Business Education and Consciousness
 

Introduction 

The Center for Business Consciousness Program is a revolutionary educational curriculum that brings together diverse thought and cultures to forge a new language and models for the business world.

Executives of every stripe acknowledge that the world is facing a multiplicity of crises, ranging from the collapse of the world financial system to cataclysmic climate issues, from self-destructive energy policies to the demise of standards for executive accountability. In the midst of these pressures there is an ever rising chorus of public demands that businesses must not only thrive but become responsible corporate citizens, both locally and on a global scale. 

While short term cash flow is the acknowledged foundation to a business’s future, it must be balanced by long term sustainability that looks over the horizon to encompass a broad vision that includes global economic and ecological realities as well as those of the local community.

While the challenges may be formidable, they are not insurmountable. However, to succeed it will take new forms of management, lead by visionaries who are willing to look for creative answers in how we think, manage, and ultimately how we lead.

The Center for Business Consciousness  (CBC) is the developing innovative leadership programs to meet this emerging demand.

The Center for Business Consciousness is affiliated with and based upon the principles of The California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS).  Located in San Francisco The California Institute of Integral Studeis has always been at the forefront of what is possible. The Center’s foundational premise is the blending of traditions from both Eastern and Western civilizations. CISS is the academic organization that inspired or was the basis of most other East-West programs. 

As an accredited graduate school CIIS offers programs in Psychology, Transformative Leadership, East-West Studies, Wellness,  and many other fields that draw upon its historic traditions of merging multiple and often contradictory ideas into an integrative whole. The result has been an important body of work that has been influencing  world thought and culture across a wide range of disciplines.

Through The Center for Business Consciousness , CIIS is now offering its innovative programs to the world of business.
