How Good Gets Done in the World - Barna Research

 

Today’s episode is about the dynamics of positive change, how U.S. adults perceive the role of non-profits and for-profits in that change, and how leaders can better respond to disruption by understanding the times.


Dave and Carly welcome guest Matt Randerson, VP of Growth & Operations at Barna Group, a research organization that provides data and insights at the intersection of faith and culture. 

As VP of growth, Matt plays a crucial role in collaborating closely with clients and partners to design and execute research projects that address their most pressing questions.

Join the group as they dive deeper into the insights and experiences shared by Matt into a recent study exploring perspectives from U.S. adults on how good happens in the world. 

Exploring the intersection of research, leadership, and the dynamics of faith and culture with impactful insights from Matt and the Barna Group:

  • How trust in and expectations of different types of institutions differ when it comes to doing good, including changes in how people view non-profit and for-profit organizations.

  • How to adapt to disruption and the role of understanding trends in discerning and informing the response.

  • Asking, are you a disruptive leader? “Someone, somewhere is messing with the rules to the prevailing model.”

  • Preparing to embrace new, innovative approaches rather than sticking to incumbent ways.

  • How humility is key to learning from anyone, and a solution for overcoming biases and fostering inclusivity. 


We hope you enjoyed our conversation with Matt!
