Think we forget sometimes, we’re just a species that inhabits the world & still learning…

Like the dinosaurs before us. It’s the turn of humans to be custodians of this great planet.

Are we learning from our mistakes & doing a great job?

If I think of the world as 1 big business (as that’s the way my mind works) I’d probably say no.

Yes, we’ve made some major technological advances, improved life expectancy for many & increased the standard of living for billions.

But globally what are we not learning, which our own business teams deliver each & every day. Like:

• How to co-exist together
• Work together to solve problems
• Help someone who’s in need
• Share problems with one another
• Stop fighting between ourselves
• Take responsibility for our own actions
• Know that everybody is the same inside
• Climate change is everyone’s responsibility

I believe. If we could get world governments & the global population to work together (guided by an agreed set of values), many of the planets major problems can be solved. Things like:

• Climate change
• Poverty
• Disease
• Clean water
• Corruption
• Drugs
• Living conditions
• Violence
• Even wars

As business leaders, we expect our teams to work together in a way that benefits everyone. Is to too much to expect governments & the global population to learn that it’s time to do the same?

…yes, it’s a pipe dream. But it’s my pipe dream.
