Aart Bontekoning is a social psychologist and author with a PhD in Generations in Organizations from Tilburg University. He specializes in how intergenerational interaction drives organizational renewal, delivering keynotes and masterclasses on social innovation and breaking destructive patterns within aging companies.

Aart channels his passion for his subject into writing and teaching, having authored "The Power of Generations" and created an online masterclass to share his research widely. He focuses on creating environments where younger generations can thrive, believing learning energy is a matter of climate, not just motivation.

His upcoming book, which explores how young generations renew organizations from within, is already available for pre-sale ahead of its January 2026 release.
