Transforming Business & Education Week

Overview

In a time of polycrisis, institutions and systems of education and business are under pressure to adapt. Leadership requires a different paradigmatic framework as the world is struggling to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals. This conference brings together leaders in various fields such as social innovation, evolutionary science, and humanistic leadership that work to transform our current economic system to become life conducive.

Audience: Innovators, academics, and leaders in business, higher education, communities, governments, and everyone else working to transform economic systems

Schedule

• Day 1: Research. The week will begin with a series of research workshops to develop and co-create papers that advance new paradigm thinking about foundations for economics, business, and education.
• Day 2: Curriculum. Innovative and transformational curricular approaches will be explored and shared via a series of workshops, presentations, and convenings.
• Day 3: Partnerships. Leaders from major corporations, social entrepreneurs, and academics will come together to connect, explore, and build cross-sector partnerships.
• Day 4: Individual Leadership (parallel events - separate registration may be required). Workshops and sessions focused on building individual capacity to effect change within and without institutions.
• Day 5: Collective Leadership (parallel events - separate registration may be required). Workshops and sessions focused on transforming teams and building collective capacity to effect change.

Experience: The experience we create is a seamless support for research, partnerships, pedagogy, individual leadership, and team transformation. We build community intentionally with events and engagement possibilities before, during, and after the conference.
