Conscious Enterprise Emergence: Shared Value Creation Through Expanded Conscious Awareness

  • Patricia Corner

Abstract

We propose conscious awareness as a mechanism for creating “shared value”; a form of value that Porter describes as putting social and community needs before profit. We explore the mechanism empirically in an entrepreneurial context and find that spiritual practices increase conscious awareness which, in turn, shapes entrepreneurial intentions and venture characteristics focused on shared value.
