It’s a full house in the studio as Jan and Paul welcome Dr Elisavet Christou and Violet Owen to enlighten them on the world of creative evaluation.

They are co-authors of the Little Book of Creative Evaluation, and explain just what Creative Evaluation is, and how it can be used across many disciplines, giving examples of how they have seen it applied.

Elisavet and Violet discuss their EViD tool, which helps people with their evaluation processes; the value of hearing from many different voices, the importance of design, and why evaluation is so much more than a tick-box exercise.

Jan gets to talk benchmarking again. And is Paul right to be worried that the team are secretly being evaluated the whole time?

Linden Edgell – Inquisitor, Collaborator and Explorer extraordinaire – joins Jan and Paul from Perth, Australia, among her 150 mango trees.

Linden is ERM’s Global Sustainability Director and is also a member of the Pentland Centre’s Advisory Board. Trained as a social scientist, Linden has worked in government and latterly in consulting, where she is seeking to bring about change in corporate behaviour.

Linden explains how she works with executives on how they can change their operations and attitudes – from nature restoration to modern slavery – and how it is hard to get people to accept the difficulty of the task.

What changes has she seen over the decades? How do companies balance profit, sustainability and longevity? Can you walk and chew gum?
