Regenerative Business Network Experiences
The House provides place-based group experiences to Business Networks who want to activate regeneration, while deepening belonging, strengthening relationships, increasing value exchanges, and amplifying positive impact.
More about the House
Format
The house is a space to gather, ground, align and activate together.
The House is purposely designed to be co-created with collaborators, carefully curating knowledge - through content - and knowing - through experience; and balancing in-person and online participation.
Potential deliverables
The deliverables may vary depending on the goals of the regional business networker.
The possibilities include, but are not limited to the following:
Life-cycle Strategic Plan
Based on the Life-cycle stage of development of your business network, map strategic pathways that enable it to move towards Regeneration.
Collective Sense-making Experiences
Engage in embedding experiences that heighten awareness, creating deeper connection and sense of belonging to others and to Life of place.
Business Weaver Development
Develop the skills and capacities as a Living Systems Business Weaver, with a better understanding of how healthy Living Systems work, and how they can inform Business collaborations.
Intended Audience
The Business House is most appropriate for business networkers and weavers; those who liaise or collaborate with multiple businesses in various industries within specific regions. It is also valued by land and water stewards, impact investors, and leaders of sustainability departments (CSOs).
The House best serves leaders of Business Networks who are interested in applying Living Systems’s intelligence to their business ecosystems, and who want to gain clarity and confidence navigating business network regeneration.
Dive in to deepen & amplify the regenerative potential of your business ecosystem.
The Business House is for those leaders who acknowledge the potential within their business ecosystems and are ready to develop a deeper awareness of their role, a broader realization of their systemic impact, and an optimization of their offering.

Regenerative capacity building for nationwide initiative in Mexico
In a three-party collaboration, Cascading supported Foundation MAPFRE in a year-long effort to activate ecosystems for regeneration in three bioregions in Mexico, aimed at personal transformation, reconnection with land and territory, and collaboration with local communities. Cascading contributed with the know-how of the role of living businesses and co-designed a training program for 207 women from 18 women-led regenerative projects and businesses.

About Cascading’s Life-centered models
The models allow for a systemic and holistic understanding of the business and the business ecosystem.
At a meso level, the model allows for a better understanding of the functions, leverage points, and relative importance of each business area to enhance the whole and vice versa. At a macro level, the model helps identify and integrate the leverage points, flows, and cycles of the larger systems it is part of, and develop a better understanding of its role within those systems.
Overall, the model makes it easy to visualize how regeneration can best be activated and embodied throughout the different business areas and levels, for the regenerative emergence of the whole.
