In this Abeceder Quotation Conversation Michael Millward and Mikael Andehn, Director of Collaborative Programs at Royal Holloway University of London, discuss a quotation from media entrepreneur Oprah Winfrey about how we can create a new future. “Step out of the history that is holding you back. Step into the new story you are willing to create.”
Michael and Mikael explore how people find ways to reinforce their vision of the person they want to be and what this might mean for employers.
