The Healthy Power Alliance Podcast

On the Healthy Power Alliance podcast, we’re exploring what it means to be powerful together, and how human power – particularly the power to thrive in organisations and communities – can benefit other humans and the planet we depend on. We speak with the people who are already doing it, the people who know how to do it, and the people who are doing the in-depth academic studies of what really works (and doesn’t).

Healthy Power Alliance

Every problem we have is a problem with human power. 

We are an alliance birthing a future in which healthy power is the norm in most organisations and communities worldwide.

What is healthy power?  Growing my happiness and influence in a way that helps others grow theirs, and that is good for the planet we all depend on.

We know we don’t have all the answers. So we're bringing people together to co-create this Alliance.

This podcast is part of that work. We're interviewing people who are already doing it, who have ideas about how to do it, and academics studying what works (and what doesn't).

If you'd like to know more please get in touch. You can contact the Healthy Power Alliance via A Fairer Society at afairersociety.com/contact-a-fairer-society/ (for now).
