| Interview with Cat Tully, School of International Futures

"No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it."
-- Albert Einstein
|
| This past August, I sat in a room full of people, learning foresight, people who care about the future of humanity and who are actually doing something about it. I felt like I was home.
Since I was 13, I wanted to work on a global scale.
I'd even made a diorama of the United Nations for a school project, with a cardboard box and little figures. I even drew flags. I imagined myself in that room with other people from around the world who cared as much as I did about the future of humanity.
So there I was this past August in a beautiful facility and hotel. I was at the School of International Futures annual retreat. We were learning, discussing, problem solving, and asking questions.
It was amazing.
The School of International Futures is here to help us build better futures for humanity.
They offer foresight trainings, community weaving, and support for a global network of next generation practitioners.
I was on their summer retreat. I got to network with amazing people from around the world, including the founder of the School of International Futures, Cat Tully.
ABOUT CAT TULLY Cat has extensive experience as a practitioner, helping governments, civil society and businesses to be more strategic, more effective, and better prepared for the future.
She's motivated by a focus on social justice and the importance of multi-stakeholder approaches to the challenges of the 21st century world.

I had the great privilege of interviewing Cat during one of our mid-morning breaks outdoors at the beautiful Lainston House hotel in Winchester, England.
Enjoy our interview.
