Todays guest is Alexandra Alden, an end-to-end all-life centered Strategic Designer that uses the power of empathy to drive impact and value globally for nonprofits, companies and startups. Alex and Julian met during a powerful one week immersion at The Traditional Dreamfactory in the Alentejo in Portugal. The Event was called Re Build, as in re building our world, environment and regenerating life around us, by designing with life and for life. Alex believes: That everything is connected, diversity drives Innovation and Nature knows best.
Our conversation is an exploration of regenerative design for human relationships and team work. When we build and invest into trust, slowing down and the human dynamics in any project we start to magnetize solutions based on the human dynamic. Trust in groups is experienced diversely, often people have different experiences of trust. This process of allowing each and everyone to come alive, come forward and contribute in their own unique ways is part of regenerative design with and for humans, one with nature.
Alex is a multi-faceted Strategic Designer, Acumen fellow, entrepreneur, nature-lover and vivid imaginer, with 7+ years experience leading design processes globally with a focus on driving impact. She understands the power of design to shape the way we see the world and build bonds between us and our planet. Alex has worked across the world with clients ranging from UN Agencies and large NGOs, to businesses and entrepreneurs, to design agencies, to build products, services, brands and programs that drive connection through a deep understanding of people and systems. She holds a BA in Communications and a Master's in Development Practice with a focus on Innovation from UC Berkeley.
