Turning Trauma into Purpose with Stuart Green
In 2017, Stuart Green suffered the kind of loss we all dread. His wife Mia, a human rights and environmental lawyer, was brutally murdered by a hit squad in front of their three children near their home in the Philippines. As a scientist, Stuart decided to research how best to recover from trauma and, after reading 500 pieces of literature, realised that the answer was to abandon the past and embrace the future.
His book, the Regenerate Leap, provides a template for organisations to not just survive but thrive in a turbulent world. He rejects the idea of ‘resilience’ as that is backwards looking, preferring to think about having the mental agility to adapt to the new reality. In this inspirational episode of the pod, Stuart and I discuss how to apply regenerative thinking to organisations facing the transition to the low carbon economy.
