Human scale, the podcast

In 7 conversations, Luc Van Gorp maps out a future together with his guests from different domains of our society.

In both healthcare and business, we must find a balance between using our time efficiently and meaningfully, between linear and inner time, between action and reflection. But it is precisely that balance that has been thoroughly disrupted today. During the seminar series 'Time for people in healthcare and economy', Sociopolis discussed with six guest speakers, including CM chairman Luc Van Gorp.
