Conscious business — impact and implications for HR and OD

Introduction

This article aims to explore the role of Conscious Business and its implications for Human Resources (HR) and Organisational Development (OD) professionals.

So, first, what do we mean by Conscious Business?

It is, frankly, a rather confusing term. It means different things to different people. For some, it means social enterprise, for others, it has to do with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) or Corporate Responsibility (CR).

For us, it means noticing and becoming more reflexive as we do business.
