    Limitless Belief: Minnie Moll

    This week we’re joined by Minnie Moll, CEO of the Design Council, who shares stories that shaped her belief in pushing beyond what many think is possible. From growing up on a boat in the English countryside, Minnie’s deep love of nature and animals fuelled a childhood full of adventure and curiosity, always bringing other children along for the ride. She speaks with real pride about creating the Design Council’s Design for Planet mission, launched at COP26 in Glasgow. Built on faith that it was the right thing to do, even without all the answers in place. What some might have seen as naïve, Minnie sees as building in flight, with early implementers shaping something bigger. A powerful example of cathedral thinking in action. We also talk about staying the course, even as climate commitments slip around the world. For Minnie, this isn’t just strategy. It’s a moral imperative and a huge opportunity for growth. As both CEO and coach, Minnie reframes naivety as limitless belief in what’s possible. A refusal to be constrained by barriers. A trust that transformation and a better world can be created. Minnie Moll, Chief Executive, Design Council  Minnie spearheads the Design for Planet mission to help address the climate crisis.     She was previously Chief Executive of Jarrold Retail in Norwich, Joint Chief Executive of the East of England Co-op and held senior leadership roles at Notcutts Garden Centres,?What If!, and HHCL.   She was Vistage Business Leader of the Year in 2020 and an Ambassador for Responsible Business in the East of England in 2016. She is currently an Ambassador for the charity Fresh Start and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Arts from the University of Westminster in 2024 for her contributions to design and innovation.  Subscribe for more stories and practical tools from Reboot the Future. www.rebootthefuture.org

    Love at the Centre: Gareth Jenkins

    Seasoned creative, entrepreneur, and advocate for a regenerative future, Gareth Jenkins joins Let’s Reboot the Future to share how life experiences, from encounters with racism to time spent at Plum Village, gently chipped away at his childhood naivety and led him back to something deeper: a belief that the future doesn’t have to be a continuation of the way things are today, and that we can remake it with kindness, fairness, and love at its centre. Gareth reflects on how waking up to the harshness of the world can create both emptiness and a longing to learn new ways of living and seeing, ways that move beyond fear, protection, and the masks we build, and instead reconnect us to what it means to be human. He shares why he believes emotional intelligence, time in nature, and immersive experiences offer powerful guidance for shaping a better future, not through data and models alone, but through emotions, connection, and the stories that remind us what truly matters. This is a hopeful story about responsibility, creativity, and the courage to believe that a kinder world is possible. Gareth Jenkins is currently Global Head of Storytelling at EY, working with the firm’s senior leadership to craft human-centric narratives across sustainability, technology and geopolitics. His work aims to inspire EY’s people and clients that a better tomorrow is possible, and that those of us in business have a role and responsibility to make it a reality.  Here he speaks to us in his personal capacity as a storyteller and creative.

    Think about the world in a different way: Marie Klimis

    Writer, theatre maker and producer specialising in immersive and site specific performance, Marie Klimis joins Let’s Reboot the Future to share her stories and reflect on how she has learned, and helped others, to think about the world in a different way. Marie reflects on learning early in life that rules need to be questioned, and that being kind, being a good person, and not betraying anyone’s trust sit powerfully at the heart of how we should live, even when this runs against what we are told. Moving from a background in business into socially engaged, political immersive theatre and site specific performance, Marie describes creating environments outside of traditional theatre spaces. Spaces centred on empathy, and on building together a more inclusive and more multicultural view of the world. She shares why using play and fiction to get people to think about important things is so powerful, and reflects on her first family show, Checkpoint Universe, created as a way to spark better narratives around migration. This episode is rooted in imagination, empathy, and a belief that small actions can be just as life changing as large ones. Marie is the Artistic Director of Koro, a charity dedicated to immersive theatre that celebrates urgent contemporary stories and marginalised voices, also a founding member and director of 27 degrees, a migrant-led collective creating socially engaged immersive theatre.
