The Circle is the most important pattern of the cosmos.

We need a new blueprint for the conduct of business. The evidence is everywhere. As recent events show, too many business organizations operate in ways at odds with our sense of what is ethical, moral, and fair. Many business practices seem to be on a collision course with human welfare and with the precious and fragile ecological environment that sustains us. Furthermore, these behaviors are increasingly costly to the environment, to human well-being, and now—as is becoming evident—to the businesses themselves. Something is terribly wrong. We are desperate for a better way. We need a different foundational structure for business—one that enables us to be effective and, at the same time, supports our humanity. But is such a vision really possible?

All wisdom traditions point toward this fundamental truth. There is a pattern to the flow of the universe: it flows in a circle. It follows that when human activities flow in a circular manner, they receive tremendous support from the universe. Aligning with this flow is key to lasting happiness, success, and peace. This wisdom is applicable to business.

The Circle can help us restructure businesses so that energy continuously flows through them, keeping them vital. It can help us build ethics and sustainable practices into their very foundation. It supports healthy relationships, fostering attitudes of acceptance, mutual respect, and co-operation. As a blueprint, the Circle is scalable, multi-faceted, and endlessly customizable. It's applicable to all stages of building, managing, and evolving a business.

Never before has the Circle been written about as a tool for business management. For the first time, this book brings it into the world of modern commerce.
