umair haque

the meaning organization
1) significance: the deep, enduring, human worth of a thing to everyone.
2) outcomes thinking: seeking not merely to satisfy consumers, but to better them.
3) harmony: Companies often put financial interests first. A Meaning Organization puts people first, on an equal footing with communities, society, and tomorrow’s generations.
4) purpose: What, beyond profit, knits the company, shareholders, individuals, and society together? What is the common goal that is meaningful to all and that everyone can be enriched by?
5) peace: become masters of economic nonviolence. They must master not just free trade, but fair trade; not just enterprise, but ethics; not just innovation, but integrity.
6) love: Nonviolence, purpose, harmony, and impact can’t be created by de-skilled, frightened, disengaged workers, bought and sold in bulk by the lowest bidder. Nor can they be created by calculated, soulless talent
7) ambition: How are we to change the world radically for the better?

let's give ourselves permission... let's free ourselves... to do things that matter..
