Description
The transformation toolkit for your company to make a better future for all.
Every company today wants to be sustainable, but that's no easy feat in our current economic system. How do you redesign an entire organization to not only be economically viable but to also actively contribute to preserving and regenerating our planet? And how do you navigate the inevitable conflicts of interest between profit-seeking and sustainability? In fact, if we really want sustainable economic activity, don't we need to transform the entire economic system?
The answer to the last question is: yes. Nevertheless, individual organizations can already get started on this journey, and the Stellar Approach explains how. It's a practical transformation toolkit and step-by-step roadmap that organizations can use to make their economic activities more sustainable and regenerative. This will not only enhance the future viability of their own business but also contribute to the regenerative transformation of the economy.
Today, every job is a sustainability job, and with the Stellar Approach, anyone can start making a difference right in their own circle of influence.
»An important building block for the transformation to a truly sustainable economy.«
C. Otto Scharmer, Senior Lecturer at MIT and Co-Founder of the Presencing Institute
»To understand how complex living systems actually work, and how we can apply these insights to our economy and to our organizations is the Great Work of our time. >The Stellar Approach< offers a very useful field guide for the journey ahead.«
John B. Fullerton, Founder and President of Capital Institute
»A pragmatic, light and encouraging approach! True sustainability needs many to lead the way - businesses will need to undergo a deep transformation that unlocks ambitious action. >The Stellar Approach< provides the necessary context on interrelationships and important tools for successfully developing regenerative skills across your own organisation. This, alongside a deep redesign of businesses, is an important building block for helping humanity into the Doughnut. This book helps to break down the huge task into feasible steps.«
Erinch Sahan, Business & Enterprise Lead at Doughnut Economics Action Lab (DEAL)
