- **Event Description**: The Shepherd &amp; The Steward — From Human Doing to Life-Centered BeingAbout this EventInnovation has become a reflex. A KPI. A growth strategy. Yet while innovation accelerated, ecosystems destabilised and inequality deepened.So perhaps the problem is not that we innovate too little, but that we innovate from the wrong premise. What if its value depends entirely on whether it regenerates or depletes the living systems we are part of?At this Meetup, we talk about the assumption that innovation is always good and explore how to manage the flock.Featuring:Walter Baets — Wicked Problems Officer at Eindhoven Engine &amp; part-time shepherdChiara Treglia — Regenerative design steward &amp; culture transformation expertAt this Meetup We explore what happens when innovation becomes an act of care rather than extraction.Expect:Bold ideasHonest dialogueChallenging questionsA room full of people who care about systemic changeBecause the shift is not about controlling the flock, but learning how to move with it.Can we cut the crap — and make innovation regenerative?@ Kazerne Downtown EindhovenWalk in 17:30, Start 18:00English spoken, Free entrance, Open to AllSpecial Guests  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/5068a470-1971-11f1-8747-1187d79d3166-rimg-w1110-h740-dcd6d3c7-gmir.jpg Chiara TregliaRegenerative Design Practitioner | Learning &amp; Development Expert | Coach | Steward operates at the intersection of regenerative design, learning and organizational transformation. Through her practice tini studio as ICF-accredited (ACC) coach, she supports organisations in cultivating cultures rooted in responsibility, shared meaning and long-term thinking.Trained as a design engineer at TU Eindhoven, she later completed a Global Innovation Design MSc/MA at the Royal College of Art and Imperial College London. Her trajectory reflects a shift from designing products to designing conditions — from problem-solving to culture-shaping.As Learning &amp; Development expert at TU/e Innovation Space and Chair of Stichting SPEN (Sustainability Professionals Eindhoven Network), she works across ecosystems, connecting internationals and locals around social and environmental sustainability.Chiara challenges the assumption that design is neutral. She argues that design is always political, always relational, and always shaping culture — whether intentionally or not.“Design is not a tool to fix the world. It is a practice that shapes how we relate to the world and to each other over time.”  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/50a5fb90-1971-11f1-9467-2923091d78de-rimg-w1110-h740-dc605f5f-gmir.jpg Walter BaetsWicked Problems Officer at Eindhoven Engine | Professor Emeritus | Shepherd is Professor Emeritus at the University of Cape Town and currently Wicked Problems Officer at Eindhoven Engine. Internationally recognised for his work on complexity and the quantum interpretation of innovation and transformation, he has built an academic career across seven countries, bridging econometrics, strategy, leadership and systemic change.Former Dean of the Graduate School of Business at the University of Cape Town and Allan Gray Chair in Values-Based Leadership, Walter has long explored how organisations learn and transform under conditions of uncertainty.In parallel, he is a part-time shepherd. Participating in transhumance — walking 230 km with sheep across France — reshaped his understanding of innovation, belonging, and leadership. Living inside a moving ecosystem, he experienced what entanglement means in practice. Immersed in the here and now, he discovered the power of authenticity — and how creativity and innovation are born in the silence between thoughts.His motto: Love your problem, not your solution.“Innovation is not about imposing order. It is about sensing patterns in the living system you are already part of.”Need more context? Take a look at .Be part of the conversation. Come curious.
