Transforming towards Life orients change agents, policy makers,
activists, business leaders, ecologists, economists, and thoughtful
people everywhere to the values and practices needed to build a
world where all can flourish, where 'all' includes all humanity and
all of life's beings. It provides an in-depth understanding of what
it will take, especially in the wake of the global Covid-19
pandemic and the burgeoning climate emergency, to transform today's
growth-and profit-oriented socio-economic systems to life-affirming
ways benefit all rather than just an elite few. Transforming
towards Life argues that to move towards a world in which all can
flourish, we all need to start telling new, yet very ancient,
stories about who we are and why we are here in the world-stories
built on relationship or connectedness, responsibility for the
whole, reciprocity, and equity. We need to incorporate core ideas
about what gives life to systems into all businesses, communities,
governments, and other types of organizations-that is, what helps
them flourish. Business and other institutions need to create
collective value, that is, value for all, and change the mindsets
of people engaged with them so that they in turn can generate new
performance metrics, practices, and power relationships that enable
people everywhere to find their voice and their capacity to
participate actively in bringing about a flourishing world. The
book concludes with thoughts about how each one of us can do our
bit to bring about this necessary transformation.
