Conscious/Teal Businesses & NVC’s Role

By

What exactly is a “conscious” business or corporation? It has nothing to do with a product, necessarily, so we’re not talking about health companies that sell vitamins or yoga packages. Listen in to find out the three main components of a conscious business, spanning structural and cultural pieces, and how NVC supports various aspects of these alternative business models.

We’ll also begin to talk about ways you can begin bringing in certain qualities to a more traditional, hierarchical business. It’s time to go “teal”, folks. We’ll discuss what that means, as well, a la Wilber, Graves, Beck, and Laloux – you’ll be googling some of these names soon enough.
