Episode Synopsis

Having a purpose, a vision alone is not enough to be successful, both require action. Without action, vision is nothing more than a dream.
The key to success is to stay focused on your vision and to be realistic about your current situation. And that can be a challenge.
We have opened this season - starting with square one –“the change” and how we are perceiving it with a special guest - Dan Podjed, PhD, an anthropologist dedicated to developing ethnography-based IT solutions and innovative research methods at the intersection of different scientific fields. He is a Research Fellow at the Research Centre Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Associate Professor at the University of Ljubljana's Faculty of Arts, and Senior Research Advisor at the Institute for Innovation and Development of the University of Ljubljana. The topic of our discussion was focused on whether technology is making us more or less human?
Dan shared with us how we have forgotten to stay human during this transformation, his concerns with technology dependence and how can we regain the balance between on and off. You are most welcome to listen.
