25.01.2022 Explore the fourth in the series of posts showcasing some of the best presentations from Conscious Capitalism ROC Virtual Summit 2020. This panel discussion titled Racism as a Public Health Crisis and a Business Imperative asks how businesses can tackle racism both inside their organisations and in the broader community? A case is made for the strong correlation between positive social outcomes and their respective business implications. We should no longer be thinking of c...ulture and businesses as existing in separate spheres but rather as forces which interact on a variety of complex layers. Its time to start seeing business as a catalyst for social change not the antonym.

23.01.2022 In 2020, the priorities of large businesses have shifted immensely. The days in which the bottom line trumps everything are long past. Businesses today need to re-balance priorities, moving away from the pure bottom line to unleashing their potential to unlock a prosperous and sustainable future for all. Take a look at how these 5 different businesses take into account all stakeholders, generating positive impact for their employees, related economies, communities, and the ...environment, and integrating those goals as part of the profit-making process. These businesses truly embody Conscious Capitalisms ethos that business has the power to do good in the world. https://www.businessinsider.com.au/t2-cua-patagonia-and-kic #consciouscapitalism #businessforgood #changemakers #consciousbusiness #valuesled #socialimpact #socialgood #consciousliving #consciousculture #higherpurpose #forceforgood #purposebeyondprofit #consciousconversations #sharedvalue #reinventingbusiness #businesstransformation

21.01.2022 The Intrepid Travel story is a story of courage, commitment and caring. A #BCorp and partner of Conscious Capitalism Australia & NZ, it is living proof that conscious business is not only good for the world, but good for business. Since inception in 1989, it has become the worlds largest adventure travel tour operator, providing what it calls their unique style of sustainable, experience-rich travel that also give back to the local communities, places and the planet. Intrepi...d has been carbon neutral since 2010 and aims to become carbon positive in the future. It convinced about 250 other tour operators to cease offering elephant riding, resulting in an increased awareness of the negative aspects of not only elephant riding but also the unnecessary use of all wild animals in tourism. And recently, they have become the first global tour operator to have published an Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan. In this interview with co-founder Geoff Manchester, we hear what it means to bring the BCorp and Conscious Capitalism ethos alive in business. https://consciouscapitalism.org.au//stories-of-conscious-/ B Corporation - Australia & NZ #BCorp #BCorpStory #IntrepidTravel #BeIntrepid #travel #businessforgood #purpose #socialimpact #consciouscapitalism #CCANZ #changingtheworld #consciousbusiness #purposedriven

20.01.2022 "Capitalism has proved resilient for two reasons. First, a structured system of exchange is a natural, human way for us to value resources and get them to where they are wanted and needed. The marketplace has been central to all civilisations. Second, it is a flexible system that adapts to changes in society and the world. It has been through many different stages of evolution." As it continues to evolve, capitalism continues to be redefined. In what ways will it change as the world becomes more socially orientated?

A circular economy, is sustainable and promotes the re-use and recycling of materials. So what exactly are the benefits of a circular economy?

12.01.2022 Otto Scharmer is hugely influential in shaping the Conscious Capitalism mindset. As a senior lecturer at MIT he has pioneered ideas surrounding cross-sector innovation in what he calls Theory U - a methodology for more effective decision making that moves past shareholder empathy to stakeholder empowerment. Travelling through the complexities of our current world can be hard and stagnating. In such times it helps to turn to other figures, philosophers and thinkers to expand your mind and reignite the flame of curiosity. #consciouscapitalism #businessforgood #consciousbusiness #valuesled #socialimpact #consciousliving #consciousculture #consciouscapitalist #higherpurpose #forceforgood #consciousconversations #purposedrivenleadership #buildbackbetter #quoteoftheday #philosophy #consciousmindset #CCANZ #OttoScharmer
