🌟 Exploring Conscious Capitalism Through Neuroscience 🌟 ~ #LaraReflections

As I dive deeper into supporting leaders to live purposefully and coherently, I stumbled upon an intriguing piece of research! 💡

Spotlight on Research: "Giving behavior and social decision-making in the age of conscious capitalism: A case for neuroscience."

This study connects the dots between the future of capitalism - whether it's conscious capitalism or stakeholder capitalism - and the notion that altruistic individuals benefit by investing back into their social environments, creating a cycle of mutual benefits. 🔄

What captivated me:

It's grounded on the concept that altruistic individuals not only seek profit but aim to do so by investing in the systems they are part of. This echoes the four pillars of one interpretation of Ikigai:

  1. What the world needs,
  2. What you are good at,
  3. What you are passionate about,
  4. What you can be paid for.

🧠 What's Neuroscience Got to Do With It?

The way we make decisions is deeply linked to how our brain functions - our beliefs and habits embedded within. Understanding the science behind our paths allows us to move from intuition-based to knowledge-based decisions.

Conscious Capitalism vs. Conscious Leadership:

  • Higher Purpose,
  • Culture & Management,
  • Stakeholder Integration,
  • Win-win synergistic approach.

Conscious Leadership involves:

  • Deep Connection,
  • Conscious Vision & Outlook,
  • Conscious & Courageous Actions,
  • Self-transformation.

The leadership culture should be based on trust, authenticity, care, transparency, integrity, learning, and empowerment.

👧👦 Think About It in a Family Context:

Imagine applying these principles within your family, leading by example and integrating schools and teachers to fulfill your family's purpose. How would this impact your children's view?

Everything Is Connected: As human beings, we need to be coherent and intentional across all aspects of life.

Lara Yumi Tsuji Bezerra, Love the brain science angle on conscious capitalism! Maybe with enough MRIs, we can finally figure out what's REALLY going on in our boardrooms.
