Futures & Sustainability exis ts to explore what's developing at the edges of sustainability in our econ omy and our society, the shifts that haven't made it into the mainstream c onversation yet, but will.

Join us this time to explore: What i f the way we run our organizations is the key to a different future?< /p>

Governance doesn't have the best reputation. It sounds like a word f or meetings, not for ideas. But the way you run your company or organizati on says a lot about you and what you are actually trying to achieve. Do we have the right organizational models in place today? What else might ther e be?

This event is about governance inside organizations. It looks at how companies, institutions, and teams make decisions, structure owners hip, and set direction, and asks whether those structures still make sense for the world we're actually in.

Some questions we will exp lore:

- What does it mean for nature to h ave a voice in decision making?

- How do we create organizations that are more resilient and robust? These are the questions at the center of this session.

This is not a night of talks to sit through. Expect a room built for exchange, where you engage directly with the speakers and with each other, and leave having connected with people t hinking about the same questions.

This event brings together people rethinking governance from different angles:

•⁠ ⁠Alexandra Pimor (Earth Law Center, Paris) is a voi ce for nature quite literally. She is Director of Nature Governance at the Earth Law Center and served as the proxy representing Nature on the board of Faith in Nature, the first company in Europe to grant Nature a vote at board level. Alexandra works at the intersection of law and ecology and e xplores what changes inside an organization when nature is treated as a re al stakeholder, not just a resource to manage.

•⁠ ⁠Bonne Rei jn (Bonne Suits, Amsterdam) founded his Amsterdam label in 2014 around a single product: a seasonless, genderless suit made to be worn for years rather than a season. As an entrepreneur, he is focused on keeping Amsterdam's social fabric diverse through small businesses that cr eate culture and community. Bonne speaks to the governance choices that ke ep a young, independent company accountable to more than its bottom line.< /p>

•⁠ ⁠Erik Korsvik Østergaard (Good Morning April , Copenhagen), Futurist and Author of Anticipatory Leadership, joins as an active collaborator on this session, not just a speaker. He co-founded Good Morning April, a consultancy that helps leaders design or ganizations for the future of work. Erik will explore how we can create ne w forms of governance and what capabilities organizations need to anticipa te rather than react, and what it takes to build that into how they're act ually run.

Together, we'll open up what new organizational structure s could look like, and what capabilities leadership needs to build them. < a href="https://www.futuresandsustainability.com/events" target="_blank">C heck out our previous Tolhuistuin events and join us for this interact ive session.

Doors open at 6.15 pm.

The evening runs from 6. 30pm to 9.45pm, followed by drinks in the Zonzij.
