Explore the wisdom, humor, and focus of strategic change-making with Shaun Floerke. As a judge, he shaped innovative specialty courts and programs fostering family unity within the legal system, but at the helm of the Duluth Superior Area Community Foundation, he has shaped a proactive, compassionate outreach, highlighting the power of collective action and shared purpose.
Forget the status quo, for Shaun it's about revolutionizing how we approach social issues, listening to the unheard voices, and constructing a mosaic of expertise to create lasting solutions.
He candidly discusses the need to balance action with reflection, committing to self-care as a way to re-charge, and for him, it’s biking to and from work every day in Duluth.
He closes with a contemplation on the transition from being a warrior in one's youth to becoming an elder who supports others, recognizing the value of passing the torch to future leaders.
