We Hope

Magazine

The We Hope magazine contains the inspiring and hands-on experience of Agilists and Sustainability Experts who have applied agility to social, economic, and environmental challenges.

We Hope contains two very powerful words. The WE, stands for the need to work on these planetary challenges together. As Agilists, WE understand the power of the collective, the diversified team and what it takes to work on complex gnarly problems.

The Hope is an Active Hope where we actively work on what we hope to achieve. Our greatest hope is that we work on making a difference in our world by collectively leaving it better than it is today.

We Hope: Regenerative Action - June 2025

Inspired by regeneration and these new practices, we aimed for this edition to convey how Agilists and Sustainability Experts are leveraging regeneration. We also sought to examine the Shared Economy by Neal Gorenflo, where resources are democratically shared and owned. Through these articles, we hope to introduce you to new ways of working that are accessible for all of us to learn and make an impact.

We Hope: Leading into the Future - November 2024

Margaret Wheatly’s book “ Who Do We Choose to Be” talks about the leadership we need today:

This world does not need more entrepreneurs.

This world does not need more technological breakthroughs

This world needs leaders.

We need leaders who put service over self, who can be steadfast through crisis, and failures, who want to stay present and make a difference to the people, situations, and causes they care about.

Our contributing authors share the types of leadership we need now to help us lead into the future. The leaders that Margaret Wheatly refers to. Our authors share leadership wisdom from Stoicism, Regenerative Leadership, Complexity Science, U Theory, Experimentation, Generative Listening, Purpose-Driven Leadership, Energy Management, and many more. You can choose your own path and build off of many of these great authors ideas.

We Hope: Activation Energy - May 2024

The title for our magazine contains “hope”. For some, this means dreaming for something to happen, dreaming for that magic job to appear, for that war to end, for that new invention that will save the world and humankind, the government to intervene or something else.

Hope for us, is not only about that dream, but about taking the actions to achieve that dream. The dream is also not of an impossibility, but one that is possible with no clear path on how to get there. No one ever knows a clear path, it is only really seen after you have taken it.

This edition’s theme is activation energy. From Wikipedia, “[...] activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that must be available to reactants for a chemical reaction to occur.”

Our contributing authors share what activation energy moved them to act and what it feels like to be in action.

We Hope - Official Launch!

Our very first magazine was born from the authors themselves. The collective group of early adopters of agile for sustainability: Pia, Jutta, Sabine, Anu, Lyssa, Kubair, Rocio, and Joanne. As a group, we decided to share a collection of stories vs single stories to highlight how we work as a collective. This is where the stories begin. Enjoy!
