Hold up. What exactly is NER?

'NER’ is an acronym derived from the Spanish "Nuevo Estilo de Relaciones," or “New Style of Relationships.” It was pioneered by Koldo Saratxaga and it echoes his inherent belief in people. NER is about making people the true center of an organization and working with absolute transparency, trust, freedom, and responsibility.

Saratxaga led the change when he was the former CEO of the Basque luxury coach manufacturer, Irizar. He saved the organization from near bankruptcy and turned it into one of the world's most renowned luxury coach manufacturers.

Proven transformation strategies

Koldo has since transformed over 50 other organizations (just as he did with Irizar) with a company he created called K2K. K2K refers to itself as "a team of experts in organizational change based on NER and a new culture that designs human, livable, adaptable, and effective institutions."

And guess what? You will learn about two proven transformation strategies that NER has developed over the past 15 years. We’re talking about successful and proven transformation strategies with a simple step-by-step approach—just the spark you need to ignite change within your own team or organization.

Check out this short video animation and get to know the unique way of working of Panelfisa, a company that adopted to the NER way of working with help from K2K.
