THE POWER OF PAUSE

 

Humanity has been given a once-in-a-lifetime chance to rethink and rearchitect the way we live and work. With record levels of burnout, mental exhaustion and anticipatory anxiety about the future, meaning has become the new money, with millions opting to quit their jobs in search of it.

 

The pandemic and mounting global crises have exposed the cracks in the prevailing paradigms of individual self-interest, zero sum competition, and extractive forms of profit-maximization that build wealth at the expense of people and planet. The old systems are just not working anymore. Yet, the biggest risk we face is not the uncertainty of the old world crumbling - it’s meeting the new world with yesterday’s mindsets. 

 

The Great Reflection Summit is a global community of renowned visionaries, conscious leadership pioneers, and innovators gathering annually to use the power of pause to refresh, reenergize, and reimagine the more beautiful world we know is possible.

 

Join a wildly inspirational community event to unlock your power of purpose, fulfillment, and joy.

Meet The Inventors, Innovators, and Conscious Leadership Pioneers - Building The Future.
