One World in a New World

with Antony Upward — Sustainability Business Architect

Zen leaps onto the unconventional Flourishing Business Canvas to explore the possibilities with Antony Upward. The notion behind the canvas is that everyone matters and the core business mission and vision emerge in conversations that focus around certain aspects of the environment, a holistic environment inclusive of a much larger picture.

A Sustainability Business Architect and Principal of a flourishing enterprise design consultancy, Antony is the founding entrepreneur of Edward James Consulting Ltd. We met during a Thought Leader in Systems Transformation World Café designed and organized by the Institute for Evolutionary Leadership.

His focus is creating sustainable outcomes for enterprises by integrating all three dimensions of sustainability, social/people, environmental/planet and economic/profit, into holistic solutions using business model diagnosis and design. Our discussion highlights the model and takes a deep dive into the world view that is transforming through scientific discoveries.
