What if changing how we work could make our economies work for us? For many of us today, work feels like a fever dream. We battle our way through overwhelm, stress, and an impossible to-do list--and remain financially strapped. All the content we consume seems to be telling us: we are the problem. If we just used the right time-blocking app, or managed our finances better, or learned to meditate, or... But what if work feels this way because it's a direct result of how our current economy is designed, going back to the very roots of our current society itself? And what if work could be profoundly different? What if we told you that there are teams, businesses, organizations, and individuals who are transforming their work to co-create life-affirming innovation and success? What if we told you those involved in these breakout cases describe their work with words like lightness, liberation, momentum, self-knowledge, calm, meaningful, community, and even joy - all while outperforming their mainstream counterparts? Based on seven years of research and co-learning with dozens of these breakout individuals, teams, and organizations, Beloved Economies: Transforming How We Work offers readers an imagination-expanding vision of what work can be. The book outlines seven practices that any individual, team, or enterprise can embark on now, to transform how we work and build economies that are healing, just, and wise. Beloved Economies reveals that it is not what we do, but how we do it that can be our most powerful lever for building economies that we can all love.
