Our guest, Dr. Ina Gjikondi, brings ecocentrism into the workplace, showing how nature itself can enhance performance in business and help us reach our goals and vision. Ecocentrism, as she defines it, is the understanding that nature holds agency and that all beings and elements, human and non-human, exist together in a delicate balance. In other words, we are collaborators with the earth itself.
That shift changes everything. Instead of treating nature as a backdrop, we can recognize it as an active partner with wisdom to offer. Yes, that walk in the forest, or even hugging a tree, just might give you the answer to the issue you have been struggling with. Who knew that your circle of collaborators might reach past people to include the natural world?
Hosted by Christine Merser, co-author of Circles of Collaboration, this conversation with Dr. Gjikondi highlights groundbreaking research in ecocentrism that is creating inroads into how we work, connect, and solve problems. Dr. Gjikondi is Director of Learning Innovation & Strategic Growth at the Center for Excellence in Public Leadership (CEPL) at George Washington University and founder of the One Humanity Lab.
