"This Could be Our Future'': A conversation with Yancey Strickler, founder of Kickstarter.
Have you ever asked yourself what it’s like to be an owner of a philosophical concept? Yancey Strickler, co-founder of Kickstarter, author of “This Could Be Our Future - A Manifesto for a More Generous World” and founder of Bentoism, has the answer to that and many more questions in this episode. In his book, Yancey addresses why now more than ever values matter over value. “While the pursuit of wealth has produced innovation and prosperity, it also established an implicit belief that the right choice in every decision is whichever option makes the most money. The answer isn’t to get rid of money; it’s to expand our concept of value." So how can we build organizations and institutions that are based less on maximizing financial gain and more on people and sustainable principles?
