Thriving: The Breakthrough Movement

De: Wayne Visser
  • Resumen

  • Join me, Prof Wayne Visser, for inspiring conversations with leaders in the breakthrough movement to regenerate nature, society and the economy. Thriving is about going beyond sustainability to a net positive agenda of innovation and regeneration. Each episode is a dialogue with thought leaders and pioneering practitioners, capturing their perspective on the six great transitions to thriving: how to go from degradation to restoration of ecosystems, from depletion to renewal of resources, from disparity to responsibility in communities and workplaces, from disease to revitalisation of health, from disconnection to rewiring through technology, and from disruption to resilience in infrastructure and institutions. We also explore what kind of leadership are needed to create a thriving future, and how organisations can take action to integrate thriving into their strategies, products and services. This is not about false hope or blind optimism, but we actively focus on innovative solutions and positive tipping points for change. The podcast builds on the foundations of my bestselling book "Thriving: The Breakthrough Movement to Regenerate Nature, Society and the Economy." I look forward to having you join the movement for thriving and welcome your suggestions for who I should feature as invited guests on the podcast. Credits: Host: Wayne Visser.

  • 45. A Systems View of Life, with Fritjof Capra
    Dec 7 2023

    My guest this week is Fritjof Capra, living systems theorist and bestselling author of The Systems View of Life. He discusses how:

    • Systems thinking represents a shift from a mechanistic to an organic or network worldview
    • Complexity theory brought a breakthrough in our understanding of living systems
    • Living systems are self-organising networks with processes of creativity and regeneration
    • Social systems are enabled by communities of practice, informal communication and culture
    • Change agency happens by aligning with and reinforcing feedback loops through movements

  • 44. Stories of Life, Land and a Farming Revolution, with Sarah Langford
    Nov 9 2023

    My guest this week is Sarah Langford, author of Rooted: Stories of Life, Land and a Farming Revolution. She discusses how:

    • The UK’s policy of “public money for public good” is helping farmers to reclaim their role as stewards of the land
    • We can learn lessons for transforming the food sector from farmers struggling with the transition to regenerative agriculture
    • Reforming the agricultural system needs to simultaneously tackle public health, biodiversity loss and food security
    • Livestock farming (and the diets that supports this) needs to change, but cellular agriculture and precision fermentation have challenges
    • It is a myth that there is a trade-off between food production (yields) and nature conservation in regenerative farming

  • 43. The Purpose of Capital and the Nature of Value, with Jed Emerson
    Oct 26 2023

    My guest this week is Jed Emerson, Chief Impact Officer, AlTi Tiedemann Global and author of The Purpose of Capital. He discusses how:

    • Impact investing, social return on investment, venture philanthropy, and blended value are related, reinforcing concepts and practices
    • ESG investing is not a new idea or practice, going back at least to the Mennonite shareholder activism in relation to the Dutch East India Company
    • The ethical investment movement has evolved from screened socially responsible investments and best in class approaches to ESG integration and impact investing
    • ESG investment has reached a critical mass, but the business risk-based approach (single materiality) resulted in perceptions of greenwashing
    • Stakeholder capitalism represents a shift in societal norms and expectations of business, but face significant resistance from incumbent vested interests
