Concern for Humanity (CFH) as a Basis for Holistic Development & Management (HDM)

Globalization and technological changes have created a new configuration of the interdependent world around. If we take a historical perspective on the emergence of the new world, we can identify four revolutions that have been shaping the world around us. These revolutions include, Industrial revolution, Services revolution, Cyber revolution/ Knowledge revolution and New Consciousness revolution. These revolutions have been influencing the management thought as well as management practices across the world. New consciousness is reflecting many 'human concerns' represented by 'concerns of humanity' as well as 'concern for humanity'. These concerns include well being, work life balance, stress, social responsibility, gender issues, environment, ethics and values Challenges of globalization and rise of new consciousness reflecting many new concerns of humanity, are leading us towards new thinking about the world around us. This paper suggests the need for new thinking and a new vision for the world through the idea of Holistic Development & Management (HDM) leading us to a new corporate model based on integration of market, society and self. Three pillars of this new corporate model are, Profit, Corporate Social & Spiritual Responsibility and Good Governance. This new corporate model needs new leadership in terms of Creative, Enlightened and Organic (CEO) leadership
