 Greetings,







This concept of “The DemoCratic Workplace” is a way to rebuild corporate
credibility, accountability and trust throughout the world. The appeal in
communicating and forwarding these ideas can be seen as one of the ultimate
reactions to the global shift in corporate and economic history of this
tumultuous times inflicted with substantial changes and transformations on
how our corporate systems in society are functioning.



As someone who is operating in corporate life just stated; *“There is a
global shift going on requiring us to rethink the way we have designed our
corporations and economic systems to work. We strongly believe we must
instead expand our thinking around what may be the new models of
organizational design and discover a more enlightened, sustainable and
profitable design that embraces, rather than undermines humanity”*.



The author Wanda Marie Pasz who is a specialist within the area of workplace
democracy is stating: “*It's the first time I've seen someone discuss the
concept of a shared vision of how the workplace should operate and develop a
practical method arriving at that shared vision. I think this is a very
important document and a breakthrough of sorts on the road to workplace
democracy. I'm also thinking that the timing couldn't be better to start
promoting these ideas. The global economic meltdown is going to leave a lot
of enterprises - public and private - looking for new ways of doing things
and so these seemingly radical ideas might just gain some traction. If
enterprises are expected to be mindful of their impact on people and
communities, then people and communities must play a part in deciding how
those enterprises operate, what they do, how they do it... and all of this
means that we will need ways of working together that no longer involve
imposed decisions. The situation seems to cry out for workplace democracy -
the real kind”*.



The intention with the message of “*The Leadingship Approach*” is to arise
and mobilize New Standards of awareness and consciousness in establishing
and implementing alternative options in designing our corporate
organizations to work successfully and profitably. The main key is to create
a New Social Order in working communities that recognizes and embraces the
sovereignty and autonomy of each and every individual human being at work.



I hope for a valuable assistance in promoting the vision presented in the
concept of “The DemoCratic Workplace” by communicating and forwarding this
message throughout relevant operations and networks.
