Hi my name is Darryl. Donut Economics was the first economic book I read and it has had a profound direction of my work. In the last few years I have spent a lot of time reading about ecological economics, wellbeing economics, and the history of economics in the West. It has also influenced my career choices. I am currently coming to co-leading the nationwide Social Action Inquiry Scotland, commissioned by seven philanthropic organisations dedicated to supporting civil society in Scotland. I am keen to share some of this learning as they dovetail into Nurturing Human Nature and Designing to Distribute.

Reorienting life around the climate crisis | Decade of comms experience now offering workshops, mentoring and words. Founder of With Many Roots, UK Co-ordinator of Climate Collage; head up communications at If Not Us Then Who?; and co-ordinates Green New Deal UK Bristol Hub, amongst other climate change related activities. With a decade’s communications experience I professionalised my concern for the climate: the true weight of the problem did not sink in for many years. Whilst slowly creeping towards a more ethical lifestyle, I turned towards activism with fervour after reading the UN’s climate report in October 2018. That report – and letting myself feel it – changed everything. After travelling for 4 years I have returned to the UK to be as useful as I can in the time we’ve got left. My focus is impact. So I offer one-to-one mentoring, group workshops, and a growing writing practice. Holding a safe space for difficult topics.

After having worked for 30 years in and for large and medium-sized companies, both in management and in consultancy, it is time to apply my knowledge and skills for donut economics. I am an experienced marketer, lean six sigma blackbelt, systemic change expert and manager. I have a clear vision of the ingredients needed to get groups 'on' for a different way of thinking and behaviour. and how to embed this into new routines. I was surprised when I discovered that the approach we adopt in our agency is almost 1:1 to the donut economics mindsets. That is why I am changing my own compass and am going to use it for companies and institutions and the city of Rotterdam.
