Ep. 8/25/2024 – The Jiggy Jaguar Podcast The Importance of Team Building and its Role in Bridging Polarized Worlds (Guest: Gareth Gwyn)

Recent reports have highlighted the increasing tensions in international relations due to economic competition and divergent political ideologies. This story, which has captured headlines across major news outlets globally, underscores the need for better cooperation, understanding, and communication amongst nations. It’s an urgent reminder of how the skills honed in effective team building can help bridge divides and foster unity.
Joining us now to discuss this matter is Gareth Gwyn, the author of You Are Us: How To Build Bridges In a Polarized World. In this book, she discusses real stories based on candid accounts of stereotypically vilified and victimized individuals, which, in turn, provide insight into uncovering our opportunities for inner change. In addition, Gareth also created Let’s See Labs an enterprise focused on the sociocultural transformation of individuals through a number of interactive means. These include film, writing and team workshops; and with these, people can unlock and uncover what lies at the common heart of leadership.
