Hello!
And thank you for dropping by.
Really. We appreciate your time + honest interest.
So thank you!
I am JP, a father of three, an author of five books (and counting!) on leadership and integral thinking and a hopeless dreamer-turned-CEO/entrepreneur.
Our company is called Integral Foresight Finland.
Our vision is a of a world where organizations do not fail and people in those organizations do not suffer due to short-sighted thinking.
Our mission is to help organizations develop wisdom cultures by applied integral foresight.
- Applied = practical, usable, simple
- Integral = many perspectives are taken into account
- Foresight = intentional creation of a desired future result that is good, true and beautiful for all stakeholders.
That said, I guess we are in the business of reducing business suffering and increasing organizational happiness.
We work with a wide network of integral experts from around the globe.
A brief history of me, being the “brains” behind the company:
- I have studied comparative religion, psychology and philosophy in the University of Turku, Finland
- I have lived one year on a lighthouse island of Utö – the farthest place from mainland Finland – with my family
- My PhD dissertation is about the American philosopher Ken Wilber, the “father of integral thinking”
- I am also trained by Integral Coaching Canada as an Integral Associate Coach (in the first ever European group)
- Entrepreneur by nature = unfit for real work
- As a 12-year-old, I appeared in national television as a self-professed “horror movie expert”
We love helping leaders and organizations gain competitive developmental advantage through deeper thinking + wider visions.
Let me know how we can help you!
Best wishes,
- – JP jakonen
