Increasing Consciousness Information

With Increasing Consciousness, our goal is to facilitate equity in the world through elevating the consciousness of world leaders. We are a pioneering organization dedicated to transforming leadership through the lenses of consciousness, reflexivity, and equity. With a profound commitment to awakening leaders to the interconnectedness of human experiences, Aang empowers organizations and individuals to cultivate equitable and compassionate environments that drive true change. The founder, Aang, utilizes a transdisciplinary approach that brings together key concepts from the fields of Leadership, Critical Social Work, Organization Development, Violence Prevention, Diversity and Inclusion, Public Health, Social Constructionism, Social Norms Theory, Appreciative Inquiry, Intersectional Oppression, and Change Management. These areas, in addition to their personal practices and certifications of various consciousness practices, are each essential in navigating the complexities of facilitating equity work on a global scale. By helping the world to understand that all forms of violence stem from the simple establishment of difference between one person and another (or one nation and another), we can begin to see the reality that we are all humans interconnected through the ecological and social constructs that we have mutually defined through language and then actively shape change through their deconstruction. I believe the most logical and influential place to start is by facilitating understanding and growth in the foundational elements that support equity and prevent violence and inequity by expanding individual awareness of our oneness or interconnectedness and removing the idea of difference. This can only be achieved through consciousness raising practices that encourage self-awareness and awareness of others that we can then use to facilitate systemic change.
