Regenerative management for the circular economy

The challenges of our time are immense: Climate crisis, resource depletion, loss of biodiversity. Many feel overwhelmed by the complexity - worry and paralysis quickly set in. But there is a way to retain the ability to act and optimism: regenerative thinking and management.

The „Regenerate Nature“ principle is one of the central pillars of the circular economy - and it offers far more than just another concept. It is a mindset that takes us from the defensive to the creative power. Instead of just „doing less damage“, regenerative business goes one step further: it restores what has been depleted - and creates economic success in the process.

In this webinar, we would like to show how regenerative approaches can deepen and broaden the transformation to a circular economy - and how they can give you and your organisations renewed hope and impact.

Together we illuminate:

• what lies behind the concept of regenerative management.
• how companies can use regenerative thinking to develop sustainable, systemically effective solutions for a circular economy.
• how the focus on the regeneration of people and nature can be harmonised with economic success.
• what opportunities arise in companies when the circular economy and regeneration are considered together.

We also present practical examples of companies that have already successfully implemented steps towards a regenerative economy - and thus show that transformation is possible.

Why should I take part?
Because hope is not a luxury - it is a necessity for effective design. Regenerative strategies show: We are not victims of the crisis, but creators of a better future. They restore what has been exhausted and thus create real sustainability in the economy and society.

Target group:

The webinar is aimed at specialists and managers, transformation facilitators and project managers who:

• seek new impetus for sustainable and resilient business models,
• maintain and strengthen their ability to act,
