We Are All Stewards on Spaceship Earth
| |
| Science is confirming what wisdom traditions have pointed to for thousands of years: that everything around us is part of a living universe, and that we are only stewards of whatever we think we “own.” As the old economy of fear and greed is crumbling, a new economy of partnership is being born.

Appreciation As A Fundamental Awareness
| |

Lesson #1: Build a Brand with No Bounds

Lesson #2: Make Sure You Are Clear On Your Purpose
| |
| It is said that those who know Simon Fuller either love him or hate him. On the more favourable side, his role in the music industry has been compared to the late Brian Epstein, the Beatles’ manager responsible for the great British Invasion.

| Fuller was born the son of an RAF pilot who later became a teacher who was passionately enthusiastic about founding schools. It was that passion that took the Fuller family to West Africa.
