Today's episode of the MBA Series is focused on the next steps we should all be looking at. The idea of the next economy has an obvious connection to the future, but we also like to bring things into sight in the present and ground what we are doing with what is happening right now, all around us.
Here, Erin and Kevin cover some of the most fundamental bases, unpacking the subjects of healthcare, housing, and education, as well as looking at how you can find a good container for your energy and abilities. One of the pillars of this discussion, as always, is the concept of systems change, and how this can be accomplished.
Due to the breadth and depth of the necessary steps, we will most likely be dropping into a 'part two' of this conversation, so make sure to check back for that. But for now, join us to hear all about the areas and initiatives we are most inspired by and some fresh ideas that might just help you rethink how we can build a brighter world, together.
