In this episode, we're exploring the crucial relationship between power and diversity with our exceptional guest, Bob Gower.

Bob is a New York-based author, speaker, and consultant who is passionate about creating organisation's that make a positive impact on the world. In this episode, he takes us on a journey through his travels around the globe, sharing valuable insights on how it has influenced his life and work. We also discuss his latest book, Radical Alignment: How to Have Game-Changing Conversations That Will Transform Your Business and Your Life, and the critical takeaway of "Low Drama, High Joy."

Key Takeaways that you won't want to miss:

• Diversity is vital, but it comes with its share of challenges. While it brings strength, it can also cause friction and division. However, now more than ever, it's essential that we work towards equality and sustainability.
• We explore the differences between gatekeeping and co-creating, two approaches to sharing power. Bob argues that we must lean into the challenge of diversity to create a more equitable future.
• Underrepresented groups often face significant challenges when it comes to claiming their share of power. Bob shares his thoughts on the obstacles that they must overcome to achieve true equality.
• Uncomfortable truths are critical to making progress in society, and we examine the role of the Black Lives Matter movement and rising inequalities. It's more important than ever to lean into discomfort rather than building narratives and restrictions against it.
• We discuss the critical role of morality, ethics, and goodness in understanding the virtues of the human system, as well as Aristotle's concept of virtual ethics coupled to delving into the work of Viktor E Frankl and more.
• Finally, we examine our foundations, including economic models and societal change, and consider our thoughts for the future. Are we entering a new economic paradigm shift, or are those in power limiting change to maintain control, which never ends well for anyone, including the rich?
