What design, architecture and development model do we use to create alignment and synergy in programmes and organizations for manifesting Peace, Prosperity & Planet?
-
How do design and implement strategies that realize full potential and inter- dependence in and between the Peace, Prosperity & Planet?
-
How do we break the silos, scatter and fragmentation when we work on the between and within organizations, sectors and themes? How can we create trans-disciplinary strategies, projects and programmes with results for the Peace, Prosperity & Planet?
-
Why does the world continue to be challenged by so much injustice, social exclusion, inequities, and disparities?

Why is there a growing intolerance to differences and diversity?
Answering these questions, will require us to shake off the fragmented approaches of the past and evolve new ways of being, thinking and acting that fundamentally transforms the theories and nature of the current development practices
.
The Radical Transformational Leadership 2.0 (RTL2.0) programme on Peace, Prosperity & Planet is designed to unleash the full potential and ethical leadership in ourselves and inspire others to do so, to transform our lives, our work and our society. The word radical means “root.” The Oxford English Dictionary defines radical as “relating to or affecting the fundamental nature of something.” We are using the word radical in this sense—the root of our being, our innate self, which manifests when our ego takes a back seat.
The programme provides you with a robust development model along with templates and tools for whole-systems change, expand your reach and scale impact. It offers opportunities to established or budding leaders from the public, private, corporate and non-profit organizations to build results/action-based alliances and create paradigmatic shifts in realizing and achieving the Peace, Prosperity & Planet with equity.
​
BACKGROUND
​​​
RTLWorks is committed to realizing Peace, Prosperity & Planet and the Sustainable Development Goals through constellation of individuals and organizations committed to well-being for all.
Everybody can choose to be a transformational leader and contribute to Peace, Prosperity & Planet everywhere. This needs new transformations that source our inner capacities and new design to make a difference. This implies that we can shift unworkable cultural norms and systems to generate extraordinary results.
For the very first time there is worldwide agreement on the SDGs, with equity and inclusion as its foundation; these apply across governments, countries, business and civil society and across all sectors. It has the coming together of environmental, social and economic dimensions connecting Peace, Prosperity & Planet under one umbrella.
The concepts of Peace, Prosperity, and Planet are foundational pillars of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Peace is vital for stability, promoting social justice, human rights, and the rule of law, which are essential for any nation’s development. Prosperity highlights the need for inclusive economic growth that benefits all people while reducing inequalities. It calls for fostering economic opportunities, education, and innovation to ensure that the wealth generated contributes to well-being for everyone. The Planet focuses on protecting the environment, combating climate change, and preserving biodiversity to safeguard natural resources for future generations. Together, these three pillars we need to build a world where peace, economic stability, and environmental health go hand-in-hand, ensuring a sustainable and thriving future for all. It is a great opportunity to work on inter-dependent strategies for connecting Peace, Prosperity & Planet, provided we use an aligned set of design templates, architecture, and operational strategies.
We have talked and debated social, environmental and economic challenges facing humanity and our planet for over seven decades now; however, for the first time, we have the potential of establishing an equitable world with purposeful goals and the ways to accomplish them. What we never had – and now do - is a concrete strategic model, tools, templates and instruments for addressing these challenges.
​
Solutions lie in our capacity to design and implement large scale programs in society and in institutions in a more sustainable and equitable manner. To do this, we must locate new opportunities; integrate short- and long-term thinking and harness knowledge and technology to create new patterns and systems by embodying values, respecting everyone and embracing diversity. This calls for creating cultural transformation that is large scale and sustainable through generative conversations and action that enhance wellbeing and equitable growth of all.
Its calls for Humans need to get smarter about humanity, about the collective us with Humanity Intelligence which extends the principles of cognitive and emotional intelligence to define and learn this new formation of intelligence. Simply put, the task of Humanity Intelligence is to create the capacity of individuals and the human collective to embrace the universal values of dignity, equity, and compassion. By doing so, humans can change systems, bring peace, spread prosperity, and make the earth flourish. No small task, but a possibility. Better People, Better Design, Better Planet: that is the uniqueness in our work, our goal for Humanity Intelligence. If the arc of history is to move toward problem solving at larger scales, we need to adopt evolutionary learning, and design tools that advance and weave together the four pillars of Humanity Intelligence
-
The fire and wisdom within us: our inner being, our inner being, our gifts, our original goodness, and grace. At their core most humans want to love and be loved. They have compassion and justice in their hearts. Our inner being, rather than a realpolitik analysis, gives hope.
​​
-
A worldview informed by those universal values: the capacity of an individual to think and act beyond self, family, tribe, religion, and nation. Seeing with the heart and action are not separate realms. Humanity Intelligence links being a scholar and a doer, being a politician and a builder, being a visionary and a principled entrepreneur, being a mystic and a leader. Only when individuals act, can the world shift.
​​
-
The capacity to think and design in systems terms: to understand the complexity of causality, the nature of probability rather than certainty, and the nature of risk and array of outcomes. An understanding of the interdependent relationship between the existential problems of peace, prosperity and the planet go beyond usual academic or occupational boundaries. They require transdisciplinary frameworks and approaches to design and implement.
​​
-
The capacity to foster peaceful, just and inclusive societies which are free from fear and violence; and to turn conflict into creative solutions. My inner peace is foundational for informing my worldview and fostering peace outside. Our world is riven by fear and hate leading to conflict, large and small, from neighborhoods to nations. Conflict will continue to exist, but Humanity Intelligence teaches the skills to transform conflicts into novel possibilities. My inner capacities can turn conflict into creative solutions. And it brings forward the courage to act.
“Poverty is not an accident. Like slavery and apartheid, it is man-made and can be removed by the actions of human beings.” - Nelson Mandela

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
THE METHODOLOGY
This programme is offered in the hybrid/online mode. The workshop design requires participants to accelerate their own transformative process. Participants will apply the tools and templates they learn in an ongoing project - a break-through initiative (BTI). They will build upon their ongoing work/projects that they deeply care about and wish to transform and explore work at scale and innovate.
​
-
No lectures –but highly effective experiential and peer learning from insights and reflections
-
Space for cross-cultural, cross-sectoral conversations and mutual learning
-
Immediate results through personal practice while setting foundation for the longer term.
-
Immediate results in projects through the inter-session practice (coaching calls/zoom calls) of the tools learnt in the programme.
​
The program consists of a series of sessions. New templates and tools to enhance capacities are introduced in each session. In between each sessions, weekly sessions are held in small groups, where we share our practice and participants work alongside others from a variety of disciplines to build common language and practices so that we can work in synergy.
The program is designed to overcome traditional limitations by introducing a comprehensive set of approaches to achieve Peace, Prosperity & Planet that encompasses all relevant dimensions of current and emerging change processes. It requires citizens and stewards/leaders of change to accelerate their own transformative process. The design requires participants to build upon the projects that they care about and wish to transform and explore to work at scale and innovate.
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​WHO CAN PARTICPATE?
Any individual and organization who burns for equity, human unity and dignity for everyone and is in action and is working and committed to the Peace, Prosperity & Planet. and desires to make difference in our society for sustainable change that entails sourcing universal values and ethical action and for social and environmental well-being; organizations and individuals in Education/Academia, Corporate, Government, Civil Society, Communication and Media.

CSFR: THE DEVELOPMENT MODEL
It is a great opportunity to work on inter-dependent strategies for SDGs, provided we use the right design models, architecture templates and strategies such as the Conscious Full-Spectrum Response (CFSR) model and RTL tool and templates. The Conscious Full Spectrum Response Model is the foundational development model for achieving the SDGs. It is a transdisciplinary model and template for strategic action and is robust enough to hold the frameworks of different disciplines, various schools of thought. This is a cutting-edge, new generation thinking that has been proven to generate transformative changes worldwide and is designed by Dr. Monica Sharma (author of award-winning book “Radical Transformational Leadership: Strategic Action for Change Agents”). The book is based on her vast and extensive experience over 35 years of application of various methods, templates and tools for tangible results for people’s development worldwide, in over 60 countries.
The Conscious Full Spectrum Response (CFSR) Model fosters the ability to simultaneously hold multiple perspectives and yet have principled action and results. This is the new way of thinking, designing and action for solving complex problems. It offers a new path for today’s leaders — social and environmental practitioners, teachers, media and legal professionals, pro-activists and philanthropists, entrepreneurs and government representatives/staff - to experience the deeper convergence of principles, purpose and practice to generate concrete results that benefit all of humanity.
It intertwines three threads of a paradigm shift: (a) source our wisdom/inner potential and universal values for action; (b) shift cultural norms, systems, and structures that maintain the status quo and in order to become principled game changers; and (c) solve problems generate specific equitable and sustainable results.
​
This meta-frame is designed to, simultaneously in time, solve problems and generate measurable results, transform unworkable systems and cultural norms that perpetuate these problems, and create new patterns sourced from individuals’ inner capacity, universal values and transformational leadership. What is unique about the RTL tools and templates, including the conscious full-spectrum response (CFSR) model is that:
​
-
it addresses address complex problems, creating the enabling environment and language for partnerships from different disciplines, cross sectoral boundaries, adopting a whole-systems approach.
-
citizens, policymakers, and experts, from various disciplines and professions, can create new knowledge and understanding for strategic action, always anchored in a resonant space of oneness and universal values. They transcend ideology and work together to create value-based alternatives.
-
it is subject agnostic and therefore can applied across verticals and functions in an organization.
-
it plays a critical role in redefining ‘Development’ encompassing our inner and outer worlds, both as individuals and groups, so as to source the far reaches of the human and cultural capabilities to address the challenges we face.
-
it weaves the strategic tapestry for scale- the CFSR model is the fractal of large-scale change.
​
The result is that CFSR Model leverages trans-disciplinarity not just within one SDG but also across all the SDGs with transformative impact and scale.

WHAT PARTICPANTS SAY ​
​
"For me undergoing the RTL program since 2014 has helped me to become a stronger person and given me the courage to speak from stand and principles for justice and fairness without worrying about the consequences and my fears. The various tools used in the Stewardship Program has enabled me to redesign my community mental health project which is now more inclusive, sustainable and engaging multiple stakeholders”.
“RTL took me to a place where I could explore myself, create meaning in everyday actions at home, workplace and society. I see myself as an interconnected being in my everyday actions. The CFSR model and all the tools have helped me anchor myself in what I care about, see the big picture to navigate through complexities and be in action in reality.”
“This leadership program woke me to the responsibility I have to be at my full potential connected to what I really care about as an agent of change in the world. It gave me the courage to face the disparity and polarization that is so evident in today’s world, to stand in universal values speaking up for equity for all. The program taught me to design differently, always keeping universal values as the core element while challenging norms and systems that create and maintain problems and designing and implementing values-based solutions that leave no- one out. I feel I am walking a path of growth and continual learning that will be lifelong”.
“I stand for equality and equity for myself and others. Stewardship helps me to constantly reflect on what I have done and what I am going to do by using the integrity lens and transforming destructive anger to courageous heart response. It makes me question myself and look at problems as opportunities. I use the tools and templates to align, ground myself and to feel whole as a human being”.
“A process that has helped me to see that I am an agent of change, it was a catalyst that has stimulated me to be part of the change I wish to see, it has expanded and structured the way I dream and given me the space and tools to manifest these dreams for a better life for all. It is a continuous deepening and day to day practice”.
