F ROM C RISIS TO P OSSIBILITY What can total collapse teach us about innovating a“golden age�? Two hundred years ago Denmark faced total collapse! On the losing side of major war" the country in tatters" it#s economy in ruin! Having lost land" resources and the talents of all who died in the struggle" the country was bankrupt on every level! Except one! Out of this crisis" a new way of viewing society arose" fundamentally changing the structures of power" privilege and connection! Over the next span of years Denmark as we now know it was created and a golden age was born! Danes like S$ren Kierkegaard" Hans Christian Andersen" Grundtvig and HC %rsted brought their gi&s to the world! Interestingly enough" this founding story is very little known by the Danes themselves" but it holds keys to how we might all face this time of uncertainty and challenge! Join us in a grand experiment of hosted conversation and harvesting of this powerful story to uncover what it might o"er Denmark and the world! This is an invitation to co#create a new paradigm for future growth$ based on collective historic memory!
