Harmonizing Purpose and Profit: Inspiring Entrepreneurs to Drive Impactful Business Performance with Patric Fransen

Harmonizing Purpose and Profit: Inspiring Entrepreneurs to Drive Impactful Business Performance with Patric Fransen
Welcome to the LIVEforward Institute Living Room Conversations!Our guest, Patrick Fransen: "I am Patrick and for 35 years I specialised myself in not being myself, which was quite a painful experience. This resulted in, among others, a national windsurf championship, an engineering degree, building a management consulting company and selling it for a multi-million amount to a large multinational. Despite these perceived successes I remained burdened with an unfulfilled, empty feeling. The insight that I was pursuing an outside illusion instead of the higher purpose that is running through me, made me shift radically to a conscious, purpose driven mission to create a business world where everyone can be 100% themselves, where entrepreneurs create massive positive impact on society without sacrificing on their personal life nor on company profitability. At www.Pebblewave.be we are creating an ecosystem of companies where the leaders have heartfelt chosen to go this path. If you are an entrepreneur and want to know how you can realise your purpose this way, connect and we'll figure it out together."We have seen the catalytic power of conversations in the work that we do, as well as the impact that it brings to our world.

From TEAL to THE WEEK with Frederic Laloux

From TEAL to THE WEEK with Frederic Laloux
Our guest, Frederic Laloux is the author of the book Reinventing Organizations, which took three years to research. It has not only become a global bestseller but is also considered by many to be the most influential management book of the decade, inspiring countless organizations to adopt radically more soulful and purposeful management practices. This is probably one of the biggest inspirations for the founding of LIVEsciences. Laloux has said, “There’s something that is transformative about these new management practices that they also fundamentally change the nature of the business itself, and the nature of society...” The book has turned into a movement, with many organizations in many different industries deciding to make the leap to “teal”. After the phenomenal success of the book, Laloux didn’t rest on his laurels – he launched a series of 130 videos titled, “Insights for the Journey” that builds on the book and focuses on the question, “how can existing, traditionally-run organizations make the leap?” There’s not much we can say about him that hasn’t been said before, but we will say that we’re all excited to hear about his bold and innovative new project – The Week. We’re extremely honored to have Frederic Laloux as our very special LIVING ROOM CONVERSATIONS guest, hosted by Timm Urschinger. We have seen the catalytic power of conversations in the work that we do, as well as the impact that it brings to our world. Our Living Room is a space for us to connect, to explore thoughts and learnings, in a relaxed and very human way.
