Publisher Description

FROM THE BACKCOVER


The way we manage organizations seems increasingly out of date. Deep inside, we sense that more is possible. We long for soulful workplaces, for authenticity, community, passion, and purpose.


In this groundbreaking book, the author shows that every time, in the past, when humanity has shifted to a new stage of consciousness, it has achieved extraordinary breakthroughs in collaboration. A new shift in consciousness is currently underway. Could it help us invent a more soulful and purposeful way to run our businesses and nonprofits, schools and hospitals?


A few pioneers have already cracked the code and they show us, in practical detail, how it can be done. Leaders, founders, coaches, and consultants will find this work a joyful handbook, full of insights, examples, and inspiring stories.

    Consciously Creating the Future

    In 2000 a friend gave me a copy of Liberating the Corporate Soul by Richard Barrett (since updated as The Values Driven Organisation). I knew as I was reading it that a door had opened to a whole new life and language. I walked through that door into a new life that aligned my mind, heart and soul into a meaningful purpose with an ever growing group of people who shared my values.

    I have just finished reading "Reinventing Organisations" by Frederic Laloux and it has inspired in me with the same feeling and knowing. This is a remarkable piece of work that points a way to organisations of the future. It is written in a clear engaging style with many stories that show these ideas already being manifested by pioneering organisations around the world.

    For leaders of any type of organisation who have a sense that the world (business, government and society) is on a tipping point of a whole new paradigm, this book will open your eyes and mind to that possible future. It does not prescribe `an answer' but it may challenge you to make bold new choices.

    Once you know something, you can't un-know it!
