At August, we help large-scale, enterprise organizations deepen their capacity to learn and adapt fast enough to realize their purpose – with structures, processes, and tools that help them sense and respond to the shifting world around them.
But how do WE realize our purpose? Do we practice what we preach? Welcome to Emergent Agenda! The podcast about what we're up to - how we're structured, how we team, what crazy hopes and dreams we have for August that we're *trying* to turn into reality.
August co-founder Mike Arauz interviews Harvard professor Amy C Edmonson about psychological safety during a moment of crisis for organizations across the world.

Dear Corporate IT: Use Better Tools
One of our biggest struggles to enacting real change in enterprise organizations is convincing companies to relinquish old tech and embrace new, better functioning tools. “We’re worried about security!” “What about bandwidth?” “Integration?” “IT support?”
The answer to all these questions is: we have solutions! And it’s not just important, but absolutely critical to move on to tech that works with the work. The right tech unlocks new, more efficient, faster ways of working.
