From tiny urban forests in Tokyo and the star-rich skies of Flagstaff, to the meandering waters of Munich and prowling lions of Nairobi, this is a globe-spanning look at how to bring nature into the places we live – and how to create the wild cities of the future.

Every employee publicly lists personal objectives and key results to clarify goals and priorities.  
Failure is viewed as a learning opportunity, promoting a proactive approach. 
This management style leads to spontaneous and successful results.
