Episode 14: Nature of Work – a year of insights
<p>After more than a year of insights, re-imaginings and thought-provoking conversations, the Nature of Work podcast series is metamorphosing to a new life phase. <strong> </strong></p><br><p>Join co-hosts and authors, DWG’s CEO and Founder, Paul Miller, and Shimrit Janes, Director of Knowledge, as they reflect on this series of rich and diverse discussions, and look to the future. <strong> </strong></p><br><p>Since the publication of their ground-breaking book Nature of Work: The new story of work for a living age, the two have spoken with leaders from across the globe. They’ve discovered how nature’s patterns are influencing the creation of beautiful and varied workplaces, and delved deep into the quietly revolutionary concept that an organization isn’t a machine but a living organism.<strong> </strong></p><br><p>Evolution is certain and the next stage of Nature of Work’s lifecycle now beckons. For those drawn to the concepts and possibilities, there is the upcoming launch of the Nature of Work Forum, which marks the creation of a new community. Further research is planned and an exciting new channel, Rewilding Work, is on the horizon. <strong> </strong></p><br><p>So, to hear highlights from this first year of Nature of Work, as well as insights into how our two authors evolved their writing partnership into co-hosting a podcast, listen today.<strong> </strong></p><br><p>(Show notes, links and transcript for this episode.) </p><p> </p><p>Book: <a href="https://natureofwork.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Nature of Work: A new story of work for a living age</strong></a> </p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Episode 13: Imagining and realizing a more beautiful world of work
<p>What are the possibilities for a better and more beautiful world of work, if regenerative and life-centred approaches become an embedded part of how we work? </p><br><p>In this Nature of Work podcast, authors and co-hosts, DWG’s CEO Paul Miller and Shimrit Janes, Director of Knowledge, are joined by Dr Lauren ‘L’ Vargas, a ‘digital dragon wrangler’ who assists organizations with their community and communication strategies. </p><br><p>Together, they unpack the fundamentals of regenerative practices, including big ideas such as the opportunity to step beyond being human-centred and becoming truly life-centred at work. Within this, every single action we each take can feed or regress regenerative practice. Humans are not the only thing in the ecosystem to be impacted by our actions – and indeed, does nature come first? </p><br><p>In this passionate discussion, L takes us on a tour of her ‘Take ‘CARE’ to be ‘CALM’’ framework – a collaborative, anticipatory, leaderful and mindful approach she uses to guide digital transformation in a regenerative way. </p><br><p>From using play and science fiction to unlock conformed realities, through to sharing how individuals can approach introspective work, L draws on her academic and real-life corporate experiences to explain how regenerative practices can really show up. </p><br><p>Listen now for more about the potential to imagine and realize a more beautiful world of work. </p><br><p>(Show notes, links and transcript for this episode.) </p><p> </p><br><p><strong>Guest speaker: </strong> </p><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/vargaslmv/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Dr Lauren 'L' Vargas, digital dragon wrangler</strong></a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Episode 12: How nature and living systems can inspire meaningful change
<p>Change doesn’t really exist in nature because nature is change. So what lessons can we learn to take a more regenerative approach to evolution within our organizations and in response to the world around us? </p><p> </p><p>For this Nature of Work podcast, authors and co-hosts Paul Miller, DWG CEO, and Shimrit Janes, DWG Director of Knowledge, are joined by thought leader, trusted advisor and author of Leading from the Roots, Dr Kathleen Allen. </p><p> </p><p>Together, they explore the concept of the organization as an organism, with Kathleen sharing how nature and its patterns have influenced her own leadership practices. </p><br><p>Being adaptive is a human capacity and the three discuss whether a more ‘growthful’ approach to change could shift dynamics. Indeed, if organizations are considered as living systems, how can their interdependencies and connections be used to help cultivate future direction? And what is the importance of leadership emotional intelligence in helping people to adapt through such change. </p><p> </p><p>Follow the conversation, which offers new ways to view change through a nature-inspired lens. </p><p> </p><p>(Show notes, links and transcript for this episode.) </p><p> </p><p><strong>Guest speaker: </strong> </p><br><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathy-allen-b5293110/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Dr Kathleen Allen, thought leader, author and trusted advisor </strong></a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
