Jeremy Heimans is the co-founder and CEO of Purpose, an organization headquartered in New York that builds and supports social movements around the world. He is the co-founder of GetUp!, an Australian political organization with more members than all of Australia's political parties combined. He has been named one of Fast Company’s Most Creative People in Business and received the Ford Foundation's 75th anniversary Visionary Award. With Henry Timms, Jeremy is co-author of the book NEW POWER: How Power Works in Our Hyperconnected World - and How to Make It Work for You, forthcoming April 2018 from Doubleday. Their thinking on “new power” was featured as the Big Idea in Harvard Business Review, as one of 2014’s top TED talks with over 1.25 million views, and by CNN as one of the Top Ten Ideas to Change the World in 2015. We explored a number of topics during our conversation, including: What new power is, how it differs to old power and what it means for today’s organisations How new power can be used for good and evil Lessons from the likes of LEGO, TED and Boaty McBoatface   You’ll learn that and much more in my conversation with the one and only, Jeremy Heimans.   Topics discussed: Jeremy’s book Jeremy’s upbringing and involvement in politics from the age of 8 What new power values and models are and how they differ from old power How large, traditional organisations are stuck in old power models and what the consequences of this might be Why radically transparent organisations have an edge over secretive ones The characteristics of a new power organisation Parallels between movements and methodologies like Agile and new power values The power of feedback loops and how to use them in a new power economy How the blockchain might support organisations looking to become more collaborative and decentralised How dark movements such as ISIS are co-opting new power How Facebook operates a new power model with old power values, perhaps to the detriment of society Why you should...occupy yourself? Why organisations need to commit if exploring new power and not just pay lip service to it as was the case with Boaty McBoatface How LEGO and TED use new power   Show Notes: Purpose: Purpose.org HBR article: https://hbr.org/2014/12/understanding-new-power Get Jeremy's books:  New Power: https://amzn.to/2NhTzpA New Power: How It's Changing The 21st Century: https://amzn.to/2PEVNRq New Power: How Power Works in Our Hyperconnected World: https://amzn.to/2Ls20g4 Twitter: @jeremyheimans GetUp!: https://www.getup.org.au   Join the conversation on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/futuresquared/ where you can discuss episodes, request guests, propose questions for forthcoming guests and access exclusive content and special offers!

For many years China was considered a basketcase with its population, resigned to a life of poverty in the rice fields . Yet today, 120 million Chinese tourists go abroad each year, often snapping up all of the latest trinkets of luxury brands like YSL, Prada and Chanel. In the last ten years alone, China’s GNP has increased from US$4.6T to over US$12T dollars, in fact, in 1985, that number was less than $500B. Less than 25 times what it is today. To put this into perspective, in the same timeframe, the United States’ GNP has little more than doubled, from US$8T in 1989 to about $17.5T today. So how did this happen and what can corporate innovators learn from this? --- If you’d like to receive a weekly email from me, complete with reflections, books I’ve been reading, words of wisdom and access to blogs, ebooks and more that I’m publishing on a regular basis, just head over to www.futuresquared.xyz/subscribe and you’ll get the very next one.

On 17 January 1944, the Office of the Strategic Services of the CIA issued the Simple Sabotage Field Manual. The manual remained classified for decades, becoming declassified in 2008. The purpose of the manual was to present suggestions for inciting and executing sabotage. The manual is full of 1940s references such as ‘axis nationals’, the latter no doubt falling victim to many of the manual’s methods. The manual breaks methods down into a number of categories such as Buildings, Manufacturing and Organisations. For example, on Buildings it states: whenever possible, arrange to have a fire start after you have gone away").  What’s striking about this section of the manual is its section on Interference with Organisations. Their suggested methods sound a lot of the dated management practices that plague large organisations today. In this episode of Fast Fix Friday I’m going to read out 5 ways you might be sabotaging your organisation. --- Join the conversation on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/futuresquared/ where you can discuss episodes, request guests, propose questions for forthcoming guests and access exclusive content and special offers! 14 Ways You're Sabotaging Your Organisation: https://www.collectivecampus.com.au/blog/14-ways-youre-sabotaging-your-organisation  Listen on iTunes @ goo.gl/sMnEa0 Listen on Spotify @ spoti.fi/2G2QsxV Listen on Stitcher @ www.stitcher.com/podcast/future Listen on Google Play @ bit.ly/FSGoog ‍ If you've got any questions on this podcast feel free to send an email to steve@collectivecamp.us or tweet me on Twitter @steveglaveski or @future_squared Follow me on Instagram: @thesteveglaveski Like us? ‍ It'd make our day if you took 1 minute to show some love on iTunes, Stitcher or Soundcloud by subscribing, sharing and giving us a 5 star rating. ‍ To sign up to our mailing list head to www.futuresquared.xyz For more information on Collective Campus, our innovation hub, school and consultancy based in Australia and Singapore check out www.collectivecampus.io GET COACHED BY LUCAS: https://www.ergogenic.health/product/coaching GET LUCAS TO DESIGN YOUR SUPPLEMENT PROTOCOL: https://www.ergogenic.health/product/custom-stack   Hosted on Acast.

Arj started his career in comedy after graduating from high school in 1989. His first gigs were at an old café called Caffe Nuvo in downtown San Anselmo where he hosted stand-up night every Sunday throughout the early 1990s. Barker has appeared on Premium Blend, Late Night with Conan O'Brien and The Glass House. He twice hosted Comedy Central Presents and was featured in Comedy Central's animated series Shorties Watchin' Shorties. Barker appeared in the HBO sitcom Flight of the Conchords and has enjoyed success in Australia for a number of years since first appearing at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 2000 and is currently in Melbourne as part of his We Need To Talk tour. You might be wondering why I invited a comedian to appear on the show. For one, there are many parallels between making it as a comedian, a musician, an athlete and an entrepreneur and we explore them in today’s conversation. That and Arj’s show, which I was lucky enough to catch on the Saturday night before this conversation, was heavy on tech talk, making fun of our tendency to become furious by 5 minute UBER wait times in this, the age of instant gratification. Arj only had 30 minutes to spare for our show, but we managed to explore a number of topics, including: Arj’s early days on the comedy circuit in California The power of silencing your inner critic Positive feedback loops How Arj tests new material and iterates Taking risks when you have nothing to lose The support of family Staying present and getting into flow when performing live Relating to and connecting with people Showing up, even when nobody’s watching   There’s many lessons in this one for entrepreneurs to learn from, and Arj even throws in one joke from his set, so with that….strap yourself in for the one and only, Arj Barker.   Show Notes: Arj’s tour dates: ArjBarker.com Get Tickets: ComedyFestival.com.au Do It Myself TV on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCL2TgeKrcWyKHq1ZTJDYOfg   --- Join the conversation on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/futuresquared/ where you can discuss episodes, request guests, propose questions for forthcoming guests and access exclusive content and special offers!
