The book presents dozens of practical business models and working policies from different industries and countries to move in the direction of a wellbeing economy. Additionally, it discusses the required holistic methodology, which goes beyond the prevailing reductionist science of today. Finally, the book offers a spiritually based ethics that may motivate individuals, organizations, and larger social entities to transform themselves into “planet-positive” change agents.
