As a global community we are confronted with two main challenges, the environmental and the distributional challenge. Both challenges we will only be able to address successfully with the creativity, ingenuity and agility of private sector organizations and for that to happen, business needs to step up its efforts to co-create solutions.

To support businesses in doing so, the Humanistic Management Network is promoting the three stepped approach to Humanistic Management consisting of:

• Unconditional respect for the dignity of life
• Integration of ethical reflection in managerial decision making
• Active and ongoing engagement with stakeholders

These three steps and their application will form the backbone of the symposium so join us for this pathbreaking event at Indus Business Academy (IBA) in Bangalore, India because together we make impact towards a more sustainable and more equitable planet.
