After a master's in Human Resources I worked as a Headhunter for the development/ non-profit sector and then worked as an HR Generalist in a for-profit. I witnessed how corporations' focus on profit maximisation, sales, revenue and growth are governed by capitalism and have got nothing to do with social issues, the environment and socio-economic inequalities. It became apparent that ever-increasing production and consumption are considered normal whilst it isn't.  I was inspired to do another masters at UCL in Science Technology and Society which gave me perspective on the role of science and policymaking in bringing material changes in the world. I tried transitioning into social research and projects but had a tough time. I enjoyed reading the work of Mariana Mazzucato, Kate Raworth, Jason Hickel as it resonates with my concerns and answers some of today's pressing problems. While I continue to be a Human Resources professional my mind is occupied with the problems of the 21st Century. I feel everyone on the planet should have the opportunity to contribute to such issues. I'd love to be a part of the DEAL Community and connect with like minds. I hope to learn ways in which professionals across fields could contribute towards maintaining the planetary boundaries in an equitable fashion.
