Future Foreword
Future Foreword — In the midst of Covid, many us were craving connection, change, and a new way of learning to lead through transitional times. There was a desire to understand the interconnectedness of our industry deeply, with trusted peers, through cross-disciplinary knowledge sharing and storytelling. Future Foreword was platform to do so. I developed and facilitated a series of structured, on-going dialogue that united a small group of cross-disciplinary perspectives to build mutual trust, become curious together, and engage in collective transformational learning. Members were rising leaders in design, materials science, branding, communication and marketing, manufacturing, labor and environmental activism, and other key areas crucial to driving systemic change in the apparel and textile industry.

Future Foreword is an experiment in negotiating holistic transitional change in the apparel and textile industry.
We believe that a prerequisite for navigating during transitional times is a new mindset -- followed by evolved capabilities that are crafted by sharing cross-disciplinary perspectives, strengthened by our mutual understanding and human connection.
Through structured on going dialogue, we map our multi-layered perspectives across the industry ecosystem to create pro-purpose relationships in order to lead holistic transitional change.
