Community Empowerment: New Horizon for Self-Actualization through Empathy Theories and Methods in International Perspective
The dominance of scientific materialism and reductionism, so powerful over the last five centuries, is beginning to look fragile. We explore the concept of connectedness as a central theme of bringing about a coherence and integration of the power and knowledge of Science together with the energy and wisdom of empathy to a new level of transformational empowerment of humankind.
Further, we examine the potential of the connectedness with Spirit to empower science to a new level of accomplishment and understanding.
It has become popular to call for community and project team empowerment. However, our research shows how this competes with another popular concept, project management, particularly in modern complex projects. Implementing both philosophies leaves the professionals with an irreconcilable dissonance.
We suggest a number of steps this implies, including developing project management frameworks that inform teams about likely cross-impacts, limiting team empowerment, and allowing teams to influence decisions.
Please join us to empower yourself!
