Tyler Preston is a passionate chef who discovered his love for cooking at just 12 years old in Wellington. After graduating high school, he moved to Melbourne at 18 to start his culinary adventure. With over 20 years of experience, Tyler began his career at the iconic Vegie Bar in Fitzroy, mastering the art of wok cooking. After a brief stint in music and audio engineering, Tyler returned to the kitchen, becoming Head Chef at Melbourne hotspots like Declieu and Seven Seeds and working at Chin Chin. In 2013, he and his wife opened Sir Charles cafe, which was shortlisted for Time Out's Best Cafe. I first met Tyler and chatted to him on the podcast a couple years after that when he was at Dr Morse in Abbotsford and happily caught up with him again when he was in Byron Bay running Bang Bang. During COVID, he founded South East Canteen, offering Asian-inspired private dining and ready-made meals. In 2023, Tyler moved to Bali to join the Milk and Madu Group, launching Longtime, a modern Asian diner and bar. Tyler is thoughtful and articulate when he talks food and hospitality and we discussed the ups as well as the downs of the industry as a whole. There are definite ups where Longtime is concerned. This is an exciting project and Bali is firmly in the travel plans when Longtime opens in August.

This week on Down the Garden Path, Joanne Shaw welcomes author Alan Heeks to the podcast to discuss his self-help book, Natural Happiness: Use Organic Gardening Skills to Cultivate Yourself.  About Alan Heeks Alan Heeks is an inspiring guide to helping people cultivate their well-being through parallels with Nature. After a Harvard MBA and a successful career managing building materials businesses, Alan has spent 30 years creating nature-based learning venues, and leading groups there. In 1990, he started Magdalen Environmental Trust, converting 130 acres to a mixed organic farm. Since 1992 he has created Hazel Hill Wood as a 70-acre conservation wood and retreat centre. Alan has led many workshops with his Seven Seeds of Natural Happiness approach, including individuals, community groups, and NHS doctors.  Here are some of the topics covered in this episode: Natural Happiness can help you dig deep and stay cheerful in these stormy times. It shows how you can use gardening methods such as composting, mulching, and crop rotation to cultivate human nature, too. A gardener applies skills like observation, patience and creativity, and you can adapt them to deal with daily stresses and big issues such as climate change. Alan's approach is positive and practical, easy to use for gardeners and others. On the podcast and on YouTube, they talked about the interesting and practical exercises sprinkled throughout the book The Nourish Your Roots exercise suggests trying Tree Talk. Imagine yourself as a tree and consider whether all parts of you are in balance. The roots, the trunk and your branches. It is a practical and helpful exercise, especially when it encourages us to do some pruning! Another self-help “quickie” we discussed was how we handle compaction in our lives. Alan related it to the soil in a garden, which for gardeners is a very clear analogy. If our soil has good structure and is permeable then the air, heat, water, and nutrients can get in. The opposite is compaction. Many of us know how to handle compaction in the garden more than we know how to handle it in our lives. This book is full of these practical and thought-provoking exercises. With such chapters as "Use Natural Energy Sources," "Compost Your Troubles," "Cultivating Community" and "Growing Through Climate Change," you are in for a wonderful helpful book even if you are not a gardener. This book also inspires the child in all of us who remember drawing trees, climbing trees and playing outside. Whatever you might have going on in your life, Natural Happiness: Use Organic Gardening Skiles to Cultivate Yourself would be a wonderful addition to your bookshelf.

In this episode of Dominate Your Day, I explore the crucial theme of organizational culture with my guest Dan Bredesen, author of 'The Seeds of Culture.' Dan talks about his unique journey from a Wisconsin farm to leading sales teams at a Fortune 500 company and how his diverse experiences shaped his understanding of culture in the corporate world. We discuss Dan's concept of 'culture farming,' where, akin to nurturing crops, a culture should be grown organically within an organization rather than forcibly built. He introduces the 'seven seeds of culture,' including effective communication, ethics, psychological safety, diversity, equity, inclusion, generosity, autonomy, and mutual accountability. Dan argues that these elements are essential for creating an environment where culture thrives, driving organizational performance and commitment. The episode also highlights the importance of patience, understanding culture as an ongoing process, and how leaders can foster a supportive, inclusive, and high-performing workplace.

This week, a technologically-augmented interdimensional mummy runs amok on a replica of the Orient Express in space under the control of a terrifying alien intelligence or something. It's a day at the office for Doctor Who, in Mummy on the Orient Express. Notes and links Mummy on the Orient Express marks the triumphant return of Janet Henfrey to Doctor Who after about twenty-five years: she plays Miss Hardaker in The Curse of Fenric. She will come back some time after that to play the Adjudicator in Sil and the Seven Seeds of Arodor. David Bamber is in charge of this version of the Orient Express: Nathan recognises him immediately as Cicero in Rome and as Mr Collins in Pride and Prejudice. Richard notes that he plays [Adolf Hitler][] in Valkyrie (2008), and perhaps more terrifyingly Noel in Camping, a sitcom created by Julia Davis. Si saw him turn up in an episode of Endeavour, the Inspector Morse prequel set in the late 1960s. Meanwhile, Christopher Villiers returns to Doctor Who as Professor Moorhouse; thirty years earlier he was young Hugh Fitzwilliam in The King's Demons. Alarmingly, Richard is right to suggest that he is a descendant of the aristocracy. And finally, Frank Skinner is a famous standup comedian and radio presenter. The show Richard is thinking of may be The Rest is History on Radio 4, but he has been in many, many radio shows over the years. You can see John Sessions's 1994 audition to play the Doctor in the TV movie here on YouTube. He plays the terrifying General Tannis in the BBC webcast Death Comes to Time (2001). In 2018, Jenna Coleman starred in a TV miniseries called The Cry, which was shot in Australia. Follow us Nathan is on Twitter as @nathanbottomley, Brendan is @brandybongos, Si is @Si_Hart, and Richard is @RichardLStone. The Flight Through Entirety theme was arranged by Cameron Lam.

How we market our values to potential employees and the consumer is often at odds with what we actually do. In a past episode we called this the “Values - Action Gap”. Question is, what is the result of this gap on the people who sign on with us and believe our marketing only to discover it was insincere at best or an outright lie at worst? For many the result is a condition called “Moral Injury” and it often has deep and long -term consequences on the individual, the company's and the industry at large.  I first heard the term “Moral Injury” from a short but compelling Instagram post from todays guest, Josh Tarlo. In it he described both term and how this was and unfortunate part of many peoples experience working for specialty coffee businesses. After recording a short video in response I realized it is a much deeper topic and invited Josh to discuss it on the podcast.  Josh Tarlo has been in coffee for over 18 years.Josh has moved from working in cafes in Toronto to heading to Australia to work at places like Seven Seeds and Veneziano, where he got some time behind a roaster to ending up in the UK as a green buyer at Origin and now running the roastery operations and wholesale departments for a coffee company in London called Kiss the Hippo. Josh also came 3rd in the Australian brewers cup before heading home to Canada to take gold and getting third in the world in 2013. After that he roasted coffee for competitors with 7 of the last 9 podium spots in the UK and took the title himself in 2018.  He has spent time in  over a dozen coffee producing countries over dozens of trips. In the travels he judged for Cup of Excellence and had the pleasure of working with many producers directly. On today's show we take a deep dive into marketing, values, moral injury, and how we can create a more cohesive and consistent reality that backs up our marketing and creates environments of trust and integrity.  We discuss: Meaning and values in coffee Financial success as a value Consolidation and false examples of success  What is moral injury and its results  The impact of belief and passion on consistency Marketing values you don't live out  Peoples expectations Proactivity and communication Building a business that lets you live you values Living values as a reward unto itself Authenticity and delivering a human experience Being careful of where you place your identity The power dynamic Why, as an owner, you get back what you give   Links: www.joshtarlo.com www.kissthehippo.com https://www.instagram.com/josh.tarlo/   Related Episodes: Bridging the Values-Actions Gap 318 : Why Your Shop is Key to the Success of Coffee Commit Before You Communicate Small steps = Big Impact 244 : Top 10 Ways to Lose Employees   Visit our awesome sponsors!

When a friend took me to Bonanza Coffee on Berlin's buzzing Oderberger Strasse back in 2006, I felt disturbed and suspicious about the whole thing. This had nothing to do with my beloved old-fashioned Italian-style espresso places where I'd usually have a cup of the dark, bitter drink. It took me years to understand this new kind of coffee, to taste, to smell, and appreciate the whole complex flavor and aroma profile; to accept that an old tradition was taken in the hands of a bunch of young people to experiment and to create something different with the good old coffee bean that's been a part of our culinary heritage since at least the 15th century. Young Kiduk Reus, one of the founders of Bonanza, was one of those kids - curious, brave, and fearless, and ready for a new chapter in his life. After studying design at the Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam and at the Rietveld Academy of Arts in Amsterdam, after successfully working in the advertising industry, he felt that Berlin was calling his name in 2004. He packed his bags, the vague idea of starting a speciality coffee shop at the back of his mind. That was the beginning of a time that would later become known as the worldwide Third Wave Coffee Movement. Born in Seoul, South Korea, adopted at the age of 4 by an American mother and a Dutch father, Kiduk grew up in the Netherlands in a town famous for cheese, in Gouda. Food played an important role. He remembers being a picky child knowing exactly what he wanted to eat and what he didn't. His palate was already refined, a skill that would come in handy later in his life. In the following years, Kiduk learned what would become a mantra in his life: I need this, it needs to be better, I improve it. And then, miraculously (or not), other people pick up on it. Understanding that he has to be the motor to bring movement to his ideas, he always had the soul of an entrepreneur. Not waiting for others to come up with something great or to improve something existing, he jumped in first to create what he needed to move on and fulfill his mission. So when he started the first Bonanza coffee shop together with his partner he knew he wanted to roast his own beans as soon as possible to simply reach and keep the quality that he had in mind. Coincidentally, Kiduk noticed that some old cast-iron equipment - stored in an old airplane hangar by a friend of his and that he had access to - was the best possible equipment for roasting coffee beans. So he jumped on the occasion and spontaneously started a business that would in the end finance Bonanza for a long time. He bought the old parts and machines, added new parts to make them work even better, and became the Berlin man to supply roasting machines to all the big names in the speciality coffee roasting business worldwide. Blue Bottle, Seven Seeds, and about another 250 coffee roasters went to Kiduk Reus' workshop and got their vintage equipment, customized by Kiduk himself and his growing team of mechanics. Kiduk says he listens to his mind more than to his feeling. His intuition is definitely absolutely reliable. Many of his decisions seem random at first but then turn into something great. For this podcast episode, Kiduk teaches me how to make the perfect hand-brewed coffee.

When Carlos Wallace was laid off during the pandemic, the timing was serendipitous.  Two months prior, Carlos, who'd already been barbequing for eight years, decided to turn his love for smoked meats into a proper side hustle. He opened Seven Seeds Texas Barbeque, named for his seven children, and started to serve up everything from briskets, BBQ and ribs to dishes inspired by his wife's Trinidadian heritage. Once he'd been laid off, as a dad to seven kids aged 22 through 3 months, he needed a new plan, fast. So Carlos put everything into Seven Seeds, and he hasn't looked back since.  “Layoffs rip the band-aid off,” he says. “They forced my hand and caused me to have to come up with a solution, which I did.”  New to the role of entrepreneur, Carlos spent years working on oil fields — a job that saw him away from home between 250 and 300 days a year — before moving into a corporate role. He knew he needed to make a change and be present more for his kids. Corporate life was stressful, though, not to mention not as well paid compared to his time on the fields.  Today, as the owner of his own Seven Seeds Texas Barbeque food truck, he's still working long hours, but he's also with his kids more; his oldest child and wife often work with him. It's become a family labor of love, one they're determined to see through.  In this episode of the Working For a Dream Podcast — the first to be recorded onsite at Trailer King Builders' Houston headquarters — Patrick and Drew talk about going all in as an entrepreneur and running a business for, and with, your family.   What You'll Learn: What a typical day, as a small business owner and father to seven kids, looks like for Carlos What's helping him transition from an employee to entrepreneur mindset How he stays motivated And much more!   Favorite Quote: “I can only afford to pay my employees right now. I'm not even paying myself yet… but even not paying myself, I'm still happier than I was when I was working in the corporate office making money for somebody else.” — Carlos Wallace   How to Get Involved: Connect with Carlos:  Seven Seeds Texas BBQ Facebook Instagram   Connect with Patrick:  LinkedIn Facebook Instagram

Shariff Abdullah – COVID-19 Crisis and OpportunityCaterpillar’s Last Stand, and How We Connect the Emerging “Imaginal Cells”Aired Tuesday, May 26, 2020 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM ESTAn Interview with Author and Activist Shariff Abdullah“Compared to downheaval, upheaval is the lesser of two heavals.” — Swami BeyondanandaAs more of us have come to recognize, fear – and the fight or flight response – puts us in our hindbrain, where we are hard-wired for survival. This is essential for the short term, but what about the bigger picture?Transformative ideas and evolutionary solutions, and out-of-the-box creativity come from our forebrain. In times of crisis and upheaval, the urgency of the shituation gets our attention. And … it’s the creative part of ourselves that must give us the INTENTION.Our guest this week, Shariff Abdullah, has cultivated the ability to hold two ideas simultaneously – the ideal and the real deal – and use the dynamic tension between the two to help us get from the urgent crisis to the emergent opportunity. He uses the same analogy Bruce Lipton and I use in “Spontaneous Evolution” – the metamorphosis from caterpillar to butterfly – to characterize our current predicament.More intriguing – maybe trying to get from “here to there” keeps us crawling like a caterpillar along the same linear pathways that got us where we are. Instead says Shariff, we need to work backward from “butterfly” so that we figure out how to get from THERE to HERE.Shariff Abdullah, J.D., is a consultant, speaker, author and advocate for societal transformation. His mission is to bring currently dysfunctional systems and structures into alignment with our common human and spiritual values, to create a world that works for all living things. Shariff consults with people and organizations on the leading edge of change, including government agencies, businesses and social service organizations.As Director of Commonway Institute, he has visited over 43 countries and over 100 distinct cultures, giving him a unique perspective on our global human and spiritual issues, and a vision that spans culture and class. He has proven experience in working with all peoples and in many different situations, bringing harmony in conditions of actual or potential conflict and discord.His books on leadership and societal change include the award-winning Creating a World That Works for All, and Seven Seeds for a New Society. He also will be talking about his latest work, The Chronicles of the Upheavals, a fictional book that does indeed track us back from there to here.If you’re ready to shift your perspective from fear-based emergency to love-based “emerge ‘n see”, join us this Tuesday, May 26th 2-3 pm PT / 5-6 pm ET. http://omtimes.com/iom/shows/wiki-politiki-radio-show/To find out more about Shariff Abdullah and the Commonway Institute, please go here: https://commonway.org/Visit the Wiki Politiki Show page https://omtimes.com/iom/shows/wiki-politiki-radio-show/Connect with Steve Bhaerman at https://wakeuplaughing.com/#ShariffAbdullah #COVID-19Crisis #COVID-19 #SteveBhaerman #WikiPolitiki

Aired Tuesday, 17 July 2018, 5:00 PM ESTCommon Ground in the Age of Trump – From Resistance to Pro-activismA Conversation with Author and Activist Shariff Abdullah“There are no sides, only angles. And when we see it from the right angle, we are all on the same side.” — Swami BeyondanandaAt a time when resistance seems “irresistible” and Trumpism and anti-Trumpism have dominated the conversation, is there a way to create a proactive, unifying vision and a movement that activates and accelerates that vision?Our guest this week, Shariff Abdullah, says yes, there is. And that pathway is a world designed to work for all.Shariff knows all about conflict and gang rivalry… he grew up in a rough neighborhood in Camden, New Jersey where teenagers who would have been best off working together for the betterment of all joined gangs that fought one another. Out of this potentially “down-bringing” upbringing, Shariff got his law degree, and has spent the better part of his lifetime working on behalf of mutual understanding, inclusivity and turning the ideal of “oneness” into the real deal of creating systems and situations where we can indeed create a world that works for all beings.As an author, Shariff has written several paradigm-shifting books, including: The Power of One: Authentic Leadership in Turbulent Times; Creating a World That Works for All; Seven Seeds for a New Society; Practicing Inclusivity; and The Chronicles of the Upheavals.In this week’s conversation, we will discuss a proactive rather than reactive way to trump Trumpism by stepping off the battlefield and “daring” to speak, stand for, and work for what we all know is possible. We’ll address those classic questions, “what’s so, so what and now what?” as we learn some key distinctions between reactive activism and “proactivism” where we design a new game, rather than playing by the rules of a fixed game.For Shariff’s ideas for what won’t work, watch this: https://youtu.be/hhWgIxSzK4cFor his ideas about what will, watch this video: https://youtu.be/qTy8RJLv3J0Shariff Abdullah can be found at: http://shariff.commonway.org/If you’re wondering how we can not only “take our country back” but take it forward, please tune in this Tuesday, July 10th at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET: http://omtimes.com/iom/shows/wiki-politiki-radio-show/Or, find us on the Wiki archives on Wednesday: http://wikipolitiki.com/archives/How you can support Wiki PolitikiIf you LOVE what you hear, and appreciate the mission of Wiki Politiki, "put your money where your mouse is" ...

We are a small, organic family farm in the Siskiyou Mountains of SW Oregon; situated at 2,000 feet elevation on a 7,000 tall-forested mountain with rushing spring fed creeks flowing through the land and nestled among old growth forests. Here we produce fruits, vegetables, seeds, herbs, wool, eggs, and lamb. The farm has been designed to function as a self-contained, life regenerating organism with waste products being recycled and feeding other elements of the system. Lauded as one of the best examples of a small productive Biodynamic and Permaculture farms in the northwest by many, Seven Seeds helps to mentor new farmers through internships and workshops. We have produced certified organic vegetable, flower and herb seeds for over a dozen national scale seed companies. Seven Seeds has also been active in USDA Western SARE, Organic Seed Alliance and other seed initiatives to advance the development of open pollinated organic seeds. In 2009 we began Siskiyou Seeds, a bioregional organic seed company operated from the home farm. Don helped to found the Siskiyou Sustainable Cooperative, which manages a 300 share CSA, commercial seed growing, and an equipment co-op and internship curriculum among 12 cooperating farms. He also co-founded the Family Farmers Seed Cooperative, a seed grower, marketing and distribution cooperative comprised of 10 western organic farms. More recently we created the Southern Oregon Seed Growers Association (SOSGA) to advocate for and support a bioregional seed system. With this group and Our Family Farms Collective (OFFC) and Oregonians for Safe Food & Families (OSSF) we successfully banned the growing of GMO crop in Jackson & Josephine Counties. Don helps people focus upon helping people build their skill sets in sustainable life skills such as permaculture, biodynamics, organic gardening, eco-forestry, seed saving and other traditional arts that help to build regenerative culture.

She also discusses days to harvest and other gardening tips, soil temperature, germination, and more.

I remember my days working for Australia's biggest travel agent - I absolutely dreaded wearing their corporate uniform. I felt like such a dag. Polyester shirt, navy slacks. In fact, I think the tie was even on a bit of elastic! Where was today's guest when I needed her?! She runs a very disruptive uniform business - that even Hollywood star Gwyneth Paltrow loves! Her name is Felicity Rogers and she started Cargo Crew. I met her a couple of months ago at the Telstra Business Awards where I was the emcee. In fact, the year before, Cargo Crew actually won the National Small Business Award! So, what's Cargo Crew. Well, as Felicity says “She's building a brand that crews (that's her funky word for workers) around the world love to wear”.  She goes on to say “Cargo Crew creates original, design led uniforms that enhance and compliment a business' visual identity and brand language.” Cargo Crew now exports to over 30 countries with 12,000 crews around the world wearing their uniforms. Their clients include Renault, Hoyts & Freedom Furniture, artisan coffee roasters Seven Seeds and even Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop skin care business.  Felicity shares: The power of a good corporate uniform Why your  business's visual language is important How she got a massive international contract by advertising in a little magazine How Gwyneth Paltrow came to wearing a Cargo Crew apron Plus we talk pricing, photography, retail vs online and plenty more BTW, during the interview, Felicity forgot to tell us about another big win, which I'll share with you after the interview.  Plus I have some feedback from a listener who's been inspired to create a podcast herself. And we revisit a past episode in which Australia's voice of online retail shares some gold. Yep, another big epsidoe of your favourite Marketing podcast, so let's get stuck right in.   EPISODE TIMELINE 00:00  Two marketing insights 00:44  Episode teaser 01:24  Welcome & overview 02:41  Today's guest introduction - Felicity Rogers of Cargo Crew 03:57  Today's guest introduction - Felicity Rogers of Cargo Crew 05:54  Interview with Felicity Rogers of Cargo Crew 43:37  Insights into DesignCrowd & WebCentral 45:45  My Top 3 Attention Grabbers from my chat with Felicity Rogers of Cargo Crew 48:19  Listener feedback 49:44  Wrap-up and an insight in to both a past guest & next week's guest   RESOURCES & LINKS MENTIONED Create Freedom Through Outsourcing Tour #3 The Cargo Crew story Interview with online retailing guru Paul Greenberg The Direct Selling Podcast   MY TOP 3 ATTENTION GRABBERS Briefing. Become proficient in how you brief creative people. I think many small business owners undervalue creativity, as it's often hard to measure its ROI. However, when you have a logo you love, or a corporate uniform that people constantly comment on, or a website that really pops, then you'll understand the power of great design. If you want to understand the breifing process more, then join the Small Business Big Marketing Forum and I'd be happy to help you out. The Crew Review. I do love an old school marketing idea. And I particularly love the fact that Felicity had her team identify key industries and the key players within them, and mail them directly. This is a great job to outsource to a VA. Easy and simplicity. Everything about the Cargo Crew brand smells of ease and simplicity. Easy to buy products. A simple website to find your way around. An easy return policy. The key here is to remove as many blockages as you can to make it easy for people to buy from you.   EPISODE SPONSORS WebCentral - Exclusive listener offers Get your online marketing sorted with these exclusive listener offers.

Talor Browne’s “Coffee, I love you but you’re bringing me down” brings the topic of coffee professionals’ physical and mental health directly to the forefront of our discussions about the future and sustainability of the coffee industry. Despite the fact that there is a general agreement that there are important things to consider, the unwieldy and multifaceted nature of the topic—difficult to discuss generally, let alone in an actionable way—has tended to stifle the conversation and left it at the periphery.  Talor’s CoLab: Antwerp presentation is a call for us to re-open the discussion, no matter how uncomfortable or difficult it might be, and to talk about the health of our people: there is “no one-size fits all” answer, we’ll all need to pitch in to find solutions to a problem that will impact the growth and maturity of our industry moving forwards.  The overwhelming response to both Talor’s initial survey and subsequent presentation in Antwerp highlighted how important it is to have this conversation, so we’ve helped to facilitate the continuation of the conversation online: share your thoughts, join the discussion, and view the survey results at COFFEE, I LOVE YOU BUT YOU’RE BRINGING ME DOWN.   -- Talor Browne cut her teeth in the early days of what is now the heaving behemoth of the Melbourne specialty coffee scene. Fortunate enough to have worked with Mark Dundon from St.Ali to Brother Budan and Seven Seeds, then on to Market Lane and just about every other notable bar in the city. In 2012, Paris beckoned and she left her old life behind to team up with Coutume. That partnership was short lived when she was offered a barista position in Oslo. Not long after, she was promoted to head roaster. After 13 years working for people she admires, Talor is now in the process of building a very different kind of coffee roastery in Norway. She also happens to be a great cook.

With Lisa Er, Standing in for Tim Lynch in Mobilising ConsciousnessIT IS TIME for us to do more than just talk about problems or propose band-aid solutions.IT IS TIME for us to stop addressing the symptoms that impede healthy, dynamic, sustainable, equitable, loving connections.It is time for us to get serious about the transformation of our systems and cultures.If we do not do this, our impeding patterns will keep us all locked in place.Increasingly, people, communities, organisations and even political systems are becoming aware of the need to build connection to each other and to the greater whole to address the issues and crises we are facing today.Paradoxically, while many are becoming more aware, they are also stuck in systems and structures that are dysfunctional, toxic and stressful creating mistrust, alienation and frustration. These negative patterns develop and spread, making it very difficult to affect positive change.Sharif Abdullah visited New Zealand on his last stop of a global journey to examine the ancient roots of sacred civilization in search of the keys for creating a world that works for all living beings. In response to the fact that we are collectively killing the planet he says, “The revolution is in CONSCIOUSNESS.  Once you change your consciousness from Breaker to Mender, your actions will change. Trying to change behaviour, without changing the underlying consciousness that causes the behaviour, has always failed to achieve lasting change”.Sharif Abdullah, J.D., is a consultant, speaker, author and advocate for societal transformation. His mission is to bring currently dysfunctional systems and structures into alignment with our common human and spiritual values, to create a world that works for all living things.He describes the principles of inclusivity in his books The Power of One: Authentic Leadership in Turbulent Times, the award-winning Creating a World That Works for All, and the visionary Seven Seeds for a New Society.Often at the invitation of government, business and religious leaders, Sharif has worked with people from over 100 different cultures in over 30 countries on 5 continents. He has received international recognition for his ground-breaking work including the Martin Luther King Lifetime Achievement Award (US), Sarvodaya Vishvamitra/ Universal Friend Award (Sri Lanka) and the Hero of Humanity Award (India).The Commonway Venture, founded by Sharif and Leslie Hamilton, provides individual, group and organisational development to move beyond traditional pathways to unleash engagement, diversity and resilience.For more information: http://www.commonway.orgorhttp://sharif.commonway.orgThis programme is sponsored by:  http://www.theawarenessparty.com
