🇬🇧TGIM #19 - How can we integrate nature-based thinking in answering organizational questions? with Katherine Long

In this episode, Katherine Long and Selio Verzera explore the complexities of today's era, organizations, and their dis-connection with nature-based thinking. Katherine offers a different perspective on how we can weave our dreams and our individual intentions into a cohesive fabric, fostering community and societal growth and bridging the gap between personal aspirations and collective fulfillment.  How do we weave and organize ourselves at whatever level, individual, community, societal, as nature? How might we bridge individual aspirations with community growth? Drawing from her childhood and work, Katherine explained the profound experience of being in close contact with nature, even for a few minutes. Being in nature in a certain way automatically takes people to an intense place where they feel, on different levels, the feeling of “own insignificance” standing at the foot of thousands of years old trees. Then, it is possible to recreate the proper condition for all living systems' innate capacity to heal.  When we understand that, some core principles and practices can support that healing at any level, and then we bring that healing or regenerative presence wherever we go, also in an organization. Katherine and Stelio speak about regenerative work as a pathway to peace—a different idea of working with the ecology of competition and collaboration, looking at what happens in nature and letting her teach us a more healthy ecology at work.  Sign up for the newsletter to receive episodes and other resources about Beautiful Work directly to your inbox: https://cocoon-pro.com/#subscribe [https://cocoon-pro.com/#subscribe]  _________ Ketherine hosts liberating dialogue spaces exploring themes such as regenerative practice, applying healing principles in all of life, and navigating the journey into Elderhood.

In questo episodio Letizia Piangerelli e Rita Sinorita Fierro esplorano il legame invisibile che esiste tra bellezza del lavoro, razzismo e giustizia sociale. Traendo spunto dalle sue diverse esperienze di vita e lavoro a cavallo tra Italia e Stati Uniti, Rita condivide la sua visione su come fare scelte giuste in un mondo ingiusto, vedere la bellezza e l'umanità anche nelle situazioni più difficili e su come portare avanti trasformazioni sociali sistemiche in istituzioni resistenti al cambiamento, partendo dal lavoro su di sé.  Nel condividere storie personali e collettive di guarigione e resilienza, Rita riflette sul ruolo della paura nel perpetuare le ingiustizie e sull'impatto del trauma istituzionalizzato nella nostra società, sottolineando come sia possibile immaginare e costruire un mondo più giusto, dove la compassione, il dialogo e la comprensione prendano il posto di forme di giustizia punitive e divisive.

I’ve been living in Barcelona since 2020, where I got my masters in Design Management. Since college I’ve developed a desire to get to know the world, so I traveled and lived in 4 different countries before coming to Spain. In my free time, I like to practice coffee and my skills as a barista, one of my favorite hobbies beyond my profession as designer. I have a strong background and passion for people management, change management and strategy, and it is inside this sweet spot that I’ve been trying to work and improve organizations. During 4 years in Brazil I had my own consultancy company, supporting big companies on their transformation path using design thinking as an approach. And now since I got to Spain I'm working with Nacar Design, a design agency based in Barcelona, first as HR Manager and then as Principal Designer, being the focal point between design teams, client and the agency.
