| Summary: | The age of the Anthropocene, climate change crisis, growing polarizations, and inequities call for a leadership that will enable movement from devastation and degradation to a flourishing earth community with organizations becoming integral members of the earth community. To this end, this paper suggests an ecozoic way of leading rooted in cosmic interdependence, power equity, and our biological reality of love. Our suggestion is based on the idea of the ecozoic by Thomas Berry, a cultural historian, and the concept of the adjacent possible from evolutionary biology. We propose that ecozoic leadership approach is the next adjacent possible to evolve into, in these troubled times. We explore ecozoic leadership in detail and put forward the metaskills required for such leadership. We discuss how ecozoic leadership is in line with the call for organizations driven by the notion of flourishing, thereby moving towards a new Eden and a post-materialistic society. |
