S2 E21: Consciousness and capitalism with Ed Gillespie
Show Notes

Ed Gillespie is a writer, communications specialist, serial entrepreneur, and futurist. Ed takes the complex, interconnected, interdependent nature of the many challenges the world faces, from climate change to disruptive innovation, and make common sense of them.

Currently, Ed’s focus is helping organisations rapidly understand the new Covid-19 world, how we need to ‘unlearn’ the things that caused mistakes of the past, asking the right questions, and moving beyond the discomfort of today into being the better, more resilient, responsible and sustainable businesses of tomorrow. 

Ed co-presents two leading podcasts, 'The Great Humbling' and 'Jon Richardson and the Futurenauts - How to survive the apocalypse'.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • Consciousness and consumption
  • Grieving the world as we knew it
  • Having conversations about consciousness and the future at work
  • Making sense of what happened in 2020 and what's to come in 2021.
