How is it possible to combine insight and effect in such a way that the two worlds do not get in each other&#8217;s way, but rather complement and cross-fertilize each other? How can we build a bridge between thinking and doing that benefits both sides?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">For me, the proverbial ivory tower is the spectre of a science that loses itself in the preoccupation with itself: Glass bead games that self-assuredly miss the questions of our time. On the other hand, the blind actionism of an unreflective doing is often enough exhausted in the mechanics of an unimaginative &#8220;business as usual&#8221;. Neither of these are attractive perspectives &#8211; especially in view of the pressing challenges of our time.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/sonjazillner.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/DSC00653-scaled-e1613469217640.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;DSC00653&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;71px|0px|34px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||19px|||&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset2&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; min_height=&#8221;855px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; min_height=&#8221;100px&#8221; height=&#8221;804px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">So how do you create connections, transcend boundaries, produce short circuits that lead out of the speechlessness of the confined? Without appropriate translation work, this is an impossibility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">As with any good translation, for me this first requires knowledge of both worlds. Only those who know and respect the customs and traditions of the other side can make themselves heard here. As important as respect for the rules of the game on both sides is &#8211; in order to travel successfully between these worlds, curiosity and a certain form of distance are also indispensable for me. Taking sides calms one&#8217;s own vanity; the tendency to talk to oneself does not diminish as a result &#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Of course, this attitude also has its price: it is more difficult to position oneself, such border crossings are not always warmly welcomed, and often enough the respective stable odor is more important than the encounter on unfamiliar terrain. But all this does not make the lifelong experiment of translation attempts and changes of perspective any less exciting: &#8220;There&#8217;s no free lunch in life,&#8221; as the saying goes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">For me, this narrative has now moved beyond the professional context to a question of personal attitude. If one wants to use the potential of theory and practice to work on the larger questions of our time, then it makes sense to do so from the position of a &#8220;positive deviant&#8221;: a wanderer between worlds who creates connections in order to escape the tunnel vision of self-assurance, asks questions instead of underpinning answers &#8211; and thus opens up new perspectives wherever the reference to the familiar is no longer sufficient to find one&#8217;s way in a radically changing world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">If you are working on similar topics, or also think that our world in its current state would benefit from more lateral thinkers and pattern breakers than optimizers of the present, then I cordially invite you to network with me.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sonjazillner.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/SZ-Unterschrift-1-300x144.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-160 alignnone size-medium\" width=\"244\" height=\"117\" \/><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][dnxte_timeline dnxte_triangle_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221;
