From I to We: Impact Management is the Management of Life towards Holistic Well-being and Flourishing

The Era of Well-being is here, and it falls upon us all to awaken to and align ourselves with the flow of history and time. Impact management is the management of life towards flourishing and well-being. It refers to our ability to direct our intention and attention towards evolving in the direction of our challenges, towards well-being and happiness. Recognizing that we are an inseparable part of a collective system, we must come to embrace and celebrate our life purpose which is to add value and impact, so that all systems are well. Such recognition then brings us on a journey from the “I” into the “We”. When “I am We”, that is when I am truly well. In this article, Chavalit Frederick Tsao together and six esteemed contributors detail how well-being and happiness can lead to a life-centered organization and to business flourishing.
