Description
Katherine Trebeck presented at the RCS Convergence Conference last July and her compelling session there and this interview centres around the economies of the world, their often misguided methods of measurement and indicators of 'success', and introduces the principles of the 'wellbeing economy', focusing on more human and community-centric measures of success and prosperity.
