Mind to Heart - How can we use our leadership to heal & transform the world with love, courage, beauty, compassion and positive energy?
Are you still sleepwalking through the addictive & unsustainable consumerist nightmare trying to keep our ultra-capitalist scarcity-based systems intact? Or are you ready to lead with your heart?
It is clear, in order for humanity to create a sustainable pleasant and beautiful future, we need to put more ‘heart’ into everything we do, whether it’s related to our beloved ones, our families and friends, our work and our planet. But how do we do that? As individuals? As a company or organisation? As a society? How do we change our centuries-old ego-centred and patriarchal mindset to a more collaborative, creative and compassionate heartset?
In a recent WEF survey of nearly 21,000 adults in 28 countries, nearly nine out of ten people (86%) want the world to change significantly to become more sustainable and equitable.
Our late-capitalist industrial-technological society of production and consumerism keeps pushing the limits of planet Earth, while most of us agree that economic growth should be at the service of humanity and not a goal in itself.
“The end and the means became confused. Our end should be human and planetary wellbeing and the means should be money and economy and the kind of industry & production. At the moment, the end goal has become production, consumption, economic growth & materialism and the means are humans. We are treating humans as if we are tools, instruments for making profit.” - Satish Kumar interviewed by Russell Brand.
COVID19 has been an unprecedented time, an opportunity for reflection, learning and introspection on how we can envision a different, abundant future based on boundless dreams, on core values and what we really want in life.
It is time for action now. Time for business leaders to make the switch from the centuries-old patriarchal and ego-centric thinking, to evolve into a new kind of celestial being, in harmony with people, prosperity and our planet. Agile, responsible, resilient and confident in what’s to come, contributing to create regenerative, collaborative and co-created systems for their family and children, for their communities and for the benefit of future generations.
Are you ready?
The UnConference
Join us on Sunday, October 25 at 5 PM CET at The UnConference for a session on the topic “Mind to Heart”, together with our incredible guests:
Vuslat DOĞAN SABANCI - Founder VFoundation, Member of the Board at Dogan Group of Companies
Robert C. Wolcott - Co-Founder & Chairman, TWIN Global (The World Innovation Network)
Emilia Roig - Founder & Executive Director at Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ)
Daniel Hulme - CEO of Satalia, leading expert in Artificial Intelligence
Sophia Swire - Impact Investor and social entrepreneur
Joe Crossley - Co-founder Astral Project
Quentin Chambers - Founder and Managing Director at Openlab Digital Ltd
We will ask ourselves: how do we move from a society of control to a society of trust? How do we move from scarcity-based systems and business models to designing abundance systems? How do we move from spending hundreds of years inside a separation mindset to a unity heartset? How do we move from the quantified self (data) to a qualified self (wisdom), from the mind to the heart, from numbers to feelings, from data to emotions?
We will explore how we can build this yet undefined new world we’re co-creating together and how we can regain our sense of being human, to reach our fullest potential.

"The only reason we don't open our hearts and minds to other people is that they trigger confusion in us that we don't feel brave enough or sane enough to deal with. To the degree that we look clearly and compassionately at ourselves, we feel confident and fearless about looking into someone else's eyes." - Pema Chodron
