Carter Phipps is an author, speaker, and thought leader who works at the intersection of business, personal development, and culture.His recent book Conscious Leadership – which he co-wrote with Wholefoods founder John Mackey and Steve McIntosh– was selected as a Financial Times Fall Book Pick 2020 and has been praised by some of the business world’s leading thinkers, including New York Times bestselling author Adam Grant, who called it “Living proof that we don’t have to choose between purpose and profits.”
Carter could be described as a visionary writer, business futurist, and evolutionary. He co-founded of the Institute for Cultural Evolution, a non-profit social policy think-tank based in Boulder, Colorado, and inspired by the insights of Integral Philosophy, which seeks to better understand and influence the cultural roots of America’s challenges.
In this episode we discuss: Evolution and culture; Carter's think-tank that looks at evolution and politics, and addresses polarising issues within the united states of America; the notion of political progress; why it’s neither good nor realistic to wish for an entirely new paradigm without tackling our current systems; conscious leadership and conscious capitalism, and the counter-argument to the anti-capitalist stance; are we being pulled by the future or pulled by the past?; the notion of Telos and a teleological universe; the Omega Point and Teilhard de Chardin; the miniature worlds theory in quantum mechanics and carter’s opinion on it; whitehead’s notion of adjacent potential; why we have reached a stage when mysticism needs to participate in the evolution of humanity; is consciousness involved in cosmological evolution?; the intelligence involved in ontogenesis – i.e when chemistry becomes biology; transhumanism and the supplanting of the Sacred through AI.
