Conscious Capitalism is the modern way for leaders to think about capitalism and business in today’s global society. It drives organizations to serve a higher purpose, with all stakeholders finding interdependencies and synergies (vs. trade-offs). It is business as a force for good elevating people through humanity, so everyone flourishes, finds purpose – and prospers.
Over the hour, topics include:
- Implementing the 4 Tenets of Conscious Capitalism
- Insights & Tips on creating a Conscious Culture within your organization
- Leadership practices to be a Servant Leader, and to cultivate servant leaders within your management team
