Kaila Colbin: Courage In The Face Of An Unwritten Future

DNA Of Purpose - A podcast by Rebecca Maklad

Categories:

Welcome to another episode of The Decoding Purpose Podcast.We are living in a VUCA world - short for volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. A world defined by social change, economic change, or climate change. An age where emerging technologies meet global pandemics, where our social values converge with our political ones, and where old paradigms of thought and behaviour are being replaced by the new, the unknown and the uncertain. In a conversation about turning points, we are in a tornado of change, and the only thing that seems crystal clear to me is the need for courage.So where do we begin in translating this complexity, in order to firstly gain clarity, and from there to lean into the courage required to navigate an unwritten economy and future? I know this has been a burning question for me...and one that led me to today's incredible guest - Kaila Colbin.Kaila Colbin is a co-founder of Boma Global and the CEO of Boma New Zealand. She spearheaded the hugely successful SingularityU New Zealand and Australia Summits. After training with Brené Brown, Kaila became a Certified Dare to Lead™ Facilitator, and has worked with hundreds of people to increase courage as a core competency.Kaila was formerly the Curator and Licensee for TEDxChristchurch in New Zealand and TEDxScottBase in Antarctica, that said it is evident that Kaila is herself a global thought leader - not that she would frame it that way. She would prefer to see herself as a public intellectual with a focus on translating the gold-plated evidence even when it's vulnerable, risky or requires radical acts of bravery.Please welcome to the podcast, the incredible Kaila Colbin.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
