Hub Guest | Tea with Meg: A conversation about social innovation with Margaret Wheatley | Thursday 12 March, 16.30-18.00

It’s sometimes difficult to hold the space between the "old paradigm" falling apart and nurturing the emergence of the "new". Join us for an intimate conversation with our friend Marga ret Wheatley - international speaker, author, change strategist and poet - where she will share her insights on the role of social change agents in the emerging new and on taking social innovation to scale. Meg has been learning from living systems for many years and applying lessons to understanding how communities come together, and stay together. Read more in her article: http://www.margaretwheatley.com/articles/emergence.html

This event is free to Hub members and €10 for non-members; places are limited, please contact amsterdam.hosts@the-hub.net to book a place.
