Meet the Facilitators

  • Scott Goldner – Programme lead

Scott has experience building, developing and leading organizations, learning institutions, and programs at various phases of development – conceptual, start-up, local growth, national scaling, international scaling and improvement/turnaround. Developing people and teams and building community have always been at the heart of the programs that Scott has helped to design and has been a key part of his work with his own team responsible for delivering these programs. 

Additionally, Scott has always enjoyed coaching others to find both impact and balance in their lives and work. After his previous role as interim-CEO / Chief Educational Program Officer at Kiron Open Higher Education, Scott realized that this is what he wants to do most – to help others to do more purposeful, impactful work and to enable them to help and learn from each other. The DO is an excellent home for Scott because it enables him to work with multiple partners and scores of participants – maximizing their learning and experience, as well his own and that of his team. The DO’s mission and vision fit so well with how Scott approaches his work – seeing purposeful DOing as the best way to work and community and movement-building as the only way for us to truly transform into a more purposeful economy and to together solve our most pressing challenges. He is thrilled to continue his journey at The DO – helping partners and participants to foster change and have positive impact through their ventures, teams, and organizations and as both individuals and part of a larger community of purposeful DOing.

 

  • Eva Vander Giessen - Programme Manager

Eva supports The DO School’s impact entrepreneurs working on environmental and social justice, and connects them with a global community of purposeful DOers. Her background is in designing and facilitating workshops and incubators for entrepreneurs and artists to drive social change in the communities they know best. She leads the UN Women‘s Industry Disruptor, a collaboration between UN Women and The DO, to tackle the fashion & lifestyle industry‘s pressing equity and sustainability issues with hundreds of entrepreneurs and multinational corporations. 

Previously, Eva worked with teams of Israeli and Palestinian entrepreneurs at Middle East Entrepreneurs of Tomorrow in partnership with MIT, as a facilitator in YES! Arts and Social Change Jams, and in education and vocational training alongside women and youth in Afghanistan. Eva is the co-founder of San Francisco Playback Theater and serves on the advisory boards of Afghan Friends Network and Playback North America. Her love of wild places, dance, and putting compassion into action continues to get her into the best kind of trouble around the world.
