‘Anthro-Vision’: A Conversation with Gillian Tett
Gillian Tett joined ReD for a live talk about her new book ‘Anthro-Vision - A New Way to See in Business and Life.’ Hosted by Millie Arora & Martin Gronemann.
“[the pandemic presented us with] a much higher demand for the kind of work we do, which I think initially surprised us. But maybe part of the explanation is also what you touch upon, that people have had an embodied sense that you can't probably take human behavior or culture for granted in the same way you used to, and maybe because it has affected all of our lives, that kind of move from like the intellectual, wary of perceiving it through chance to, like, actually lived, experienced by experiment.”

Conversations on leadership with Financial Times editor and author Gillian Tett
Gillian’s new book ‘Anthro-Vision’ makes a strong case for the study of human culture as a tool for companies to make sense of the world. For the past 15 years, ReD has created original strategies with business leaders, and Gillian stopped by our office to talk to Sandra Cariglio, Charlotte Vangsgaard & Mikkel Krenchel, about the aspects of deep cultural understanding as a critical tool when making strategic decisions - for business leaders, and for the field of human science in business decision making.
