Mike interviews Geoff Mulgan.
Today, we’ve got a treat for you. Strap in because we’re diving deep into the world of innovation, resilience, and the boundless power of imagination with the brilliant Geoff Mulgan, author of the groundbreaking book When Science Meets Power.
This conversation was nothing short of electrifying. Geoff delved into some seriously eye-opening topics, and I couldn’t wait to share the highlights with all of you.
We discussed the importance of asking for help. Geoff hit the nail on the head when he emphasized that asking for help is perhaps the most crucial skill anyone can possess. In a world where self-sufficiency is often glorified, Geoff reminded us that seeking guidance and support is not a sign of weakness but a testament to our humility and willingness to learn.
Speaking of learning, Geoff shed some severe wisdom about the power of resilience. He stressed that persistence is the key to success, and while some may argue that it’s a trait you either have or don’t, Geoff believes that resilience can be cultivated through life experiences and a willingness to adapt.
But here’s where things got really juicy. Geoff dove into the age-old debate of politics versus entrepreneurship. We are about empowering entrepreneurs to chase their dreams and change the world. But Geoff challenged us to consider the role of government in driving meaningful change, especially in times of crisis like the recent pandemic.
Entrepreneurs like Elon Musk may capture our imagination and inspire us with their vision. Still, Geoff reminded us that governments play a crucial role in shaping our world, from developing vaccines to providing essential support during challenging times.
Geoff didn’t hold back when he called out the dangers of money polluting politics, a sentiment we couldn’t agree more about. Whether it’s career politicians lining their pockets or billionaires buying influence, Geoff urged us to question the status quo and demand better from our leaders.
But amidst all the challenges and complexities of our world, Geoff left us with a glimmer of hope—the power of imagination. His book “When Science Meets Power” challenges us to think beyond the constraints of the present and imagine a future where anything is possible. And folks, that’s a message We can get behind one hundred percent. As an entrepreneur, authors, and dreamers, We’ve always believed in the power of imagination to shape our reality. So, let’s take Geoff’s words to heart and dare to dream bigger, aim higher, and change the world one bold idea at a time.
