Strategic thinking can grow both vegetables and companies.

Even someone in our most intimate circle can still surprise us when we get them to

share their life stories with us. In this episode, Stephen’s life partner, Karin, explains

how from her earliest memories, she was drawn to nature and that no matter how

exhilarating her myriad challenges in organic farming, running a health-oriented

NGO or doing strategy and management consulting around the globe, she still

recharges her energy by time in the garden or walking in the Jura with her English

setter (and sometimes with Stephen, too).

She shares her early experience at the UN, the independence she may have been

forced to develop at a very early age but which helped her keep her priorities clear

as a parent and a professional and underlines the importance of staying healthy

mentally and physically in order to commit to working in line with one’s personal

values. Along the way, she took two Irish setters to Stanford, helped a ball bearing

factory ready itself to make the transition from Soviet central planning to Western

investor-driven capitalism, and funded mother-child health initiatives in Eastern

Europe and Africa. She has spent much of her career working with different entities

in the UN system on governance, communication, fundraising and strategy, and this

mission continues today.

Let us know what you think about her career story, and share your thoughts on future

episodes, too: absence_of_ego@sustainable-outreach.com
