Vitoria-Gasteiz, Basque Country, Spain

Durante muchos años estuve en el carro del sistema imperante, hasta que un día me caí del caballo y me di cuenta de lo mal que estaba haciendo las cosas. Ese día me comprometí a poner toda mi experiencia como responsable de producción, responsable de calidad, directora comercial y directora de recursos humanos (para mi Gente), al servicio de la sociedad de forma ética y defendiendo los valores que hasta entonces inconscientemente había insultado.  Ahora acerco el Bien Común a las Organizaciones uniendo Personas, creando estrategias de venta honestas y utilizando métricas de impacto social ambiental (RSE, ECG, B Corp, etc.). Especializado en proyectos de la Base de la Pirámide (BOP), también hago un poco de guerra como orador y formador.  Es un honor para mí ser cofundador de BIKOnsulting. He sido editor de EBC en la Cátedra UNESCO de Desarrollo Sostenible UV, docente-editor de cursos de consultoría de EBC. Soy auditor y consultor de organizaciones para la “Economía del Bien Común”, también “Change Maker” B Corp 2019-2020 y consultor certificado para B Corp Europa.

Curitiba, Paraná, Brasil

I am a psychologist and Gaiana. My concerns started with the realization that economic growth was not leading us to a place of social equality or mental health. We are getting sicker each day and not solving the root of the problem. So today I host an online learning community that brings together people interested in changing the paradigm of leadership, management and economics for a world that takes care of people and the regeneration of the Earth. This year we organized a facilitated study group of the Doughnut Economics in Brazil with more than 200 participants.

Greenwich

Member of the Women’s Equality Party, which has decided to put Doughnut Economics at the heart of its policies.

Durham, England, United Kingdom

As a senior member of Oxford University, I contributed to establishing the Centre for Environmental Change and, following a meeting with Anita Roddick, proposed the MSc in Environmental Change & Management which is still running today. At Wolfson College I worked with social psychologist Michael Argyll who proved that "greed does not lead to joy" and introduced me to Fox's research on power & trust relations. Inspired by Fox and Roddick's "Body and Soul", I initiated Durham University's Centre for Applied Ethics and Relational Studies aimed at drawing together "Business as Unusual" concepts , e.g. "Complex Responsive Process Theory of Relating", the "Triple Bottom Line" and "After Virtue" - all in tune with Doughnut Economics. I initiated Business Ethics teaching, on which Durham Business School's current ERS strategy was founded, contributed to developing HEFCE's Sustainable Development Strategy, and now teach Corporate Responsibility to undergraduates at Durham Business School.

Salt Lake City, Utah, United States of America

I retired early from my career in technology sales.  The culture of corporate America was no longer working for me.  Specifically the idea that there is a moral space, where as long as you are not breaking the law, your only responsibility was to shareholder value and pursuit of profit.  Full acceptance of this leaves little space to connect with your values and principles.  As I dug deeper into the concepts of Doughnut Economics the decision to retire from my professional job was a no-brainer.  It was a purposeful transition from years of accumulating, to focusing on how to thrive so that I could live the concepts.  This in turn has freed up my time and attention capacity to make sense of the current situation of the world, understand the underlying systems, and determine how I can contribute to help make positive change.  I came to DEAL to find guidance on how to take action.
