How the “DNA” of civilisation defeats efforts to achieve sustainability and long term corporate survival

Sustainability

Speaker: Will Sutherland

Date :  Friday 13th September

Time:  6:30pm-8:00pm

Location:  HKGCC Conference Room , 22/F, United Centre 95 Queensway (Admiralty MTR Station)

All human action and decision take place within a powerful cultural framework made up from institutions, habit and law/regulation. The familiarity of these constraints often makes them invisible. As a result social and behavioural scientists have promoted disciplines such as economics, political science and psychology as a means of explaining how people behave. The speaker will argue that both at National and Corporate levels this ignorance of cultural realities leads to many unwanted and potentially life threatening consequences. The solution lies in the new and (as yet) undeveloped science of “cultural engineering”.

Our Speaker Will Sutherland, from the UK worked both as a civil servant and then management consultant before becoming an author on, and living exponent of, self-sufficiency and sustainability.

As this is a special event , red wine, soft drinks and snacks will be served.

The event is free for HKKMS members and $300 for non-members..

Speaker – Will Sutherland, author of “The Councillor’s Handbook” and joint author of “The New Complete Book of Self Sufficiency” published by Dorling and Kindersly

Will Sutherland has had a life long interest in the processes which lead to the collapse of human civilisations. After studying Mathematics and Law at Cambridge University he spent 10 years in the Whitehall Civil service before moving on to become a Senior Consultant with Ernst and Young. In 1992 he played a key role in the creation of the “Alternative Treaties” written by over 175 worldwide NGOs after the first Earth Summit and now posted on the United Nations website. After this he left the business world and moved to Ireland where he grew most of his own food and began to teach the skills of “self-sufficiency”. He has talked and written widely on the institutional processes which create a cultural prison preventing the achievement of sustainability.
