Conscious Organisations
Organisations are complex entities that, over time, reflect the beliefs, values, purpose, and behaviours of all who are part of them. An organisation that wants to grow, thrive, and adapt - however big or small - needs to be able to collaborate well, both internally and externally. And that requires a culture of conscious collaborative attitudes and practices.
​
A truly collaborative organisation is characterised by an open mindset, pervasive trust, shared purpose, adaptability, and a focus on continuous learning and development. These qualities not only foster a positive working environment but also drive innovation, growth and sustainability, making them essential for any organisation aiming to succeed in today's dynamic landscape.
Sounds obvious, right?
​
However, organisations universally face challenges in creating and maintaining this type of culture. Amongst other things, resistance to change, communication barriers, power dynamics, time and resource constraints, and the need to actively build trust and create space for learning and adaptation can get in the way.


Crafting an organisational level of conscious collaboration, where everyone works and learns together, consciously, is the pinnacle of collaborative achievements: the hardest to do and to sustain.
There is no magic formula. No matter what anyone tries to tell you. But we do know that conscious organisations are forged by collaborative people, leaders, teams, and a commitment to ways of working that manifest organisational values and purpose in behaviours at all levels.
