One World in a New World with Antony Upward – the Flourishing Business Canvas

Zen leaps onto the unconventional Flourishing Business Canvas to explore the possibilities with Antony Upward. A Sustainability Business Architect and Principal of flourishing enterprise design consultancy, Antony is the founding entrepreneur of Edward James Consulting Ltd.

His focus is creating sustainable outcomes for enterprises by integrating all three dimensions of sustainability, social/people, environmental/planet, and economic/profit, into holistic solutions using business model diagnosis and design. Our discussion highlights the model and takes a deep dive into the world view that is transforming through scientific discoveries.

Mr. Upward has thirty years of management consulting experience focused on a full range of business process and information systems projects for a variety of clients. In 2010 he returned to university full-time, completing his graduate thesis in Strongly Sustainable Business Model Design in 2013. Mr. Upward is working with a global group of co-authors on a crowd-funded collaborative book to bring his new better strongly sustainable business model design tool to the world (www.FlourishingBusiness.org).

Our conversation brings to light the struggle to create conversations that matter FIRST in the development of flourishing businesses. It’s people that matter in the matter of business. Their ability to communicate effectively and with passion and purpose are primary components of agile business today.

Zen says his life has been spiced with personal and professional opportunities that came through his nurturing of faith, love, and trust that dreams do come true. What built that faith, love, and trust began as an orphan told of his adoption just after his 4th birthday. The spice continued with experiences that span the gamut of the paranormal and include off-planet engagements over a lifetime. Can you say outlier? With two Master’s degrees and multiple certifications as well as an interesting professional history (ZenBenefiel.com) his passion turned to transformational life coaching just after the turn of the century, having become a rather astute cognitive scientist with extraordinary insight and intuition, he transformed Be The Dream (founded in 1988) from the intention of bridging best business and spiritual practices to a reality that has served hundreds. A decade and a half of writing was filled with cathartic wonders. His gifts are useful for Team Partnering as well, facilitating people, places, and things to build mega-structures with pre-construction teambuilding sessions. Divorced with four children, 9 grandkids, and 2 great-grandsons, he remarried after 30 years. Luba is from St. Petersburg, Russia, and their meeting, both agree, was a cosmic conspiracy of destiny, spiritual compatibility, and future vision of a newly ordered world in harmony with natural order. After 47 years of preparation, and stepping into what feels like fulfilling destiny, he recently became the Executive Director of the Live and Let Live Global Peace Movement that is inspiring the world now. Zen's Book "Navigating Holistic Growth: The Servant Leader's Guide," demonstrates, true leadership is not about authority, but about fostering an environment of growth, understanding, and cooperation. This guide is an essential resource for anyone looking to make a meaningful impact, through self-discovery and by empowering those around them.
