Kia ora! Chibai! Namaskaram! I am Baruk, and I'm doing my PhD research on [[grow]]ing [[emotional capability]] in [[innovation]] contexts. ([[PhD proposal]] here). This is my digital garden. ([What is a Digital Garden?](https://maggieappleton.com/garden-history)) As [[Tangata Tiriti]] from India ([Mizoram](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mizoram)/[Kerala](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerala)), on Māori land, it makes sense that I take an approach that looks at this through a lens of [[relationality]]. This approach also frames my complexity informed, systems-led design practice. This has been a journey of discovery into my own (emerging) values. Not always easy, and certainly not comfortable - neither emotionally nor intellectually. I currently work with [Whānau Tahi](https://www.whanautahi.com/) and the [CX Collective](https://www.cxcollective.co.nz/), coaching teams to design better. You can find me on [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/feddabonn/), or email [email protected]
