ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Nature on the Board? Steward ownership? Employee ownership? Self-managing teams? For those seeking to establish regenerative organisations, the options in terms of how those organisations should be governed can feel overwhelming.
In this episode we dive deeper into the submerged world of governance and look at what it actually is, surface some principles of more regenerative approaches, jargon-bust a few buzzwords and look at some examples of organisations doing things differently.
My partners in this exploration are the co-founders of the aptly-named new venture, Regenerative Governance, Erica Neve and Patrick Andrews. Erica is a leader in business transformation, with a career spanning corporate transformation programs and mission-driven initiatives. She has helped global brands adopt nature-led and purpose-led business models to benefit both people and planet. Patrick (otherwise known as “The Barefoot Lawyer”) uses his decades of experience as a lawyer and governance advisor to help businesses find creative and holistic governance structures that contribute to a more just, sustainable society.
Together we have a wonderful collective geek-out on how important governance is and what it can do when approached with creativity, openness and heart.
