Future-readiness is a “relentlessness to fight against the things that prevent you from being able to change.” That’s Dan Gardner's (Executive Chairman and Co-Founder of Code and Theory) hot take on what it means to be future-ready in our recent conversation, where we also got a lot deeper into why discourse and disagreement are key to unlocking creativity, the importance of diverse perspectives and challenging assumptions when envisioning what’s next, and how Code and Theory’s culture of openness and curiosity enables them to be in the business of doing things that don’t exist today. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg! Link to the full episode in the comments. And if you enjoyed it, leave a review and let us know what made the biggest impact!
