What’s in this episode?
We introduce the concept of the pod and then chat about the latest news in our movement. Then, as the main topic of this episode we discuss one of the two pillars of movement strategy: Knowledge as a Service. During our guest interview we learn more about the origin story of the strategic direction and discuss its relevance for the future of our movement and for the way we provide our services.
