We are a Community of Professionals creating Compassionate Human Experiences through Product & Organizational Culture Design

The world has changed. VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) conditions dominate all aspects of our world today - the most savvy organizations will respond with products and cultures that generate Flourishing: empathy, compassion, and belonging.

"Soft Skills" are the new essential skills for individuals, and for leadership. They are table stakes for organizational culture.

Compassionate human experience creates ROI. Value is generated when people are psychologically safe and can take risks without harm. Just ask Google.

Compassion & Empathy are scientifically validated. Scientific research has proven that our pro-sociality is inherent to human neurobiology.

We believe the time has come to embrace this understanding of the inherent need of supporting pro-sociality for better business through human flourishing and, more importantly, for a better world.
