Very rarely do we host guests who get in touch requesting an interview on Better World Leaders, however the nature of Christopher Marquis' note stood out and I'm delighted that we have somehow entangled to create this conversation.

Christopher is Sinyi Professor of Chinese Management at the Judge Business School at Cambridge University and has a background in both social and organisational change movements. In this conversation we explore the focus of his last book, The Profiteers, and he reveals the underlying framework for change embedded within that work.

This conversation provides several 'tangible' and relatable examples of organisations successfully striving to both themselves enact change, and catalyse greater transformation in our economies, societies and broader structures, and I'm grateful to Chris for his time in creating this episode, and for all his ongoing endeavours teaching within one of the world's most prestigious business schools.

We'll be back with more from Better World Leaders, and continuing our season on frameworks, very soon!

Until then, be well, lead well and keep on co-creating better futures.

This conversation is as serious as it is playful, as practical in exploration of practice as it is theoretical in examination of a framework, and as generative a journey for me as a practictioner as it is fascinating as a podcaster! Welcome to the wonderful, rich and informative dialogue with Bill Sharpe, co-creator of the 3 Horizons futures framework.

For anyone interested in leaning into futures thinking and creating experiences of futures work for leaders, groups or whole organisations, this conversation could well be of interest.

Having been aware of 3 Horizons for a few years, read the book several time and been practicing the framework with groups on numerous occasions, this was a wonderful opportunity to be in dialogue with Bill sharing our experiences, practices and practical examples of applying the framework in real living contexts.

We hope you enjoy the discussion, and either deepen or begin your own exploration of this fabulous framework for accessing futures thinking.

On the very short list of organisations, entities and gatherings of folk that I've been wholly nurtured, enabled and impacted is Regenesis Institute.

One of the key creators of developmental programs at Regenesis is Ben Haggard, and I've been fortunate to participate in several programs Ben has led and created. Ben is the Director of Educational Programs at the Regenesis Institute of Sustainable Communities, a core element of Regenesis Group.

In this episode we concentrate most explicitly on the functioning of frameworks, their utility for considering and interpreting the world, designing intentional development experiences and crucially to create ways of interacting with and aligning with systems which centre, honour and regenerate life.

I learn so much each and every time I interact with Ben, and co-creating this conversation was a great honour.

You can connect with Ben, and explore more of his work and sign-up for courses at Regenesis via the links below;
