Spark: Igniting Organizational Change Through a Planetary Mindset

By Marc Thompson

A fresh, sustainability-focused take on building organizations.

In a world facing growing social, political and environmental challenges, our organizations are no longer serving us well. This book offers a fresh framework for rethinking organizations. It is built on four generative dynamics--purposing, democratizing, cooperating and commoning-- underpinned by a planetary mindset. Grounded in real-world examples and the latest research, it explores how these dynamics can spark new modes of organizing. With a focus on overcoming barriers and inspiring change, it's a compelling call to reimagine organizations for a future that sustains people and the planet.
