How to Look Deeper
Chris Nichols & Chris Seeley
In November 2009 Chris Nichols and Chris Seeley brought together 20 people from business, NGOs and government, from Europe to Vietnam to Brazil, for a Purpose and Profit workshop: a week of shared inquiry jointly hosted by Ashridge Consulting and Schumacher College, to ask profound questions about business: what is it for, and how might it be re-envisioned?
In this article, Chris Nichols reflects on an inspiring and insightful week and shares his observations about what made possible the challenges and learning that occurred through various ways of exploring the deepest questions. He notes, once again, that learning emerges from the informal and the unintended as well as from carefully crafted contributions and processes.
