Let’s Reboot the Future
Love at the Centre: Gareth Jenkins
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Seasoned creative, entrepreneur, and advocate for a regenerative future, Gareth Jenkins joins Let’s Reboot the Future to share how life experiences, from encounters with racism to time spent at Plum Village, gently chipped away at his childhood naivety and led him back to something deeper: a belief that the future doesn’t have to be a continuation of the way things are today, and that we can remake it with kindness, fairness, and love at its centre.
Gareth reflects on how waking up to the harshness of the world can create both emptiness and a longing to learn new ways of living and seeing, ways that move beyond fear, protection, and the masks we build, and instead reconnect us to what it means to be human.
He shares why he believes emotional intelligence, time in nature, and immersive experiences offer powerful guidance for shaping a better future, not through data and models alone, but through emotions, connection, and the stories that remind us what truly matters.
This is a hopeful story about responsibility, creativity, and the courage to believe that a kinder world is possible.
Gareth Jenkins is currently Global Head of Storytelling at EY, working with the firm’s senior leadership to craft human-centric narratives across sustainability, technology and geopolitics. His work aims to inspire EY’s people and clients that a better tomorrow is possible, and that those of us in business have a role and responsibility to make it a reality.
Here he speaks to us in his personal capacity as a storyteller and creative.
