Episode #51: Agile Government Starts With You *midweek keynote special*
Collective Campus recently hosted an event called Disrupt the Public Sector, as part of the Australian Government’s Innovation Month 2016. The event saw over 100 public servants making their way to pack our event space in Melbourne’s CBD - they heard from a number of thought leaders talk innovation in Government - why it’s important, what it looks like, what the barriers are and how we might navigate these barriers. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to speak on the topic of an Agile Government and how transforming the way government thinks and moves begins with being more self-aware and ownership of our daily actions, both great and small. I touched on a number of topics in this talk such as bottom-up innovation including various examples of how employees are driving change and how to get buy-in from the top in Government. So this episode is a little bit different - the audio quality might not be as great as our usual episodes, as this was recorded live before an audience, but having received lots of positive feedback post the talk, I thought that sharing it with listeners of Future Squared would provide a lot of value. Even if you don’t work for Government, the concepts I discussed in this talk are just as relevant in a large enterprise as they in many startups. By now you’ll know I’m a big fan of experimentation, so consider this episode an experiment of sorts, reliant on you the listener to validate or invalidate the assumption that people want to hear this kind of content! if you’d like to hear more of these midweek specials, then I’d love to hear from you - you can email me at steve@collectivecamp.us or hit me up on twitter @steveglaveski Listen on iTunes: goo.gl/sMnEa0 Listen on Stitcher: www.stitcher.com/podcast/future 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.

Episode #50: The Age of Discovery with Chris Kutarna
I speak to Chris Kutarna, a two-time Governor General's Medallist, a Sauvé Fellow and Commonwealth Scholar, and a Fellow of the Oxford Martin School with a doctorate in politics from the University of Oxford. A former consultant with the Boston Consulting Group, then entrepreneur, Chris lived in China for several years, speaks Mandarin, and remains a regular op-ed contributor to one of China's top-ranked news magazines. (He lived in Australia and New Zealand for several years, and still cannot surf.) He is the co-author of The Age of Discovery - Navigating the Risks and Rewards of Our Reneissance, which shows how we can draw courage and wisdom from the last Renaissance in order to fashion our own golden age out of this New Renaissance. Whether we’re seized by Gutenberg or Zuckerberg; the discovery of the Americas or the rise of China; copperplate or silicon etching; —a Renaissance moment, we’re told, then and now, forces humanity to give its best just when the stakes are highest. Age of Discovery navigates the crises of our time and helps us all define a legacy that the world will still celebrate half a millennium from now. Topics Discussed: - Will artificial intelligence liberate us or destroy us? - What is the role of Government in a rapidly changing technological and economic landscape? - What happens when the world’s concentration of wealth becomes centralized in one place such as Silicon Valley? - What the implications of an increasingly connected world are? - What Brexit and the rise of Donald Trump really mean? - What we, as a people, need to do to ensure our longevity as a species? - Does policy need to be re-written to adapt to these changing times? - Are we facing a productivity paradox whereby the next generation will need to suffer and adjust to changes in order for subsequent generations to reap the rewards?
