we share everything we learn.
Description:We started with two. Over time, more people joined forces and work with us to create a true workplace revolution. Here’s who we are.
Joost Minnaar

Pim de Morree
Description:Together with Joost I co-founded Corporate Rebels. I mainly focus on: researching, writing, speaking, and building our own company. -- I'm a strong believer in changing workplaces for the better. During my three years in a corporate job I became frustrated with the outdated working practices that many of us experience. Together with Joost, I set out to travel the globe to learn from all kinds of workplace pioneers. We knew there had to be better ways of working out there, we just didn't know what they were like. So, we set out to learn from the best.I love to blog, research, and speak on making work more fun. I'm also very passionate about the entrepreneurial side of Corporate Rebels. I love building our company, our practices, and our community.Besides work, I love to spend time with my girlfriend. Also, I love to spend my time kitesurfing, reading, and with friends.
