Welcome to this new episode of ebbf's #DiscoveringHOW serie, the show where we dive deep into the minds of experts, innovators, and those on the front lines of shaping a better world. Today, we're thrilled to have a truly remarkable guest with us—Shamir Rajadurai. Shamir is an expert in combating crime, but his approach is anything but conventional. With a unique blend of values, unyielding curiosity, and more than a touch of daring, Shamir has dedicated his life to understanding the inner workings of criminal behavior.
In this episode, we'll explore how Shamir's unconventional methods—getting to know criminals and dissecting the roots of crime—are paving the way for a safer and more just society. From infiltrating criminal networks to his profound belief in the power of values, Shamir's insights promise to challenge the way we think about crime prevention and justice.
So, if you are curious about the forces shaping our world, you're in for an eye-opening conversation. Let's dive in!

Today, we’re discovering more about design processes that enact social and organizational transformation. Stephanie Akkaoui-Hughes utilizes her work as an architect to promote a variety of ongoing and adaptable human interactions. She practices architecture in a way that promotes social transformation by deliberately creating incompleteness, impermanence and imperfection to invite collaborative participation of people. The design process she uses can be adapted to create anything transformative.
But first, Jelena Hercberga is a Ph.D. researcher at the University of Bristol in the UK. Her work focuses on perceptions of difference contributing to the larger question of how society can organize itself to embrace ongoing encounters with difference. She says an organization or individual doesn’t gain self understanding only by knowing oneself. Rather, the greatest self knowledge comes from deliberately interacting with those who are different than we are in some way. She also believes that goals like justice or diversity must be redefined as we progress and are never fully completed.

In this episode we discover key decisions one should address when you are about to make a career change.Two ebbf members also share the struggles and how they lived through their personal career transitions in their professional and personal life.Enrico Giraudi made the shift from a career working for marketing goals of mutlinationals to working for the wellbeing of people. His path from knowing “this is not my place any more” to the fear of moving away from a stable job and one’s fake identity. “The challenge is that you don’t move a step if you don’t know what you are moving towards and one often over estimates one's current status”. What gave his strength was his feeling that "the first steps I took, gave me a sense of happiness and wellbeing worth pursuing”.But first Dr. Graham Boyd has a PhD in theoretical particle physics. In a significant career change he left physics to work for Procter & Gamble and is now the CEO of Evolute Six a network of practitioners that promote work as a strategy for both professional and personal development "changing careers is most complicated than we might think and first coherence with the rest of one’s life”

And, Valerie Arnold poses the question, what biases do we bring to a consultative process and how can we keep them in check?
But first, the term consultation can be confusing. To many people, consultation means the seeking of advice from an expert or to have a discussion about a specialized topic. But consultative processes represents a paradym shift potentially affecting every aspect of society. In this episode we offer universal principles to create a more effective consultative process, inspired by the Writings of the Baha’i Faith. The success of applying these principles is not limited to taking good decisions, but more widely allows us to create fruitful learning experiences that fully engage the diversity of ideas and talents of all people involved.
