“Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible.”
– Rudolf Steiner

Welcome to the Beyondables:
A Collective on a Quest of Rediscovery

Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the veil of our everyday experience? We get it! We are The Beyondables, a collective of curious minds on a mission to explore the nature of reality and how it shapes our lives. This is exactly why our quest began. To find out what this thing called reality really is and how it works. Through trial and error, and by learning to observe the world without judgment, we rediscovered something amazing: our own unique passions and the power within each of us. Our unique essence! 

We realized we could use this to not only break through limitations but also build a whole new way of seeing and thinking about the world. To break through the veil and build a whole new paradigm beyond what seems to be reality today. Naturally, we started to translate this quest into rediscovering not only our individual roots, but also the origin and essence of our collective human culture, before rigid dogmas were created. The findings were beyond surprising and uplifting. We are all so much more than what we believe to be nowadays! 

We are not here to convince anyone. We are not preaching or selling anything. We simply live a different way, and that inspires people. Some people even so much that they want to go on their own quest to break through the veil. That leads us straight to you. Here is a first question for you to contemplate on: You have come to read this text by pure resonance and the law of synchronicity. So there must be something here for you. Do you want to find out more? Why are you here?

Get ready to thrive

As an attentive and curious observer, you can probably already sense it: The world is on the cusp of a paradigm shift. Old structures are crumbling, paving the way for a new way of joyful being and living. A world that is thriving instead of surviving! A system that thrives on the well-being and prosperity of humanity and nature in equal terms. We’re leaving behind models focused on short-term gain and stepping into an era where human potential and environmental harmony take center stage.

This exciting shift is built on the foundation of the Intrinsic Economy, where people flourish by pursuing their passions and talents. And what fuels this engine of joy? Emotional maturity! By understanding and embracing our emotions, we can create a world that’s not just sustainable, but truly inspiring.

Intrinsic Economy:

Imagine an economy where everyone thrives by doing what they love! That’s the vision of the Intrinsic Economy: a world that goes beyond just making money. It’s about fostering long-term well-being for both people and the planet. Here, individuals unleash their unique inner genius, creating a beautiful tapestry of diversity and contributing to something bigger than themselves. The key ingredient? Purpose. It sparks intrinsic motivation, and gives meaning to our existence. Technology becomes our awesome sidekick in this journey! It empowers amazing co-creation, where people and ideas connect to build something truly special. Think of intrinsic businesses as organic ecosystems, where every part plays a vital role. It’s all about creating and working together for a future that’s prosperous and fulfilling for everyone.

Emotional Maturity:

Picture this: You’re feeling all the feels – joy bubbling up, frustration simmering, maybe even leading to anger or sadness. But instead of letting them control you, you’re like a master surfer, riding the waves with grace and skill. That’s emotional maturity in action! Here’s the thing: emotionally mature folks don’t shy away from their emotions. They have mastered the art of self-reflection and observation. They see vulnerability as a superpower, a way to connect deeply and grow. They embrace the full spectrum of feelings, from the sunshine-y highs to the rainy-day blues, without judgment or blame. They know that radically honest, heartfelt communication is the key to empowerment of everyone.

Think of it like a wild symphony – all the instruments (emotions) playing their part to create a beautiful (and sometimes chaotic!) masterpiece called life. But here’s the secret sauce: emotionally mature folks can also set and respect healthy boundaries, like saying “no” with kindness or taking a time-out when things get overwhelming. The coolest part? This openness creates a safe space for everyone to explore their own emotional landscapes and rediscover their authenticity. It creates genuine connections that fuel personal growth and a thriving, supportive community, where everyone can grow, learn, and experience the full range of life – the sunshine and the rain – together. And guess what? When you allow yourself to feel all the feels, true joy, inspiration and creativity can blossom like never before!

Redefining Leadership: Intrinsic Power to change the Game

Forget the stuffy suits and stale motivational posters. Intrinsic Leaders see the world differently. Where others see limitations, we see potential. We are here to change the game. We’re driven by a deep sense of purpose. We are not interested in the old money and power games. Nope, we want everyone, people and planet equally, to win and thrive! That’s real sustainability, and real efficiency, not that greenwashing-, and time is money blah-blah. 

We don’t move within the existing frame, we create a new one. We ditch the tired old rulebook and rewrite it with a focus on human potential. Because when individuals tap into their unique passions and creativity, that’s when real magic happens. It’s the difference between a flickering bulb and a full-blown light show.

For authenticity, creativity and passion to do that magic of true inspiring innovation, they need to come from a place of inner joy. Because if they don’t… another destructive Darth Vader is born. And really, we feel we can all agree… the world has seen enough of those.

Deep down, we all crave authenticity and love, being seen in our unique essence. Even the darkest Darth does. We long to ditch the masks we wear to fit in and survive somehow.  Intrinsic Leaders are the champions of this peaceful revolution. They create a space where everyone can contribute their unique gifts freely. No pressure to fit in. They are building a truly inclusive community where everyone feels empowered to shine. 

Imagine your work becomes your jobby, something you love so much that you can’t tell the difference anymore between work and hobby.  A jobby, where you can be you, with all your quirks and talents, and contribute to something bigger than yourself.

That’s the power of Intrinsic Leadership: igniting joy, sparking innovation, and building a future that’s not just successful, but truly inspiring.

Rooted in Love, inspired by Nature

Intrinsic Leadership isn’t just about strategy, it’s about heart. It springs from a deep well of love and appreciation for both humanity and the natural world.
Forget the short-sighted ego driven scramble for endless growth and more, more, more – that’s not how nature works. Only diseases like cancer grow only for the sake of growing. 

But here’s the thing: we’re all part of the same beautiful and complex ecosystem. Humans are not separate from nature, we are woven into the fabric of life. We play by the same natural laws, experience the same cycles, are subject to the same awesome (and sometimes harsh) dynamics, and follow the same flow of energy. Intrinsic Leaders get that.

“Everything comes from the great book of nature.”
– Antoni Gaudí

That’s why our approach is based on nature’s unconditional, non-linear way. No more conditional “if-then” games – the world is applying today with such prescriptive certainty. 

Instead, we draw inspiration from nature’s genius. This translates into a way of thinking and acting that’s not stuck in a straight line. From the intricate patterns of a snowflake, the genetic designs of flora and fauna, to the dynamic flow of a river, or the swirling of a galaxy – nature’s got so many intelligent ideas, serving as a basis for our harmonic solutions of tomorrow. 

Intrinsic Leadership is all about taking a page from nature’s playbook, building with intelligence and adapting with grace, just like a majestic fractal unfolding its beauty.This isn’t just about fluffy feelings, though. It’s about creating a future where humans and nature can thrive together, side-by-side. It’s a future where leadership is no longer about control, but about inspiration and coordination to foster augmented co-creation. We are creating a future where innovation is fueled by respect and love for our shared habitat.

Meet the Syntropist:
Our collective heart and bloodstream

Intrinsic Leaders are all about mimicking nature’s genius, remember? Well, The Syntropist is like the heart of a healthy organism – it ensures every part gets the nourishment it needs.

Think of a strong, healthy body. The heart pumps blood, carrying vital nutrients to every cell, from the powerful muscles in your legs to the delicate neurons in your brain. The Syntropist works just like that, distributing resources (human talent, wisdom, money, materials) like a lifeblood flowing through the organization.

Everyone gets their fair share! From the big departments (like the lungs taking in oxygen) to the individual team members (like the individual cells), everyone receives what they need to function at their best. It’s a win-win-win situation! A healthy system leads to happy, productive individuals, which in turn fuels a thriving organization that can truly make a difference.

No more Pyramids

Intrinsic Leadership says “bye-bye” to those old-school, rigid hierarchies that feel more like a power struggle than a team. Those codependent, controlling, inflexible structures that are about as fun as a broken pencil sharpener.

We’re all about organic structures, where everything flows naturally, and everyone works together like a healthy ecosystem. Forget the old power games and title worship. Intrinsic Leadership fosters an inclusive network of interdependent connections built on mutual trust appreciation for the unique essence of each person. It’s like a vibrant coral reef, where every creature plays a vital role, big or small.

We prioritize the individual, not the job title! The last thing we want and need is that people feel stuck in a limiting box, just because your title says “Assistant Something-or-Other.” Intrinsic Leadership empowers people to find their flow, their sweet spot where passion meets purpose.

This shift is all about moving beyond just surviving. We want everyone to experience the joy, fulfillment, and prosperity they deserve. Imagine a world where work doesn’t feel like a hamster wheel, but a springboard to a truly beautiful life!

Intrinsic Leadership in Action – Our core Principles:

Holistic Visioneering: Big picture thinking that connects people, planet, and purpose. We co-create a future that inspires everyone.
Nature’s Genius: We learn from nature’s brilliance, mimicking its interconnectedness, cycles, and adaptability to build sustainable solutions.
Emotional Maturity: Self-awareness, healthy communication, and a safe space for authenticity are the cornerstones of our success.
Playfulness and Innovation: We combine experience with fresh ideas to break boundaries and find illogical solutions. Laughter fuels our creativity!
Mistakes as Stepping Stones: We embrace exploration and see mistakes as valuable and crucial lessons for growth and true innovation.
Shared Unconditional Values: We build on a bedrock of shared values that define our purpose, our behavior,  and inspire every interaction. These values transcend short term oriented profit and efficiency.
Augmented Co-Creation: We weave a tapestry of collective brilliance, where technology and human ingenuity combine to generate groundbreaking solutions. Together, we are more than the sum of our parts.
Human Dynamics: Unleashing human potential is key. When trust replaces fear, co-creation explodes! We support individuals and teams to find their creative flow.

Extrinsic vs. Intrinsic Leadership

Humanizing the Robotic: In a world obsessed with automation, Intrinsic Leadership brings back the heart! We connect people and tech as collaborators, not a human vs. machine race. For us, it is a  “fusion dance” for a greater good, not robots stealing your job.
Essence over Efficiency: Forget about churning out widgets faster. Intrinsic Leadership celebrates the unique spark in everyone. This unleashes hidden talents and fosters a truly inclusive environment. Efficiency becomes a natural outcome, not a soul-crushing goal.
Purpose over Profit: Profit becomes a happy side-effect, not the main course. Intrinsic Leadership ignites a passion for a cause, something bigger than the bottom line. When people connect with purpose, their motivation goes supernova!
Transcending Hierarchy: Ditch the org charts! They cannot be found anywhere in nature’s grand design. Instead, we have a dynamic co-creation party where everyone contributes their unique awesomeness for the good of the whole. We are an interconnected organism, not a pyramid scheme with a rat race to the top.
Service: A Mutual Dance: Good bye to this whole me-first entitlement business driven by selfishness and greed. Service to self is service to others. Period. We recognize we are all part of something bigger. By contributing our best selves, we elevate the entire collective. It’s a virtuous cycle: You grow, we grow, everybody grows.Together!
