#247 - The Preamble: What's in a Name? | ensemble #0

We're thrilled to introduce a new format of the show — what we'll be calling Ensembles.

These ensembles are designed to be something of a meditation, helping us to explore the art of living and working sustainably and building a better world, from a different perspective.

The goal here through sharing various stories from the wide world of sustainability, social entrepreneurship, and innovation, is to seek understanding.

We're digging for the principles, values, and ideas that we can take with us on our collective journey to build a better, more sustainable world.

This still includes the tactical and practical of living and working more sustainably, using business to better the world, but our driving motivation will be to find wisdom.

These episodes are a shorter form complement to our longer more narrative and or educational shows.

If our other shows are heavy on action — these ensembles offer a different pace, with analysis, reflection, a means to distill and name, what matters.

So, our first ensemble here a preamble to all ensembles to come (if you will), will be digging deeper into this experimental format itself, this ensemble is titled:

What's in a name?
