Values-based elevation in Deep Tech
Given the computational power we have available today at a small fraction of the cost of the technologies of the 1980s, we now need to raise our consciousness and responsibility for its use. For this reason, underlying all aspects of Deep Tech — the technology, architectures, applications and business models — lie the universal human values of peace, truth, love, righteousness and non-violence.
It is only when these human values are truly lived that we can design platforms and deep technologies with elevated value propositions that serve to scale and amplify their impact on society and the regeneration of our planet’s natural ecosystems.
In our book Deep Tech and the Amplified Organisation we give leaders a blueprint that shifts people from a mechanistic way of conceiving their organisations to a living systems understanding, empowering them to realise their full potential through the quality of their relationships and their continual ability to evolve in response to changes in their circumstances and environment.
Deep Tech is a way of being which has implications for every aspect of an organisation. We are now experiencing a new industrial revolution where purpose renders our experience of products and services as meaningful; platforms extend our reach into any place; people are the promoters of those brands which make a difference to their lives; and where planetary damage is no longer a price we are willing to pay.
For this reason, we can no longer think of an organisation’s goals in relation to unqualified exponential growth. Organisations in the digital economy will grow through the elevation of their core value propositions, scaling through the power of Deep Tech platforms and the amplification of meaningful solutions.
