#28 Oona Horx Strathern: How to lead into a kind future?

In today’s episode, we sit down with Oona Horx Strathern to talk
about how we can lead into a kind future. Oona regularly speaks and
writes on living in the future and produces her annual home report
on the future of design, home, architecture, and building. As a
trend consultant, she has worked for many international firms such
as Unilever, Beiersdorf and the Deutsche bank and works with
everyone from home design and building companies to organisations,
associations, local government and city councils. Considering the
broad spectrum of her client base and work, we were keen to hear
about her insights on our collective journey toward a kinder
economy. To better understand how we can lead the way to a kinder
workplace, we talk about our innate and collective yearning for
meaningful connections, compassion and sense of community, people
as resources for profits and what true kindness really entails. We
then move on to intertwine our newly found insights with the future
of leadership and team work. All in all, we can only say that this
conversation is a blessing in the sense that it can help people
think about the future in new and kind ways. Give it a listen, if
you feel called to.
