Hospitality Mavericks Podcast

Our society has an obsession with growth, quite often neglecting the need to thrive. In today’s episode, we unpack a meaty but highly relevant book – ‘Doughnut Economics: Seven Ways to Think Like a 21st-Century Economist’ by Kate Raworth, to learn more about how we can fundamentally reframe our understanding of what economics is and does. Along the way, she points out how we can break our addiction to growth; redesign money, finance, and business to be in service to people; and create economies that are regenerative and distributive by design.Tune in as we pick our favourite myths that Kate Raworth dispels in the book, like the rational man and linear growth, and we reflect over some key questions to ask yourself, your team and in the boardroom. It’s time to think about building a better economy; we simply can’t ignore equality or sustainability. We hope you enjoy this conversation as we explore how we can all follow a human-centred approach to thriving.Resources mentioned:‘Doughnut Economics’ by Kate Raworth
