In this workshop on Conscious Capitalism at Nyenrode Business University, Dr. Marc Gafni, Ken Wilber (on skype), and Prof. Dr. Paul de Blot explored the following questions:
- What are the three core principles of running a conscious capitalist business?
- What is the difference between the shareholder model and the stakeholder model and why it matters?
- Why is it essential for the success of a company that the company is able to identify its Unique self?
- What are the three reasons that changing the perception of business in the modern world is essential to the success of business?
- Why is the evolution of business from unconscious to conscious capitalism essential to the financial bottom line of a company?
Let’s celebrate the crisis and rethink new values and a new role of capitalism. What does it really take to forge new paths in terms of radical changes born from the ethical and spiritual wisdom of Ken Wilber?
Spiritual and ethical consciousness in doing business and making money includes four principles:
- Higher purpose of the meaning of life
- Interdependent stakeholders orientation
- Conscious leadership based on self-leadership
- Conscious culture of trust with awareness for each other
