Flourishing Society Framework

Getting beyond Visioning …
• Civic Engagement & Policy Design
• Strategic Design through structured dialogues
(Dialogic Design)
• High quality engagement, consensus, mapping of
challenges & agreement on leverage issues
• We end there. How do we move to action?
• How do we push/pull/define the “business case?”
• How might we formulate strategic pathways?

– Defining Flourishing as shared aim - Idealization
– Adapt co-creative business model thinking
– Incorporates most of the systemic design principles
Future Outcomes

– Primary aim is redirective, eliciting multiple perspectives for
governance proposals.

“Caring for ecosystems demands far-sightedness, since no
one looking for quick and easy profit is truly interested in
their preservation. But the cost of the damage caused by
such selfish lack of concern is much greater than the
economic benefits to be obtained. Where certain species are
destroyed or seriously harmed, the values involved are
incalculable. We can be silent witnesses to terrible injustices
if we think that we can obtain significant benefits by making
the rest of humanity, present and future, pay the extremely
high costs of environmental deterioration.”
Pope Francis, Encyclical Letter Laudato Si , June 19, 2015

A Vision for the Future of Business*
We imagine a world where business
• No longer merely attempts to do less harm
• Strives toward the possibility of flourishing
• Creates “tri-impact” by being tri-profitable
Financially rewarding
Socially beneficial
Environmentally regenerative
* Increasingly shared: see recent Flourishing & Prosperous Business
Conference (www.globalforumbawb.com), the book
“The Flourishing Enterprise” by Laszlo, Brown, Ehrenfeld et. al. and
the Future Fit Business Benchmark (www.FutureFitBusiness.org)

Sustainable Business Model Group

A business model is a description of how an organization
defines and achieves success over time.
New mode of co-creative planning & design
• Consistent with Reflexive Modernization
(Ulrich, Law, Beck, Giddens, Ozbekhan)
• Every stakeholder has perspective, values, relations
And opportunity to contribute to evolutionary design
• Creates “tri-impact” by being tri-profitable
– Financially rewarding
– Socially beneficial
– Environmentally regenerative

• A common language to collaboratively sketch,
prototype, design, share, measure, diagnose & tell
stories about a flourishing business model
• Based on 3 years of graduate research + 3 years of

A Community Business Model?
• Can we create a process for participatory
systemic civil planning ?
• Could we adapt the FBC as a planning tool?
• Would a canvas be sensitive to capturing
stakeholders & community proposals?
• Do the Flourishing distinctions provide
guidance for a sustainability case?

Using the Framework…
1. Generate responses on notes that propose ideas & actions
toward ecological balance in your issue.
2. Start by defining Goals (idealized outcomes) for your group’s
issue. Generate Value Co-Creations that might achieve these
goals. Iterate between these two at first to change Goals/Value.
3. Unlike a business, Stakeholders include broad sectors of society.
Start defining those with influence or who benefit from the
change you propose. Align these to Relationships.
4. Then extend ideas to the adjacent entities & questions.
5. Create a narrative for the proposal that makes a case for the
plan.
6. We’ll share & circulate. (Take the maps with you to keep
working on them. See if other people join you.)

Concluding Questions
• How might this model enable conversations for
Flourishing?
• What are the relationships between business &
social ecologies in a place?
• How might we get started with this approach in
policy debates?
• How could this become a practical, usable model
for engagement?
