Greetings!
The world has never seemed more interconnected than it has this year, and, in some ways, it has never felt so separated. This paradox is one of a million we wrestle with each day at work and at home. In our newsletter this month, come and join us as we explore some of these paradoxes together and find new ways to not feel exhausted by them but to use them as a new source of energy and insight.

On June 8 Nicolai will lead a conversation exploring the question How might you design work and organizations for ambitious people? You can join without having attended any of the previous conversations with Nicolai.
