The Science of Conscious Business - Video Discussion #climatecrises


Well said! We need a wholistic approach to save our planet and we need all sectors and all people of our society to do their part.

I invite you to view this video conversation from the Conscious Business World Summit, hosted by the Humanity Team Worldwide that took place earlier this year. We discuss and explore the convergence of spirituality, evolutionary science and biomimicry on the "Conscious Business" movement. We explore theoretical aspects as well as concrete examples of the rapidly growing number of businesses that are discovering and embracing this enlightened business model, best described as - "Business as a Powerful Force for Good".


Here is the link to the video: The Science of Conscious Business Discussion 

I believe this video helps us to understand how we might address the climate crisis with the whole system in mind, including our urgent need for a spiritual, cultural and economic transformation”. We must address the crises on all levels, including the root causes of all the chaos, conflicts, destruction, and hate we are experiencing around our world. “Conscious Businesses” are in a unique position to help accelerate climate crisis solutions and move us towards a world where all people and the planet have the opportunity to flourish.

The participants in this conversation include:

David Sloan Wilson, who has made foundational contributions to evolutionary science and its applications to human affairs. He is SUNY Distinguished Professor of Biology and Anthropology at Binghamton University and president of the Evolution Institute 
   
Tamsin Woolley-Barker, Evolutionary Biologist, Anthropologist, and Biomimicry Professional, and the Author of TEEMING: How Superorganisms Work to Build Infinite Wealth in a Finite World. Founder, Tamsin Woolley-Barker

What is a DreamMaker?

My passion for spotlighting DreamMakers is born out of my belief that we all are extraordinary and together we can change the world. My upbringing, education, career choices and my personal journey have convinced me that we all have the capacity to become DreamMakers. My personal mission is to share these “pockets of hope” wherever and however I can, to inspire us to transform our lives, organizations, institutions, and our communities to create a better world. My Work: I work with leadership teams of organizations to help them to mobilize their people and stakeholders around a shared vision and shared values and to tap into the minds, hearts and imagination of their people to transform their vision and values into reality. I have seen them accomplish amazing results, by any measure. My First Book:  DreamMakers: Putting Vision & Values To Work was published in 1998. It was translated into Portuguese and published by Qualitymark in Brazil in 2002. It features 13 stories ...

Ronaldo Monteiro - transformed his life from serial kidnapper to a phenomenal DreamMaker

I started this blog to share real life stories of people who triumph over tremendous obstacles - people I call DreamMakers. My intention for “And The Good News is…” is to inspire hope and to demonstrate that we all have the capacity to change our reality.  Ronaldo is the Founder of IEE and The Center for Social and Cultural Integration (CISC), two grassroots organizations that partner with CDI in helping people in underserved communities to transform their lives.

A world that responds quickly and effectively to social challenges, and where each individual has the freedom, confidence and so...

Obstacles are merely a point of view.

Obstacles are a part of life. They can drain us of our energy or ignite our imagination. When we view obstacles as challenges we can see the opportunities to tap into the creative genius that lies in all of us.  We have been conditioned to avoid risk, to be safe - to control our lives. Yet we all know that we can’t predict nor prevent obstacles from falling in our path. Because of our point of view, obstacles often throw us into a state of fear – this is no way to live. Look at our institutions, organizations, laws and norms – most are built on negative assumptions. We are taught that people can’t be trusted; that we have limits on our growth and that we need to be dependent on the few in power at the top. Our media, especially TV and radio programming, flood us with stories, talk shows and “information” that fuel these negative assumptions. Most politicians capture our attention by fueling our fears. We have been taught to doubt and limit ourselves and to question the potential ...
