“…it may be advisable for us to get ahead of the game and begin creating cultures of transition, to lessen the impacts of this calamity on our communities and potentially avoid post-apocalyptic stress altogether”

-Tyson Yunkaporta, Sand Talk

The time of green-washed climate courses and programs with business-as-usual conditioning is over. It is time to un/learn and (re)place what we’ve been programmed with by (re)membering natural ways of thinking, being and living. That’s why we call (re)Biz a (re)program.

Our flagship (re)program is a transformational online workshop that is designed to equip you with the worldview and skills to create regenerative and pluriversal post-growth futures whilst building towards social tipping points. We integrate global cultural and intersectional approaches of (re)storing kinship worldview, deconstructing binaries and cultivating interconnected, living-systems-change into our lives, communities & organizations. Our journey is for those who are REALLY ready to co-create a world of beauty, community and thriving life for humans and more-than-humans by deeply shifting everything we thought we knew about business.

If you need a comparison, think altMBA meets indigenous wisdom traditions, (re)generative systems praxis & de-growth/post growth economics.

What people are saying about (re)Biz

  • The (re)Biz workshop has been one of the more meaningful endeavors I have undertaken in my career.

    It challenged me, made me uncomfortable in ways that ultimately transformed me for the better, and gave me both energy for and insight into how to move forward in a more connected way.

    -Kaylyn Belcourt, President of Copernicus Educational Products | Canada

  • (re)Biz Should be standard issue for any CEO claiming that their company has integrated sustainability into their business model.

    This is a course like no other you've ever taken before, and will resonate with anyone on the journey to sustainability, interconnection, systems thinking, and transformational change. Because changing outcomes requires first changing our mindset, this course is the perfect place to start.

    - Marie-Josée Privyk, Chief ESG Innovation Officer at Novisto | Canada

  • Like the beautiful natural ecosystems that we are desperately trying to save, every tiny piece of this course is interconnected.

    Each piece of this course has been thoroughly thought out and has a distinct purpose. A truly holistic, mind-blowing and empowering course which will irrevocably change you forever.

    -Elle Radin, Director at Studio Panapo | Australia

  • I came in to change the system and left, understanding I first had to change myself.

    (Re)biz is not a course; [it is a journey]. It took me from my mental blockages to a much better understanding of the current system, world views, and paradigms rightfully at the origin of those blockages. Through the weeks, I could see my perception of the world changing. The course gave me hope and faith as I could learn from solutions and people already working with those new business models. And while doing this, I was not alone; meeting my fellow cohort members played a huge role in how I felt after completing this journey. Finally, (Re)biz motivated me to step into my power and action and build this new reality.

    - Claudia Angeli, Sustainability Professional | Netherlands

  • I highly recommend you take this 4-week online workshop...

    If you are a business leader ready to reimagine business and co-create a regenerative & post-growth world of beauty, community, and thriving life on Earth, I highly recommend you take this 4-week online workshop with Ryan (Ra) James and Erin Remblance.

    - Eduardo Esparza, CEO of Blue Dot Project | USA

  • The course is as a combination of the knowledge base and stimuli that help you write your own cookbook for showing up in an altogether new, coherent way in the world.

    Including: (1) the personal recalibration that it will entail; (2) the seeing of business in a brand new light - the light of *what could be* - with lots of concrete (and several less concrete yet inspired) ideas of what to move away from, and what towards; (3) the broad strokes of a masterplan of how to participate in bringing about a systems change - as an individual, as a business, and as part of a transformation network of fellow change agents.

    - Alice Kalro, Sustainability Professional | India

  • (re)Biz is not always easy or comfortable, that's precisely the point.

    This isn't a course to be taken, in order to gain a badge or certificate. It's a program to be experienced -- one that can alter or deepen your understanding of the pace and scale of change required (at the personal, organizational and systemic levels) if our human presence on Earth is to operate in service of all life. If you've felt that itch, but don't know how to scratch it, enrolling for the next (re)biz cohort would be a great place to start.

    - Dan Gray, Insights and Storytelling Expert | UK

  • (re)Biz is loaded with rich content that challenges the mind beyond the ordinary.

    The global community engagements were superb, igniting wisdom beyond the ESG content found in books and other known courses.... Well done to Ra James and Erin Remblance for crafting such enlightening and empowering content.

    - Sharon Cembi, Associate at Thito Mining | South Africa

  • The real GDP growth is the friends we made along the way.

    You are scared. You know the system is broken but you don't know what you can do about it. You know you are part of the problem. You dread the world you are leaving to your children... If you feel any of those things the re(Biz) course is an incredible opportunity for you to understand that there is hope, there is a way we can live sustainably on our planet. Led by inspiring, knowledgeable & wise teachers Ryan (Ra) James and Erin Remblance.

    - Adam Davies, Procurement Director | UK

  • (re)Biz offers an opportunity to reconnect to a planet in peril and to develop gratitude and humility for our shared home.

    The combination of science, indigenous wisdom, economic theory and systems thinking is confronting and hopeful and offers a compelling alternative blueprint for thriving life. It's the ultimate antidote to BAU incrementalism and an essential learning experience for business leaders, sustainability professionals, policy-makers and all those involved in securing a viable future for all life on Earth.

    - Tracey Herald, Sustainability Professional | UK

  • For anyone seeking to navigate today's complexity with wisdom and compassion, I recommend this course.

    (Re)biz artfully navigated the personal and political/systems level and explored key levers of ecological destruction and social isolation in small groups. The depth of content provided incisive critique of our current state, but contemplated many approaches to solutions through ideas and practice.

    - Marina Hough, Head of Impact at Motion Energy Group | Australia

  • I will always learn and feel great because of this positive engagement.

    I am super grateful for this (re)Biz journey and spending time with everyone in the community; it was more than expected. The materials were just amazing, and are truly designed to inspire everyone.

    - Maroua Benlahrech, Qatar Environment & Energy Research Institute | Qatar

We learn to cultivate internal states of integrated connection AND create external systems change in the process.

Walking the walk is much harder than talking the talk. Many people understand from a conceptual level that ‘we are nature’, but how do you live and think in ways that are deeply connected with natural ways of being? Do we personally embrace (re)generation & post-growth in the same way that we talk about it? What do we truly care about and are we working towards that? How can we change ourselves & the way business thinks & operates so that we're not dependent on endless consumerism and growth for our needs? How can we come to recognize what de-growth truly requires and how to implement it within organzantions? In what way can we make sure that everything doesn't collapse as we move into a post-growth economy? How do we truly do the (re)generative work that matters in the world & be catalysts for this in our communities and organizations?

We are entering into the liminal space between economic systems.

This course is for you if…

  • The focus of (re)generative business + post-growth is to (re)center life and (re)lational values over productivity and economic value. This will naturally expose the delicate webbing of where the current worldview is enmeshed with preventing these realities from coming to fruition.

  • An overwhelming majority of sustainability & ESG initiatives, while perhaps well-intentioned, are trapped in performative leadership that doesn’t really create true change. In (re)Biz, we focus on rooted approaches into authentic transformation of systems and co-creating ideas around how to apply them into our lives and organizations.

  • Regenerative business and post-growth are gathering steam as people see that business-as-usual will not cut it. We must (re)imagine how to come back within ecological limits, and this is a collective dreaming. We cannot do it alone. To learn these ways of thinking will position you as an early adopter of the next movement stretching the boundaries of your industry beyond performative sustainability and ESG. This is the future of organizational leadership.

  • Technological innovation rooted in a disconnected worldview can never solve our global ecological crises. In fact, technologies of this caliber will continue to create side-affects and symptoms that stem from an anthropocentric thinking and ironically, a lack of humanity. There is a deeper root to inform our technological innovation that is being ignored.

  • Many organizations are ready to begin to explore the ideas of (re)generation in their businesses, but do not know how. By taking this (re)program, you will learn various approaches that can be adapted into your specific organization and applied by you to enable the future.

  • There is a difference between future-ready AND enabling the future. To enable the future, there are certain levels of thinking and being that must be put into place simultaneously with future-ready transitionary models and approaches. This will help us navigate this liminal space between growth and post-growth systems and bring us back within Earth’s ecological ceiling.

  • Everything we do is communal, whether we know it or not. To help us navigate these troubled times we need community. To bounce ideas off of eachother, co-create new businesses together and the like, it is always better when we do it together. (re)Biz is cultivating a community of humans ready to walk this road together as unitive and unique.
