Welcome to the show. Have you ever thought about the similarities between nature and business. Well to be honest until I read the book of todays' guest I never did. So today we're going to look at this. We will explore how nature can be one of our greatest teachers in business and leadership. We'll look at what ecosystems can teach us about collaboration, competition, and change—and how these lessons can help organizations not just survive, but truly thrive.
