In this episode of New World in the Making, I sit down with Nicholas Thomson, founder of Iceberg. Nick spent his career inside high-performance environments, and along the way he started noticing what many of us only feel: that the way we've been running companies is quietly no longer working. Underneath, the old paradigm of command, hierarchy, and control is being outgrown by the world we actually live in. Nick founded Iceberg to help organisations move into what comes next: more conscious, more self-managed, more human.

We talk about:

The real purpose of a company, and the personal why underneath it
Why true stories are more convincing than any theory or book
How culture and profit are not mutually exclusive
The new consciousness slowly emerging in business, and why it is so hard to grow into
What crisis moments are actually here for
What conscious leadership looks like on a Tuesday morning, not just on a slide
And what it takes for an organisation to hold its values when pressure and money enter the room
