Exploring the Ecosystem Metaphor Pt 2
Monday, 20 October, 2025

In this conversation, Carolina and The May 13 Group’s producer delve into the ecosystem metaphor again, discussing its implications in the nonprofit sector, the importance of holistic understanding, and the interconnectedness of various players within the ecosystem. They explore the nonprofit industrial complex as an ecosystem, the role of intention, and the potential for destruction and nourishment within these systems. The discussion also touches on the evaluation theory tree as a metaphor and questions the value of the ecosystem metaphor itself.⁠⁠Episode 13 transcript⁠NotesCOMING SOON!ReferencesCOMING SOON!Music“Inspired” Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) ⁠⁠Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0⁠⁠Contact us Website:⁠⁠ https://themay13group.net⁠⁠⁠Email: team@themay13group.net LinkedIn:Carolina: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carodela⁠⁠⁠Vidhya: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/vidhyashanker⁠⁠Donate!Raisely
