Doing Human Better My, your and our challenge for 2024 and beyond As we enter a new year, it's important to take a moment to reflect on how we can improve as individuals, organisations, and collectives. The truth is, while we've accomplished incredible scientific and technological feats, we still struggle to connect with each other in respectful, inclusive, and harmonious ways. Our society is plagued by self-centred behaviour, prejudice, bias, destructive emotions, and damaging relations. Gender-based violence, corruption, and the greed of the few versus the socio-economic strive of millions are just a few examples of the tragic tale of humanity's unravelling. So, what would this world be like if we DID HUMAN BETTER? It's a challenge we must all take on, individually and collectively. Let's strive towards a future where we prioritise empathy, respect, and inclusivity. Only then can we truly achieve our full potential as a species. In the pursuit of personal and collective growth, we invite you to join us on a journey towards integral consciousness. Our goal is to move beyond self-centred, profit-driven mindsets and embrace hope, respect, care, dignity, love, and empathy-based relations that enable us to foster environments aligned with the survival and flourishing of all sentient beings. The journey towards doing human better calls for us to wake-up, grow-up, and clean-up, in order to show-up in a more mature and inclusive way. We believe that this is possible, and we challenge you to join us in this quest towards a better future. As organisational success becomes increasingly tied to the well-being and engagement of its human capital, it is vital to create environments that foster potential and recognise the intrinsic value of individuals. We must create abundance-minded integral cultures that promote systemic survival. We pose this challenge to ourselves, our clients, and the world at large: "DO HUMAN BETTER" in the coming year! The question is, what will your contribution be?

🌍 IS DEGROWTH THE ANSWER? AND WHAT WOULD IT REALLY MEAN? Imagine a world where growth isn't measured by material accumulation, but by the depth of our connections and the care we show for our planet - comes the paper of Hansen and Iana Nesterova . The concept of degrowth, often associated with the need to reduce material and energy throughput, transcends mere downsizing; it's about fundamentally rethinking societal norms and behaviors. Advocates emphasize not just consuming less, but also producing, working, and relating differently, all in pursuit of greater well-being and social justice. However, what's often overlooked is that degrowth involves growth in specific areas crucial for societal transformation. Such nuanced understanding of degrowth forms the backdrop for exploring its implications across four interdependent planes of social being: 1. Material Transactions with Nature: Degrowth calls for reducing material and energy consumption while fostering more sustainable interactions with the environment. This entails less waste, pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions, alongside a shift towards cleaner energy sources and a deeper respect for biodiversity and ecosystems. 2. Social Interactions between Persons: Transformation in social interactions is essential, moving away from competitiveness, greed, and intolerance towards empathy, sufficiency, and tolerance of diversity. Such shifts require a reevaluation of human nature, emphasizing inherent goodness and the potential for positive interactions. 3. Social Structure: Degrowth envisions socio-economic systems with reduced competition, inequality, and bureaucracy, promoting collaborative relations, flat hierarchies, and equitable resource distribution. These changes challenge the growth imperative of capitalism, emphasizing cooperation and fairness. 4. Peoples' Inner Being: Personal transformations are crucial, encouraging individuals to become less self-centered and materialistic while cultivating empathy, mindfulness, and a sense of interconnectedness with others and the world. This inner shift is foundational for meaningful societal change. Across these planes, the guiding principles of „gentleness and #care“ emerge as essential drivers of degrowth. Gentleness involves sensitivity, concern, and intentional kindness towards all beings, while care encompasses the maintenance and nurturing of our world for collective well-being. ✨ Are you convinced of the degrowth movement or do you see more potential in other #heterodox approaches? Or do you believe that technology will be the solution? Tell us and we'll take a closer look in our new webcast Business for Humanity. 💬 Looking forward to your thoughts and insights for the Launch Session on March 12th.

Today, people talk, teach, share – that is all most people do. What about action? Words mean nothing when not accompanied by actions. Human beings have become loud vessels without substance. The social media is full of noise. People want to teach others, people want to talk, and just make some noise, either for profit or just to be heard. The understanding of reasoning and discipline is absent in society. The pursuit of vanity is distracting people. The cause of suffering and premature death is in the fangs of money and pleasure. In this journey of transformation, we learn that true wisdom lies not in mere intellectualism but in the synthesis of knowledge and experience. As the ancient philosophers advised, 'know thyself,' this introspection is the first step towards societal transformation. We must embark on a journey within, exploring our inner landscapes, acknowledging our flaws, and committing to personal growth. This personal evolution sparks a quiet revolution. As we change, our actions become the seeds of inspiration for others. It's not about grand gestures but the daily practice of empathy, kindness, and authenticity. Our changed demeanor speaks louder than any motivational speech. This silent yet powerful shift challenges the status quo of societal norms, encouraging others to reflect and embark on their journeys of self-improvement. Moreover, in a world obsessed with material gain and superficial success, we must redefine our measures of achievement. True success is not in accumulating wealth or fame but in cultivating a rich inner life and contributing positively to the lives of others. This shift in perspective alleviates the relentless pursuit of external validation, liberating us from the clutches of consumerism and societal pressures. As we evolve, we must also embrace the power of collective action. While individual transformation is crucial, it's in the coming together of enlightened souls that real societal change occurs. Communities founded on mutual respect, understanding, and shared values have the power to challenge and change the systemic issues plaguing our society. Finally, in a digital age where information overload and the constant bombardment of stimuli can overwhelm, it's imperative to seek silence and solitude. In these moments of quiet, away from the cacophony of the digital world, we find clarity and purpose. It's in the whispers of our soul that we discover our true calling, away from the noise and distractions of the external world. In conclusion, the path to societal transformation begins with the individual. It's a journey of introspection, action, and connection. As we change ourselves, we inspire others, creating a ripple effect that has the power to transform the world. Let us embrace this journey with open hearts and minds, for in our transformation lies the hope for a better, more compassionate, and enlightened world."
