Jim Channon is most notably remembered for creating the First Earth Battalion manual. Many of the ideas contained in this and the outcomes of putting such concepts into practice have been documented by journalist Jon Ronson in his book The Men Who Stare at Goats.
Jim calls himself a global strategic designer, who believes cultural intelligence should drive the train not just another economic model. He believes we are at an unavoidable redesign moment for planet earth, that we should thank the toolmakers of the industrial age for their beautiful global communications and transportation matrix and now get on with planting the final layers of planet earth ...the garden. For this, we need social architects instead of industrial minds.
