Slowing Down to Speed Up: Rehumanizing Work Through Facilitation
With Tzu-Yao (Jerry) LIN
In a world racing toward optimization and automation, what does it mean to slow down — not as an escape, but as a path to deeper connection, clarity, and meaningful transformation?
In this episode of Bennu Podcast, we sit down with Tzu-Yao (Jerry) Lin, a multilingual organizational anthropologist and facilitator, whose work bridges global corporations, creative education, and community-based innovation. Co-hosted by Alex Baker-Friesen and Ben M. Najafi, this conversation explores:
- Why slowing down is essential to avoid burnout and foster collective intelligence
- How Jerry uses check-in questions and facilitation to humanize organizational dynamics
- The hidden limitations of top-down training in global companies
- How anthropology and futures thinking together unlock new pathways for systems change
- The importance of “hosting ourselves” before hosting others
This is not just a conversation about work — it’s a reflection on how we relate to each other, how we hold space in complexity, and how to navigate change with curiosity and care.
