I just imagined"The Revolution will not be televised" playing in the background whilst reading the “Deep Breath” section. Thanks for sharing @John

HeHe @AnnabelleLambert Whereas @John is a visual artist (hope that is not an inappropriate label John?) we all have our art (Github anyone?). I found this article from the FT that interspersed words with “When the revolution comes” sound clips over the ages. Quite brilliant.

Welcome @LeeW Lee and Ethos worked together briefly at Thames Valley Police in their violence reduction unit. Lee is doing some interesting and socially valuable stuff with https://www.hopecollectiveuk.com/

You are warmly welcome here Lee. It’s only early days but we have some amazing questions for people to engage with like principles, governance and the bootstrap project we are calling pod0001.

Hi Annabelle and yes, it’s been a long time. Busier than ever at this end but always in a good way. Good to be here. Inevitably I will be sporadic! :grimacing:

I’m so engaged with your LI posts @John
We have just run the first webinar which was lovely. Webinar as opposed to podcast where we had a small group discussion. Excited to see that scale.

Yes - where are you @Joel_Escayg ? Great to see you again just now.

33

How can we get all the Young Leaders back again quite quickly - sharing their stories since the programme would be super interesting!

34

Well done… scale would be great wouldn’t it!!

35

Be good to hear your thoughts @Joel_Escayg
will have a think about that @robpye Further to conversation with Rawn also thought it would be good to engage some of the young networks that are springing up. for example the Bright Network…they match grads with employers…wonder if they would consider matching grads with our community as a space to engage their desires to deliver more social value…a different approach to work?
