Good Lab 好單位是一個致力於推動社會創新的機構。 我們培育和連結創新力量,促成跨界協作,為不同的社會議題尋找以人為本的對策,共創更好的未來。
如何實踐我們的願景?
我們打破固有的框框,積極與不同單位合作,擁抱創意和多元,共創嶄新的解決方案,致力改善社會和公共服務。我們作為社會創新顧問,秉持「4C」的理念。
Franco愛以大自然為靈感,專注為人提供想像、創造和合成不同構思的土壤,以克服他們最關心的社會議題。 他渴望幫助人們感到更有意識,敏感,及有能力完成他們所面臨的任何挑戰。
他從香港理工大學獲得會計學士學位後,先從事企業融資和供應鏈,然後轉到社創界,重點透過孵化培育社會企業家。
當不在思考社會議題時,他喜歡散步、寫作,及與妻子和兩個孩子一起度過時光。
正如城市理論家Jane Jacob所主張「一個能夠提供所有人一些價值的城市,只會是因為她是由所有人一同創造。」因此Pun堅信城市中每個人都有能力想像並實踐更美好的城市和公共生活。
Pun畢業於香港中文大學,主修城市研究,副修社會學,及後取得香港大學城市規劃理學碩士。在加入Good Lab前,Pun曾參與有關基層醫療的倡議;亦在公營機構參與過規劃工作,關注城市可持續發展。在此過程中,Pun理解到新科技、概念與大環境正衝擊著人們理解與改造城市的固有方法。因此,Pun致力於探索城市及空間發展的新途徑和可能性,促進更具包容性和可持續性的城市發展與規劃方式在香港發生。Pun相信,只有當每個市民都有機會備受尊重地參與其中,我們才能創造足夠的韌性回應正在到來的城市挑戰。
工作以外,Pun喜歡攝影、散步與寫詩,在相片和文字中感受與梳理對世界的想像。

香港詩人也斯提出的著名難題:「香港的故事,為甚麼這麼難說?」就如Tom正爲這段自我介紹而苦惱,不知從何說起,不知該說甚麼。正因如此,在這個城市裏,Tom相信每個願意被分享的故事,不論大小長短,都是難能可貴的。而這些故事並非未曾寫下,只是尚未揭開而已。
Tom畢業於浸會大學中文系,這四年學習生涯使其萌生對人文精神的憧憬,加上過往的編採經歷,令他期待加入Good Lab後能收集大衆的聲音,讓彼此的意見共鳴,建立互信的基礎,解決未來的問題。
另外,Tom喜歡欣賞各類文化作品及討論相關議題,從文本、音樂到電影,有時間可以多多推薦!
英國人類學家 Tim Ingold 認為,世界的紋理都是由線所組成。人的生命也是一樣,我們彼此糾纏編織成結。Ellis 渴望在如今疏離的社會,透過微細的創造,重新建立人與人之間互信的羈絆。
Ellis 畢業於香港中文大學文化研究學士課程。中大的學習經歷和記者的工作經驗,讓他更能夠同理社會的不同個體。及後,Ellis 到國立臺灣大學建築與城鄉研究所修讀碩士課程,研讀都市空間有關的議題,包括性別友善、文化遺產、參與式規劃等。兩年臺灣的經驗,讓他領會到異質多元的社會,更需要眾人用心努力維繫。
Ellis 加入 Good Lab 後,期待與更多同路人,營造出更好的香港。
Fredy 畢業於香港理工大學,一直以來,他抱持着「使人相信希望並帶來改變」的信念。他曾在一間私營醫療機構擔任傳訊工作,推廣「健康公平」,並透過文字紀錄「以人為本」醫療服務改寫生命的故事。 他亦曾赴台灣從事教育工作,更參與當地青年更生計劃,為當地的更生青年策劃活動,見證更生青年蛻變成年輕領袖的實例。在台的經歷讓他看到青年充權的重要性,同時啟發了其對公民社會和社區參與的好奇和想像。
Fredy 現時在 Good Lab 主要負責青年項目,他希望其跨界別、跨地域的職涯背景和洞察能為香港社會創新工作帶來更多火花和可能性。他期待連繫來自不同界別的有心人,為青年帶來更多創變的機會。公餘時,Fredy 熱心於義工服務,在非牟利機構為有需要人士提供情緒支援。他同時亦會參與靜觀、星象研究等活動。

About Good Lab
Good Lab is an award-winning, non-profit social innovation consultancy in Hong Kong dedicated to inspiring and fostering positive social change through human-centered design and cross-sector collaboration.
As a think-and-do tank, our mission is to connect diverse minds and actions to bring innovative ideas to life. We design and implement social innovation projects and training programs to build capacity for change and address complex social issues faced by our society, particularly in community design, youth empowerment, civic participation, service innovation, environmental sustainability, and social venture incubation.
Since 2012, we have been working at the intersection of civil society, NGOs, government, and businesses to facilitate innovative co-creation by leveraging Design Thinking. Prioritising people and fostering dialogue is at the core of our work, as we believe this is the key to co-creating a more sustainable and improved future.
We are currently seeking a Project Officer (Research), on a contract basis, to support our expanding and exciting range of new projects and partnerships.
About The Role – Project Officer (Research)
As a social researcher at Good Lab, your typical day can involve the following—researching on the subjects of museum management and social innovation, providing the project team with insights into the areas and identifying, outreaching to and conducting research at external information sources, including but not limited to scholars and community members…most probably not sequentially but simultaneously. But that also means you will have the opportunities to get very hands-on in every stage of the project and that work is rarely boring. Every day here, we as changemakers, learn a little something new about our city and how it can be better designed and run for the people living and working here.
We are now looking for someone who already looked up the definition of social innovation and is keen to experiment with it here in Hong Kong. Specifically, we want someone comfortable working within small teams to drive the delivery of consulting projects in the social and public sectors. This person gets to compile and maintain research findings as written reports, briefing notes and related documentation to support the project team in making informed decisions. Most importantly, we need this person to be a changemaker with a collaborative mindset who is always willing to flex the creative muscles to design innovative, user-centred, and grounded solutions in response to the needs of communities and people.

Phoebe 生活在香港這個大城市,眼見社會充斥著各種問題,卻不知道該如何著手解決。
然而,大學為她打開了一扇尋找答案的窗口。Phoebe 於香港浸會大學主修人文及創作系,在學期間得以廣泛閱讀、學習和反思,其學習範圍涵蓋文學、哲學、藝術、性別、媒體理論、文化論述、城市空間及設計等。
她覺悟到,要為社會帶來真正的改變,必先跳出書本和理論框架,親身投入和參與社區工作。為此,Phoebe 曾於媒體機構中擔任實習編輯,探究世界各地值得反思和討論的議題。她亦於不同文化藝術機構實習。由始至終,她緊抱一個信念:有人生活的地方就一定有解決問題的方法,社會才會在大家的合作和創變中成為我們理想的模樣。
Phoebe希望在未來能夠繼續本著「以人為本」的精神,活用創意改變社會。她提醒自己要努力成為一個身體力行、樂於面對挑戰的人,在堅持自己的信念中繼續向前行。
社會有時候會令人洩氣,她是一組無情的機械、自私的森林、會吃人的家庭。Leo 向來樂於抱怨,他總覺得,責罵一輪之後心情就會舒暢了。在新聞系裡翻書好幾年後,他發現自己可以為這個討人厭的社會做更多。
Leo 驚覺社會創新與設計思維可能就是讓市民喜愛上這社區的關鍵。問題並不是一日間湧現的,社區問題難以解決但不至無可救藥,對付老毛病可以靠新方法。要改善社區上不友善之處,最好能夠親身聆聽市民訴苦,從他們的罵聲中,找出能喚起社區各種可能的語句;如果他們願意的話,何不讓他們也共同執起繪畫社會的畫筆?社會正是如此不完美,才值得我們共同去托展邊界。Leo 公餘喜歡看電影,讀漫畫,近日正苦惱該如何學好攝影。
Clarice是香港中文大學社會科學學士,修讀地理與資源管理學,本科的訓練令她深入地理解到許多與環境和資源分配相關的議題。她深信要有人文關懷和前瞻眼界才能為這些議題找出解決方法,促進社會持續發展。同時,Clarice 亦對文化保育方面有濃厚興趣,曾在課餘時間參與推廣本土文化的義工計劃,了解到香港更多不同的面貌。
平日Clarice喜歡透過看電影和遊走市內各處地方觀察人們的生活,刺激思考。雖然 Clarice 看似文靜,但她喜歡跟別人聊天、聆聽他們的故事,並因此參加了校內的學生 組織訪問不同的人,把每個人獨一無二的經歷輯錄成文,留下記錄。一人的力量縱使微小,但她希望可以從自身開始感染身邊的人,從而令更多人關心各種切身的議題,營造一個更美好的社會。

We are now looking for two Project Managers to lead our growing and exciting array of new projects and partnerships with a focus on Public Sector Innovation and Youth Empowerment respectively. Read below to find out more about the positions.
About The Role – Project Manager (Public Sector Innovation)
As a social consultant at Good Lab, your typical day can involve the following—making phone calls to community members, dissecting information gathered from public engagement activities you designed and facilitated, researching new trends and perspectives in social innovation, co-creating actionable solutions with stakeholders to address community issues…most probably not sequentially but simultaneously. But that also means you will have the opportunities to get very hands on in every stage of the projects and that work is rarely boring. Every day here, we as changemakers, learn a little something new about our city of Hong Kong and how it can be better designed and run for the people in it.
We are now looking for someone who already looked up the definition of social innovation and is keen to experiment it here in Hong Kong. Specifically, we want a person who is comfortable with managing small teams to plan and deliver consulting projects in the social and public sectors. This person gets to set the tone of how the project team engages with its stakeholders, ranging from youth and elderly to government agencies, as well as organisational partners and collaborators. Most importantly, we need this person to be able to articulate Good Lab’s vision for the project and flex creative muscles to implement it with the aim to design innovative, user-centred, and grounded solutions in response to the needs of communities and people.
About The Role – Project Manager (Youth Empowerment)
Working within a passionate small team, we are looking for a person who does not only want to sit at a computer all day. The main duties of this role are to manage a portfolio of innovative social programmes to promote youth empowerment and participation, talent development, and incubate new social ventures that will deliver tangible outcomes for our communities in Hong Kong. You will be engaging directly with our partners to design and implement impact-driven programmes targeted at youth from all walks of life, and coordinate dialogues between multiple stakeholders in different communities. You will also get to inspire and develop young changemakers by arranging bespoke and engaging workshops, seminars and coaching sessions to build their capacities as caring, community-centred individuals with an entrepreneurial spirit. In addition, there will be opportunities to engage with and advise early-stage social start-ups, help them navigate their growth paths, and support their innovation journeys.

We are now looking for a Communications Manager / Communications Officer to take on the important role as story-teller of our impact experiences acquired from different social innovation projects.
About The Role
With a broad range of projects and partnerships in our portfolio, we need a bright mind to help us manage and form a clear, consistent narrative to let people understand what we do at Good Lab and communicate our vision. The Communications Manager needs to work directly with the CEO and establish a unique brand strategy for Good Lab and manage the right actions—from social media management to multi-media production and event curation, in order to get our impact messages across and connect with the target audience. They can be young people just coming out of schools, or businesses looking for impact-making opportunities—it is all very versatile. Building an impact network with external partners and collaborators is also a key function of the role, as the Communications Manager would essentially be sowing the seeds for Good Lab’s longer-term partnerships and even alliances.

Beatrice畢業於香港大學文學院,修讀中國文學與比較文學。工作以外,她亦是獨立音樂演出策劃人及網絡雜誌編輯。
受到中國道家經典《道德經》的啟發,Christy深信「上善若水」、「水善利萬物而不爭」的道理。

工作之外,Christy喜歡留在家裡陪伴她的小朋友,或一起到公園玩。創意無限的小朋友,每天為Christy帶來啟發,學習和成長是每天的新鮮事。她為香港城市大學專業英語傳意文學士、香港大學國際及公共事務理學碩士。
Monique 的願景是通過資訊科技、尊重和同理心讓世界變得更強大和有可持續的運作。
Monique 作為屢獲殊榮的英國註冊專業管理顧問,曾於公共部門和企業服務,於商業策略、網絡安全、數據和數碼轉型方面均擁有豐富的經驗。她領導環球企業孵化計劃去開發新的收入流,並鼓勵和協助員工成為自己專業範疇的領袖。

Ling 畢業於香港城市大學的公共政策與政治學系,在學期間,她發現社會的問題一直演化,但解決的方案卻未能追上腳步,大多以「由上而下」的模式去應對,然而卻未能確切回應社會的需要。
社會創新的思維及模式令她眼前一亮,她發現公眾的共同參與或能另闢蹊徑,應對越趨複雜的社會挑戰。
同時,Ling 認為香港本土其實還有很多有待發掘的地方及特色,因此她亦喜歡在閒暇的時間參與不同的本地文化導賞團,在香港各處走走,了解自己成長的這片土地。如果你曾參與過一些有趣的文化導賞團,不妨推介給她!

Christy堅信故事是公民參與的重要一部分。 對她而言,文字的影響力並不限於個人,更是連結社會大眾,就共同利益採取實質行動、推動社會進步的載體。
這信念亦令Christy熱衷參與義務社會研究工作,特別是可持續城市規劃和環境政策這兩大議題。透過這些經驗,她意識到自己希望進一步提高她在社區參與過程中的興趣和經驗,這也成為她加入 Good Lab 的契機。
工作以外,Christy 也熱愛戶外活動,特別是遠足和沖浪,而她最近的興趣則是空中藝術!

As a social consultant at Good Lab, your typical day can involve the following – making phone calls to community members, dissecting information gathered from public engagement activities you designed and facilitated, researching new trends and perspectives in social innovation, co-creating actionable solutions with stakeholders to address community issues…most probably not sequentially but simultaneously. But that also means you will have the opportunities to get very hands-on in every stage of the projects and that work is rarely boring. Every day here, we as changemakers, learn a little something new about our city of Hong Kong and how it can be better designed and run for the people in it.
We are now looking for someone who already looked up the definition of social innovation and is keen to experiment it here in Hong Kong. Specifically, we want a person who is comfortable with managing small teams to plan and deliver consulting projects in the social and public sectors. This person gets to set the tone of how the project team engages with its stakeholders, ranging from youth and elderly to government agencies, as well as organisational partners. Most importantly, we need this person to be able to articulate Good Lab’s vision for the project and flex creative muscles to implement it with the aim to design innovative, user-centred, and grounded solutions in response to the needs of communities and people.

Hedda began her social impact journey as a volunteer in Sweden tutoring refugee students. Through hearing these young people’s stories of leaving home to seek safety in a foreign country, she learnt that regardless of the different backgrounds we come from, what we’re seeking is the same. Such also, is the beauty of social innovation – although the problems each society faces may be similar, there is a spectrum of possibilities in how we tackle them when we work with different people to co-create solutions. After working in the asylum seeker space for six years, Hedda journeyed on to explore other ways of looking at societal challenges and is currently coordinating the design thinking training program at Good Lab. When she’s not building PowerPoint decks, she’ll be pretending to be a hipster at the local café or trying to convince friends to binge watch a Scandinavian detective series.
Hedda holds a BA (Linguistics) from The University of Melbourne and is currently studying a Masters in Social Impact.

Douglas是一個旅行家,希望遊遍世界每一個角落。走入陌生的地方,摸索著不熟悉的語言,與當地尋常人家分享交流,這些點滴時光,最令人回味(比起在海灘喝一杯的快感,有過之而無不及,雖然這也是人生一大快事)。他相信人與人之間的連結,從賣烤肉的小販,到搭上同一班火車的旅客,他遇上的每一個人,也會帶來啟發。
他也是個長跑好手,可以連跑數小時而不覺厭倦,因為從中他學到最重要的一課:只要相信夢想,永不言棄,堅持下來便有轉機。
「你能想像到的一切都是真實的。」
Lydia覺得社會創新可以拉闊想像,總是能夠促成別開生面的跨界協作,實踐過去難以想像的事情。藉著這種協同效應,有助開發不同界別的資源,為本地以至世界各地的社會政治僵局,帶來嶄新的解決方案。

工作以外,Lydia享受在香港的大街小巷散步,閱讀大量小說和短篇故事,愛好美食,歡迎來問她有什麼心水餐廳!
Lydia 為香港大學新聞學學士,主修新聞學及政治與公共行政學。
Etienne, with her training in History at Lingnan University, regards innovation as crucial in all time – as we witness the failure of the old fashioned and the success of the innovators throughout the course of history. She believes social innovation can transform the society with a positive impact through collaborations and dialogues in the communities, and everyone can take initiatives to be a changemaker while influencing each other. She is also concerned about a range of social problems, particularly human rights and environmental issues.
Before joining Good Lab, Etienne developed her career in the non-profit sector of Hong Kong and had spent two years working at a retail business in London. She enjoys travelling, going to the theatre and gym for leisure.
Duncan 畢業於香港大學社會學系。大學給予他鍛練批判思考的空間。面對時下的社會問題,他從不滿足於「維持現狀」或「人云亦云」的解決方法,務求另闢蹊徑,探索更多可能的出路。
然而,Duncan深信了解一個社區的最佳方法就是走進社群,直接與人交流對話。所以,如果你在街上遇見他,不妨與他聊聊天,向他介紹一下你所在的社區!他這份關懷社區的熱誠源自中學時期的長期義工服務。現時,他亦是青年發展委員會的委員,就青年政策向政府發聲。
加入Good Lab 好單位之前,Duncan是一位著重實證的研究員,透過數據及大眾的意見分析不同社會議題,以實證描繪社會的現狀。而未來,他旨於秉承實證為本的精神,為社會尋找並提供更具創見、用家為本的解決方案。
Alexa相信人文價值是社會創新的核心精神。對她而言,在回應社會種種挑戰前,我們需要先思考兩個核心問題:用家有什麼需要?如何和用家共創解決方案?
為了尋找以上答案,Alexa相信最好的辦法便是走進社區,認識不同背景的人,擦出不一樣的火花。她的工作足跡遍佈全港,東至大專院校、南至青年機構、西至培訓中心及北至新界鄉村。
加入Good Lab 好單位之前,Alexa在一個本地慈善組織工作,多次為小學及社區中心籌辦大型的讀寫支援計畫,協助出身低收入家庭的逾1,200名學生提升讀寫能力。

Elizabeth曾遊走於社會倡議的不同領域,先後在多間非牟利機構、社企、廣告及設計公司工作,擔任不同的崗位,策劃跨界別的協作項目,致力推動社會正義和環保運動。她擅長策劃公眾及持份者參與活動,通過營造公眾意識為社群充權。

現今世界面臨複雜的問題,礙於過時的制度和基建,不論是我們的經濟、社會或司法制度,也難以趕上日新月異的科技進步所帶來的變化,因而加劇全球暖化、貧窮問題、社會排斥等各種嚴峻的挑戰。然而,張瑞霖先生(Patrick)認為我們可以選擇一種更好的生活方式,不但體現承擔,更能達致永續和共融的發展。
Patrick 從不迴避生活中的挑戰,樂於應付一些看似難以解決的社會問題,並推動正面的社會影響。自從將軟包裝材料公司的業務出售,Patrick 投身社會企業,致力回應社會上弱勢社群的需要,展開人生的新一章。2009年,他將世界知名的「黑暗中對話」引入香港,善用社會創新的變革力量。黑暗中對話(香港)獲得前所未有的成功,在無需依賴捐款和政府資助的情況下,實現了財政的可持續性。2011年,他創辦「滴水基金會」,推動長者服務的社會創新。2012年,他又成立社企「尊賢會」,旨在以可持續的商業模式,發展安老計劃。此外,Patrick 為香港社會創業論壇的其中一位創會董事,致力打造香港的社創平台。

Innovation is the reconciliation of opposing forces. In a city full of dilemmas, Vincent believes social innovation is the only way out, and “solution journalism” is what he is passionately advocating for.
He founded Solution-On-Wheels, a social enterprise promoting solution journalism in Asia, to explore and analyse solutions in the news to solve complex, often intractable, social issues. He aspires to create a positive mindset shift for news professionals – to present social issues through a “solution frame” rather than a “problem frame”, focusing on the practical and human elements of social innovation to allow some of the most divisive views to co-exist in harmony, facilitating constructive dialogues in the community.
Vincent has been trained to think creatively and critically ever since he was young, and he is dedicated to galvanising public, corporate and non-profit partners with the spirit of social innovation. He started his career at Ogilvy & Mather Advertising, and joined the HKSAR Government until 2000. As Administrative Officer, he worked on issues around town planning and social welfare, and had a deep understanding of contending interests across sectors.
Vincent was the Director of Strategic Planning at Hong Kong Commercial Broadcasting Company. He is currently hosting the radio programme “Our Way Out” on Commercial Radio One and television programme “Open Mind” on Open TV. His book, Macro-creativity, was recognised as “Hong Kong Good Book” in 2005, followed by the launch of The Transformation of Hong Kong in 2012. Vincent received his MBA from the University of Cambridge and an LL.B. from the University of London.
奉行資本主義的商界,以往一直被認為利益掛帥,而無助推動社會的正面改變。時至今日,面對迫在眉睫的社會挑戰,商界逐漸成為協力解決問題的重要動力。黃岳永先生(Erwin)相信,通過教育和技術創新,我們可以重新定義和振興資本主義,以消弭經濟、環境和社會上的不平等。三十多年來,他一直致力推動教育改革和營造社會企業的生態圈。
Erwin 有志培育年青人的創業家精神,並積極尋求變革。現任香港科技大學副教授和高級顧問的 Erwin,熱衷教導年輕人如何實踐創新。他亦為青年成就香港部副主席,致力培育新一代的創業家。此外,Erwin 也是「DreamStarter啟夢者計劃」的創辦人之一,DreamStarter 是一個社會創新教育項目,旨在為年輕人提供課外體驗,啟發學生一步步實踐夢想。通過這個平台,Erwin 希望激發學生積極樂觀的態度和樂於助人的精神,透過網上眾籌和共享資源,回饋社會。
Erwin 富好奇心且活力充沛,除了工作上力求創新,亦熱衷探索鮮為人知的好去處、嶄新的商業模式,以及刷新用家體驗的電子產品。作為虛擬實境有限公司顧問團主席,他致力在各學校推廣虛擬實境教學。為了扶貧紓困,他成立了「加油香港」,旨在為基層人士提供廉價而優質的日用品。Erwin 同時活躍於慈善界,作為社職有限公司主席,致力志願服務創新,以回應社會迫切的需要,鼓勵公眾利用資訊技術參與社會事業。同時,Erwin 亦擔任業界多間機構的董事和政府轄下諮詢委員會成員。
徐苑思女士(Elsie)擁有豐富的企業行政和管理諮詢經驗。她曾任職於 ?What If! Innovation Company(現為埃森哲旗下公司)設於上海的亞洲辦公室。Elsie 致力於創新管理、通過設計思維培育創新人才,以及策劃企業創新,曾經為歐洲和亞洲獲《財富》選為全球500強的企業領袖,舉辦多場培訓工作坊,成效顯著。她亦曾為香港及中國內地的企業夥伴和非牟利機構,策劃設計思維培訓課程。
任職 ?What If! 期間,Elsie 受到倫敦辦公室同事從事公益工作的啟發,包括應用設計思維來創造嶄新的方案,解決非洲女性割禮問題。Elsie 發現,社會創新可以脫離舊有的社會福利運作模式,發揮更大的影響力。為了進一步認識社會企業和社會創新,Elsie 決定修讀相關學科的博士學位。
Elsie 投身諮詢顧問行業之前,曾擔任可口可樂中國公共事務及傳訊部副主管。由於熱衷教學,Elsie 現時任教於香港中文大學商學院,教授課程包括策略管理、社會創業學與創效投資、設計思維和企業社會責任。同時,她還開辦創企加速器計劃,致力培育香港年輕一代的社會企業家。
Elsie 獲得英國劍橋大學(University of Cambridge)賈吉商學院 的 MBA 學位,以及法國格勒諾布爾管理學院(Grenoble School of Management)的博士學位。Elsie 有一半泰裔血統,她的童年在不同的國家度過,擁有豐富的跨文化經驗,曾任職上海、倫敦,以及在雅典短暫工作居留。Elsie 愛好音樂,一度是搖滾樂隊的鼓手。此外,她也愛聽 podcast,尤其是真人真事改編的犯罪故事,更與一班業餘愛好者組成「偵探」小組,探討發人深省(有時甚至令人毛骨悚然)的話題。
「如果科技繼續按照現時的方向發展,忽視窮人的需要,助長富人的利益,窮人遲早會起來推翻科技的霸權,轉投非理性和暴力的手段,以改弦易轍。」科學家和思想家弗里曼‧戴森(Freeman Dyson)在1997年寫下這個洞見。Kim 對戴森的話有很深的體會,尤其喚起他在英、美的成長經驗,以及其後在香港長達40年的生活和工作生涯所帶來的省思。戴森的話更是一個叩問:我們能否引領科技的潮流,導向改善市民生活的方向發展,為我們的社會帶來希望?答案在於創新。創新不是指技術層面,而是社會各界攜手合作的方式。在這個問題上,Kim 最喜愛的作家戴森帶來啟廸:「在各行各業中,業餘愛好者享有更多實驗和創新的自由。業餘愛好者所佔的人口比例,正好標誌著社會的自由度」。由此,我們不需要專業的社會創新者,因為每個人都可以成為社創人才。
在英國的歲月,Kim 曾經做過酒保、造船工人、工廠工人、倉務員和考古學家。1980年來港,擔任公務員長達 37 年,在公職生涯中,曾任職效率促進辦公室,並協助成立社會創新及創業發展基金。退休後,Kim 持續關注城市和社會議題,以及各界組織如何分享知識,聆聽社會需要,不斷學習改進。他好讀不倦,愛好歷史研究和偵探小說,閒時喜歡為他收藏的迷你玩具士兵上色。
