#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.
