Griet Peeraer

Griet Peeraer is an anthropologist and lecturer in organizational development, holding a PhD in medical sciences. Her work lies at the intersection of anthropology, learning processes, and organizational change, with a strong focus on what happens within organizations beyond formal structures, models, and plans.

She views organizations as social systems in which learning, culture, and meaning-making continuously shape one another. Her approach combines insights from anthropology, action learning, complexity thinking, and psychological safety with the practical design of learning and change interventions.

Griet is affiliated with Antwerp Management School, where she contributes as a professor to executive education, research initiatives, and master’s programs focused on leadership, teams, wellbeing, and learning in complex environments. In parallel, she works with both public and private organizations that invest in training and development, while looking for ways to strengthen learning impact and the transfer of knowledge into everyday practice.

She developed TEO® (Transfer Enabling Outcome) and the hattrick® methodology, approaches that explicitly connect learning with experimentation in the workplace and align with contemporary perspectives on organizational development and complexity thinking.

Across both her academic and professional work, the emphasis is not only on transferring knowledge, it is about creating the conditions that enable learning, behavioral change, and organizational development to take place.
