Book club

Welcome to Volans’ Book Club where we dive into fresh ideas for the next chapter with our favourite authors.

Each month we read and discuss a book focused on creating positive exponential shifts. Our book club is a space to come together to imagine (and take action for) the future.

We invite authors at the forefront of systems thinking, to discuss their thoughts and writing. Facilitated by our CEO, Louise Kjellerup Roper, the book club live sessions offer members the chance to participate in a Q&A with the author, connect with one another, be inspired, and explore solutions to our most urgent challenges.

The book club is open to anyone interested in driving a better future, especially those working in or entering business and finance.
