Spark cover

A fresh, sustainability-focused take on building organizations.

In a world facing growing social, political and environmental challenges, our organizations are no longer serving us well. This book offers a fresh framework for rethinking organizations. It is built on four generative dynamics—purposing, democratizing, cooperating and commoning— underpinned by a planetary mindset. Grounded in real-world examples and the latest research, it explores how these dynamics can spark new modes of organizing. With a focus on overcoming barriers and inspiring change, it’s a compelling call to reimagine organizations for a future that sustains people and the planet.

“Sparking regenerative, whole-systems ways of organizing for flourishing organizations on a flourishing planet! That’s what is needed and exactly what Spark offers.” Sandra Waddock, Boston College Carroll School of Management
“We all want to do better. We all must do better. Yet here we still are. Spark offers a useful framework to reorganize our efforts so that we can, finally, do better.” Michael L. Barnett, Rutgers Business School
