Listen "#22: The Woman Who Got a Forest Planted for a 22nd-Century Library Can Teach You Something About Listening and Tactical Thinking"
Episode Synopsis
How do you convince top authors to write books that won't be read for 100 years? Or a city to give you the forest to provide the paper for those books? Anne Beate Hovind does all this and more for this and a number of public art projects in her native Norway. It's a role that has her straddling the art and development worlds, working with artists, architects, city officials and even foresters to do the hard work of logistics and long-term planning for a project she won't see live to see completed. She’ll explain how she connects with so many different types of people to make what seems impossible possible -- and the importance of both tactical mindset and faith when it comes to creativity.
