What makes our souls sing? Bringing together our beautiful community, of course. Our Salons are not just gatherings: they are opportunities to build deep human connections to create ripples of impact. Our London Salon last Wednesday evening, co-hosted in the home of our Co-Founder & CEO Valerie Keller with CEO Circle member Angela Ahrendts, was a packed house of leaders from around the world—testament to the power of shared wisdom, friendship and collaboration. We witnessed magic unfold as our IMAGINE Leaders shared their updates and progress. Great to have with us Renata Brabander, William Brenn, Christine Gould, Nicola Gryczka Kirsch, Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir, Daniella Helayel, Mark Jankovich, Glenn Mandziuk MEDes. MCIP FRSA, Kim Paykel and Marco Giulietti. A special shoutout to our IMAGINE Leaders, Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir and Christine Gould who shared thought leadership from their recent books. Hrund's book, ‘InnSaei: Heal, revive and reset with the Icelandic art of intuition’, delves into the power of intuition and its role in revitalizing creativity and wonder in one's life. Christine's book, ‘The Change-Maker's Guide to Feeding the Planet: How to Solve Big Problems the Next Gen Way’, outlines six key attitudes—openness, collaboration, a beginner's mind, an entrepreneurial spirit, purpose, and community—that are crucial for developing innovative solutions to global challenges such as hunger and climate change. Also sharing a rousing call to action is Paul Polman, IMAGINE Co-Founder, who passionately urged the room to hold companies across the value chain accountable, emphasizing the crucial need to protect biodiversity as humanity and the planet face the loss of 68% of species over the past 50 years, highlighting our integral role in nature's balance. It was a pleasure to congratulate those who’ve just been accepted to join our upcoming cohort in Oxford, marking the beginning of their journey as IMAGINE Leaders. We were also delighted to meet quite a few candidates nominated to be IMAGINE Leaders. It’s safe to say the evening highlighted the extraordinary potential and collective power of our community with two special announcements shared there. Stay tuned. We’ve got some exciting news brewing... Yossi Goldsmith David Aikman #IMAGINELeaders #impact #community
