We help you on your journey towards becoming a regenerative business.

REGENERATIVE BUSINESS COMPASS

The Regenerative Business Compass is for leaders and teams seeking to bring more health, vitality, and motivation into their organizations.

The retreat brings together presentations, guided conversations, and interactive exercises. We designed this retreat to promote self-discovery, experimentation, and shared insight. What’s more, we let nature be our guide in finding systemic solutions to your challenges.

Today’s management thinking is misaligned with how nature works.

Business as usual is going out of business.

Today’s business models face several challenges from slowing economies, new technologies, industry disruptors, and shifting consumer attitudes. Sparkling creativity, a whole new growth mindset, and a business strategy and culture based on regenerative principles, are now vital ingredients for any future business success, as business as usual is going out of business.

This retreat is the opportunity to start leading the change. It is designed to guide any company team or manager committed to becoming a truly positive part of the solutions needed for a sustainable future for all. You will be inspired to challenge both yourself and your organization, find new vitality and purpose, redefine values and growth through regenerative practices.

The retreat will cover:

With this exercise, we will look at how your business is part of a place, of different communities, and of natural ecosystems. What is the quality of the relationships in your networks? Where is tension? And where is more attention needed to contribute to the health and thrivability of your business?

Today’s world of business and work is no longer a fit in times of multiple, interconnected crises. Regenerative Leadership invites us to lead in the inner, outer, and ecosystemic dimensions of change. Learn how to lead with greater alignment and energy by attuning to the Logic of Life.

We will look at the resilience of your business model facing today’s multiple challenges – and how to move beyond small improvements and fixes. Instead, we’ll ask where the potential for breakthrough is highest in our ecosystem – where our time and energy are actually needed.

Through practical exercises, you’ll learn how nature’s wisdom and intelligence can help you to see your relationship with all life on earth. We will look at what the land, the forests, and ecosystems hold for the questions you have for your business and leadership development. Which patterns, cycles, and concrete solutions can you find?

We’ll explore very practical examples of how nature’s way of solving problems has inspired and guided the development of business solutions and business models. From biomimicry architecture to reinventing what products can do for health, waste minimization, and durability. You will leave with frameworks and examples to apply in your business. 

Our approach

The retreat will bring presentations, guided conversations, and interactive exercises together. More than than just transmitting knowledge, the retreat is designed to promote self-discovery, experimentation, and shared insight.

We let nature be our guide to find systemic solutions to our challenges.



The sessions will be organized outdoors if the weather allows. The benefits of having meetings outdoors are numerous. As documented, for instance, by the University of Michigan, nature provides a greater receptiveness to new ideas and behaviours, and the ability to tackle things in new and creative ways. 

 We place a high value on participants contributing ideas and expressing themselves in an authentic, natural way. We believe that the deepest insights emerge from moments of silence, from deep questions held in groups, and from careful observation of what is happening around us.
