This book presents the regenerative leadership framework that has
emerged from doctoral research and consulting work with successful
sustainability leaders and their organizations in business,
education, and community. The framework synthesizes the levels of
awareness, the leadership styles and behaviours, and the
organizational arrangements that correlate most significantly
across these domains. Most importantly, the overwhelming majority
of the leaders in this work agree that individual and collective
consciousness development is critical to transforming the culture
of organizations for sustainability and beyond. The term
regenerative has not been chosen arbitrarily, but to provide an
alternative to the notion of sustainability, which many of the
leaders featured here indicate has become insufficient to describe
what needs to be done, economically, socially, and environmentally,
if we are to ensure a flourishing world for present and future
generations. This work in turn has led to the development of the
Regenerative Capacity Index (RCI), a tool designed to assess an
organization's readiness to engage in regenerative practice. From
this evaluation of an organization's regenerative capacity, it
becomes possible to design a strategy for regeneration that
considers all levels of its environmental, social, and economic
impact, both internally and externally, in the local and global
community. Among its major findings, the book argues that the more
evolved sustainability leaders are becoming increasingly
dissatisfied with the construct of sustainability, and indicate the
need for a profound cultural shift towards regenerative human
systems. In this framework, regenerative organizations are driven
by a sense higher purpose, and leadership is exercised horizontally
and collaboratively. Leaders and followers engage in generative
conversations to create desirable futures which are then
'backcasted' to eliminate unanticipated consequences. Throughout,
leaders emphasize the critical importance of engaging in personal
and collective consciousness development or "inner work" in order
to make regenerative practices possible.
