Do you know how the paradigm of doing business will be transformed during the next years?
Are you aware of the power Spiritual Integration has on your business and society at large?
Almost undetected and very silently, a transformation in business is taking place with the potential to become as big as did the transition into the information age, about a decade ago. We are still at the very beginning of what will profoundly change the way business is done in America and the World. Spirituality in Business is going to be the new paradigm and the impact on society at large will be felt anywhere. Those who already recognized the need for this dramatic shift and are taking action upon it are rewarded with benefits beyond measure. This Transition should not be underestimated; it is the cutting edge of business at large.
What happened during the last ten years? Globalization of business, based on the advancement in the information technology, led to an enormous growth of the economies in the former sub-developed countries. India and China (“Chindia”) are moving fast to become new economic superpowers. In the countries of the western world the pressure mounted to become ever more efficient and effective in order to stay competitive. Using technology, processes were described and introduced with the idea to “mechanize” almost any job, and aiming to reduce the failure-rate close to zero. Jobs were described, down to the nitty-gritty detail, taking away the freedom of choice from people, thus reducing them to a kind of robot. Many jobs just became dispensable and were slashed. Other jobs were taken away and “exported” to countries with cheap labor. All this is still done today at an ever-increasing speed. The idea is to do whatever it takes to maintain or increase the profitability thus satisfying the shareholders. Many CEO’s quickly learned the importance this has for their survival and did what was expected no matter what. But what are the consequences of all this? People are getting sick mentally and physically, having to live in this kind of treadmill. A steadily increasing number of managers are suffering the burn-out syndrome and most of the people feel their lives are empty and meaningless.
But now the first visionary leaders became aware what people, including themselves, are longing for. We all want to feel loved and cared for, and 95% of the population in the US believes in a Higher Power, a belief in Spirit. We all are seeking the purpose of life, knowing that there is more than what we see. After all there is a power within us beyond any understanding. People, human beings, are making and carrying out the work thus making progress and profitability possible. Whatever process we might have, without people doing what is necessary, nothing is going to happen at all. In addition, if we treat people as dispensable objects, often calling them a burden, failure in the mid-term is the consequence.
Imagine the power of our consciousness, just look at the findings in science, whether psychology or physics or biology, our scientists agree that taking advantage of this power is the next quantum leap of our society! With the power of consciousness we have access to knowledge so vast, that we have difficulties grasping it at first. People like Albert Einstein understood this a long time ago. He knew that he was connected to something bigger than himself.
What do we need now? We need a new breed of Leaders capable of transcending common knowledge. We need Leaders who can see what others are not capable to perceive. We need Leaders with integrity and respect for the human being, able to step out of their ego and be of service for those they lead. We need leaders embracing this transformation of our society as the opportunity to create harmonic growth for the benefit of all.
To integrate Spirituality in business and society is the key to true wealth. We are Body – Mind – Spirit, and when we take care of all three, there will be no emptiness in our life. How do we do that? First of all we must reach Life Mastery. We must become aware of “who we truly are” and we must understand the spiritual laws. This is the foundation for what I call “Enlightened Leadership” and it is the foundation for Spiritual Growth. Allowing people to grow spiritually is empowering them. And allowing the organization in a business to become aware through people leads directly to the success we are looking for. What else is an organization than the combined consciousness of people within?
Fortunately a few entrepreneurs in America are already aware as said in the beginning of this article. These Leaders have first hand experience on how powerful this transformation is. It seems that America is again the avant-garde in re-shaping the way business is done for the benefit of society, if only enough people will become awake and form the critical mass required.
Will it be easy to achieve? Well, let me say this: It requires a lot of effort to step out of our “comfort-zone” and go into unknown terrain. Learning and training is needed, getting educated and again become self-aware! There will be challenges and obstacles, there will be people trying to hold us back, and even worse, our own ego will try to hold us back. And it requires the spirit of a warrior: A true warrior is the one who conquers himself. But the rewards waiting for us are more than worth it!
Spiritual Integration is the new paradigm for business and society!
