Engineering the future of civilization with Lord John Browne

Engineers may not get the love they deserve, says author Lord John Browne, best known for his transformative tenure as CEO of energy giant BP. In this conversation recorded shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic, Browne explores themes from his latest book, "Make, Think, Imagine: Engineering the Future of Civilization," chief of which is the critical role engineering has played at the intersection of art and commerce. This reminder of engineering's ability to meet the world's challenges and forge a path to progress should strike an optimistic chord for investors and society.
