Show Notes

Colleen Kirtland is on a learning journey, and in this episode, she shares her passion for and commitment to learning as much as possible from nature. Pointing to many resources and examples of biomimicry, economics, and above all systems thinking, Kirtland invites us to think about creating systems that not just grow linearly but thrive. She argues that "resiliency is built over a very long time," and the same can be said for agile. "As I'm unpeeling life itself, I'm learning to be a better leader and a better coach of teams…" Accenture | SolutionsIQ's William Rowden hosts. (Stick around until the end for some more insights and fun interaction.)
