We envision a future in which everyone knows that we are part of an intelligent, living Earth. Our aim is to lay the foundations for a new paradigm of leadership and polycrisis mitigation grounded in kincentric ecology, weaving human beings back into the wider web of life.
Kincentric Leadership is both an emergent and ancient field of practice. Rooted in a deep sense of our belonging with all life, it places humans as part of nature and recognises non-human beings and cycles as bestowed with intelligence, sensibilities, subjecthood and intentionality. Building on kincentric ecology and worldviews, it sees humans as members of communities and systems that reach far beyond our own species, embedding us in extended networks of human and nonhuman kin whose origin, agency and existence are fundamentally linked to ours.
To ensure right relationship with those communities of life requires a deep acknowledgement of our interbeing - and requires us to act as kin.
Leading from that place is about learning to include radically other ways of being, learning from multiple forms of intelligence, and influencing the whole system towards a shared purpose of reciprocal respect and mutual thriving.
Kincentric leadership aims to embed this way of thinking and acting into our strategy and decision-making as we navigate the polycrisis - no matter which field we act within.
