If you have been struggling against business models and mindsets that encourage you to restrict, control, and systemize every aspect of your business, leaving little room for creativity and individual contribution to emerge, regenerative design may just be the answer you’ve been looking for!
To learn more, explore the six guiding principles of regenerative business along with additional resources — courtesy of our friends at nRhythm. Join us as we journey toward developing a more regenerative mindset and begin to release new potential.
Explore the 6 Guiding Principles
Regenerative organizations are organized around the following guiding principles. These principles lead us in our design and decision-making, both with our clients and within our organization.
Developmental
Growth and health of all members. We recognize that all members of living systems are in constant growth and development and that the health of system is dependent on the health of its members. We design and operate our organizations in a way that creates the conditions for all members to grow and thrive in conjunction with the health of the system.
Nodal
Decentralized and distributed. We recognize that living systems are not centrally controlled and organized and that resources and functions are distributed throughout the entire system. We design and operate our organizations in a way that does not rely on centralized command and control structures and allows all members of the system to be resourced, empowered decision-makers.
Evolutionary
Maintains a dynamic balance with ever-changing environmental conditions. We recognize that life creates the conditions for life. We design and operate in a way that both responds to and also creates change in our organizational environment to maintain a dynamic balance with constant change.
Uniqueness
Original and the possibility of individual genius. We recognize that each living system and every member of the system is unique and expresses their individual genius. We design and operate our organizations in a way that fosters the expression of the genius of all members within the greater context and purpose of the organization.
Interdependence
Inherent value of all relationships. We recognize that in living systems regeneration, resilience, and abundance emerge from the diversity of interdependent relationships of all kinds in the system. We design and operate our organizations in a way that recognizes the complexity of our deep interdependence with our clients, suppliers, partners, and even competitors.
Holism
The whole is more than the sum of its parts. We recognize that in living systems, regeneration, and life can only be understood when viewing the system as a whole. We design and operate in a way that values the entirety of the system and creates conditions for abundance, resilience, and impact to emerge from the interdependent contributions of all team members, clients, and partners.
