Description

The Death of Nature. Inequality. Hate and Conflict. Population and Migration. Power and Corruption. Work and Technology. Health and Livelihood. These are some of the most urgent problems facing society today.

Where do you start? What is the role of Jobs-to-be-done in multi-stakeholder ecosystems?

Christian is co-founder (along with Philip Kotler) of The Wicked7 Project, an open-design project to discover and map the “unmet needs of society.” He joins Tony Ulwick to discuss the urgent need for cross-sector problem-solving and the need for a common language to bring us together in an age of ideology and polarization.
