It’s tempting to wonder if humanity is really evolving, or devolving. Why does it appear that the expressions of higher intelligence and consciousness among individuals don’t as easily or often emerge in collective or community spaces? Humans seem to do better with the “me” space than the “we” space. Perhaps creating a space where new intelligence and capacity can emerge and transform a collective endeavor – while stimulating the best of the individual – needs a new understanding and insight. In this conversation, leaders of We-Flow describe a unique approach to the “we” space that brings together personal development, collective practices, and conscious business. We-Flow works with companies to transform business cultures into creative ecologies where employees feel free to express the natural inner brilliance in themselves and each other. Join Aviv Shahar as he welcomes Stéphane Segatori, Gertraud Wegst, and Diego Garcia Schober to engage in a rich discussion on today’s topic: The Way We Flow.

“What really impacted me was meditation, especially the simplest technical forms of meditation, like mindfulness and body scan. They opened a new world for me and they met some needs that I didn’t know I had.” (12:56) (Stéphane)
“So it was inside of me something that didn’t come together. So I was practicing it, but also not applying it in my professional life. There’s some research that two-thirds of leaders do something like yoga, but they would never take it into the business. So that is coming together so, like I said in the beginning, I’m doing something so that all of me can be here. So I have a meditation technique that I’ve been doing for twenty-two years now.” (20:05) (Gertraud)
“One thing that came about very quickly as we sat together and let things emerge is that human relationships - the human component, the interpersonal space - has a very powerful role in creating human experiences, both productive and transformative human experiences.” (23:47) (Stéphane)
“What if we allow each other to follow what is emerging for us in this moment, our spontaneous needs and actions, both in our external and internal worlds.” (32:07) (Diego)
“When appreciations are not shared, people tend to make assumptions about what other people think about them. And, when there are those assumptions, it is integral to clarify all those misunderstandings.” (39:56) (Stéphane)
