Welcome to the inaugural webcast of Business for Humanity! Join us as we commence our collective journey to unravel the complexities of capitalism and embark on the quest for a better future of work.
Inspired by the visionary research of Kees Klomp and the management bestseller "Thrive - Fundamentals for a New Economy" he co-wrote with Shinta Oosterwaal, we start to explore a number of bold alternatives to traditional and capitalistic paradigms. Prepare to be inspired by a whirlwind of ideas, from Doughnut Economics to Wellbeing Economics, Buddhist Economics, Ecological Economics, Community and Commons-based approaches, and including Degrowth and Feminist Economics. Building further on Kees's thoughts, we sketch out our initial inquiry framework and together with a hundred active participants, we warm up for the dialogues to come!
‘Thrive’ offers readers the fundamentals for a new economy that is rooted in the well-being of humanity and of our planet. This book is a must-read for anyone in search of economic perspectives that contribute to a flourishing world.
