In this episode Canan and Laura talk to co/rizom co-founders Alina Serban and Nadja Zerunian about the disappearing of the traditional crafts, what does it mean for our society if artisanship dies out, and what tools co/rizom is developing to support traditional artisans. We get to know the master artisans at the heart of this industry, what fantastic skills they possess, and what challenges they face especially during the pandemic. Our discussion is an invitation to reflect together on our relationship with objects, the value we want to give them, and how they impact humankind’s identity. It is also an invitation to step up and take concrete actions to support this industry. Our guests share what you can do to contribute.
Alina Serban has been living in Vienna since 2004 enjoying the multicultural vibes of the urban space, being involved in theatre and performance projects, participating in the cultural scene of the city and getting inspiration for her work in political equality & participation.
She has been working in philanthropy managing programmes at ERSTE Foundation for 8 years focusing on community development, social entrepreneurship and collaboration with Roma communities in Central and Eastern Europe.
Her love for the aesthetic and the inclusive work-philosophy was the connector to the world of crafts and the motivation behind setting up co/rizom association together with Nadja Zerunian and Andrei Georgescu in 2018

I love to tell stories but am afraid of words.
an obsessive of sorts -
composing & assembling / arranging & rearranging
to showcase excellence
of master artisans I met over the years.
their competence of making things
& the ease to materialize thought
demand to be shared.
preserving crafts & keeping traditions alive
might feel obsolete or seem redundant.
an afterthought. a sentimental notion.
but creating objects
is a fundamental part of human condition
& the beginning of it all.

Inclusion is a conversation. Speak up and play. With Imran Rehman and Shawn Ardaiz - Episode 8
In this episode Canan and Laura talk to Imran Rehman and Shawn Ardaiz about what inclusion means and how it can be a reality beyond checking boxes. We ask what is missing to allow us to create action in order to move forward to build more humane, inclusive environments in which individuals have the space to thrive, in which we feel safe and we belong. We discuss what kind of structures we need to put in place and how can we work together to achieve that. And finally, what concrete actions can we take to move the needle?
Imran is a leadership coach and organisational development and change consultant. Building robust dynamic structures for teams and organisations, so they are ready for the future, is his passion. This is what he has specialised in as a coach, whilst accompanying leaders and teams in various organisations (such as Lufthansa, NASA, hospitals and financial institutions) in over 70 countries. You can connect with Imran at https://www.linkedin.com/in/imranrehman/
Shawn is an innovation expert, entrepreneur and generates regenerative business models. Originally from Silicon Valley, Shawn has been working with
companies and entrepreneurs around the world for more than 15 years to create the conditions for continuous innovation and has served as a consultant to Fortune
500 companies. You can connect with Shawn at
