Innovation philosopher for business

  Business and philosophy

  The interesting and exciting moment now is: we do not know anything about the nextdoor future. All fixed concepts blow up like vulcanic lava. Real innovations are impossible to predict. We should be aware that the core of our society was based in economic market oriented paradigmas. Economics is no hard rock science. The misunderstanding of our economy is one of the cause for the crisis. Now we have to create a new frame of concepts that surrounds us: philosophy is the ocean of possible concepts, values and theories.

  Stop thinking in marketing only, think in joint investigation. Make your company an  intelligent warrior, where the workers share rythm and music so they know how to invite the client to dance. Be in close contact to the needs of the client.

  Burning question?

  Socratic thinking starts with a burning question, it should be a philosophical question. The collective process of communal thinking prevents us from struggles and unfruitful debates. In our individual state of mind, we just repeating same sequence of  thoughts (past tense of thinking) and making this same track everytime deeper and deeper fixed in our neuro circuits. If we go in dialogue we cannot continue our track: the others will help us in new horizons.

  Getting individuals and groups in learning action

  The core business of Humberto Schwab is getting individuals and groups in learning action. By using traditional philosophy, creative learning methods and future design tools. No future is predictable anymore, so we have to think in all possible futures: we need athletic minds.

The core business of Humberto Schwab is synchronizing the mental systems of your workers. By using traditional philosophy, creative learning methods and future design tools, he transforms people by investigating their presumptions, making explicit their values and developing goals, into creative designers.

Humberto Schwab uses philosophy tools to make deep analysis of the identity of organisations, business and their goals.

Producing in a web 2.0 context should be value driven. Sharing values with stakeholder is the condition for a sustainable relation with them. Whether it is education, culture, government or business.

He organizes innovation labs, starting from value brainstorm and Socratic dialogue. In Socratic dialogue collaborative intelligence will emerge as a result of shared dialogue.

When people get in structures to leave behind atomic identities and engage in collective state of being, the real creative process starts. Most entrepreneurial contexts suppose a lot of sharing and communicating while it is actually never practised.

From a Socratic analysis of the corporate identity future scenarios will be developed right from the ambitions of the actors. Socratic dialogue could be the secret for good strategic conversation. In this dialogue all participants are involved as equal experts.

Humberto Schwab studied physics and philosophy at the University of Amsterdam.
