I'm passionate about
Deeply connecting with the natural environment and understanding the natural systems that make human life possible.
An idea worth spreading
Humanity at large is not emotionally or cognitively prepared to behave in the ways that are necessary for a sustainable planet. The sensemaking narratives that most people use as a 'map' for their daily live and actions can deselect and block sustainability action. This is most so in organisations. This state of individual 'sustainability inaction' can be overcome by collective narrative anchoring interventions.
Areas of expertise
Biophillia and eco building design, Entrepreneurship, Sustainabilty leadership, Sustainable Enterprise
