This report presents the background study in the sphere of business. It outlines the path toward a Civilization of Oneness with Diversity as it is being shaped and advanced by business. It offers clear evidence that the purpose and organizing principles of business are evolving from a worldview of tribalism, scarcity and mindlessness to one of interconnectedness, respect for all living things, and the divine spirit of Oneness.
In this study, we show:
• The role of what we term positive institutions to awaken the divine spark in the spirit of business
• Generative organizing to awaken the divine spark in the spirit of organizational citizens
• Benevolent leadership to awaken the divine spark in the spirit of business leaders
• Business as a force for good: why and how companies engage in positively contributing to society and earth.
Our findings are built on a theory construct developed in earlier research by the authors: the arc of interconnectedness that highlights the evolution of business towards oneness. The study identifies a profound shift in the evolutionary process of business. We call this shift the ontological threshold because it embraces a deep transformational change in the underlying logic of business to one that contributes to awakening the divine spark of humanity.
