Where deeper ways of seeing become wiser ways of leading
(re)Biz is the world's first systems-thinking un/school, cultivating the perceptual capacities needed to navigate complexity, transform organizations, and participate in life-affirming futures.

Our global community spans 675+ leaders across 65 countries, united by a shared curiosity about systems, perception, and what it means to lead in a time of profound transition.
Together, we are cultivating the capacities to navigate complexity and participate in more regenerative, relational, and life-affirming futures.

Our Online Un/School
(re)Biz is the world's first systems-thinking un/school, cultivating the perceptual capacities needed to navigate complexity, transform organizations, and participate in life-affirming futures.
We believe the greatest challenge of our time is not a shortage of ideas, technologies, or good intentions. It is our ability to perceive the invisible paradigms shaping how we think, lead, relate, and create. Until those underlying architectures become visible, our solutions often recreate the very conditions they seek to change.
Our learning journeys invite participants to expand their awareness through systems thinking, Indigenous wisdom traditions, complexity science, embodied practice, and relational ways of knowing. Together, these perspectives cultivate the capacity to perceive systems more deeply, navigate uncertainty with greater confidence, and shape meaningful change in our careers, organizations, communities, and lives.
This is an education in un/learning: examining inherited assumptions, discovering new possibilities, and developing the inner and relational capacities needed to participate in the futures now asking to emerge.
Imagine a learning space where systems thinking meets Indigenous wisdom, where complexity is met with curiosity, and where transformation begins with a shift in perception.

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.

(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.

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.

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.

(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.

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.

(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.

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.

Where Inner Transformation Meets Systems Transformation
Lasting systems change begins with the capacities we cultivate within ourselves.
Many people understand intellectually that we are inseparable from the living world. Fewer have had the opportunity to explore what it means to think, lead, and make decisions from that understanding in everyday life.
(re)Biz is a practice of aligning how we live with what we know. Together, we cultivate the perceptual, relational, and embodied capacities needed to navigate complexity, lead meaningful change, and create organizations, communities, and economies that are more alive, resilient, and life-affirming.
This journey invites us to examine the assumptions we've inherited, rethink the systems we've normalized, and explore new ways of participating in the world. As our perception shifts, so too do the futures we become capable of creating.
We are living between paradigms. The old no longer provides reliable orientation, and the new is still learning to take shape.
This journey is for you if...
-
Many of today's crises are systemic rather than isolated. Together, we'll explore how inherited paradigms quietly shape our responses—and how expanding perception creates new possibilities for action.
-
Complexity isn't something to conquer—it is something to learn to participate within. Develop practical ways of sensing patterns, navigating uncertainty, and making wiser decisions in rapidly changing environments.
-
Whether you're exploring a career transition, starting something new, or reimagining your current work, (re)Biz offers perspectives, practices, and community to help you navigate your next chapter with confidence.
-
Strategies, structures, and technologies matter. The ways we perceive the world determine how we use them. Together, we cultivate the capacities needed to perceive beyond inherited assumptions and create meaningful change.
-
Leadership today requires more than expertise. It asks for discernment, adaptability, courage, and the ability to remain grounded while everything around us is changing.
-
(re)Biz is an invitation to unlearn as much as it is to learn. Through systems thinking, Indigenous wisdom, and embodied practice, we explore perspectives that open new possibilities for ourselves and the systems we inhabit.
-
Everything exists in relationship. By strengthening our relationships with ourselves, each other, and the living world, we create the conditions for organizations and communities to become more resilient and life-affirming.
-
Learning doesn't end after the course. You'll become part of a growing international community of leaders from more than 65 countries, supporting one another through ongoing conversations, collaborations, and lifelong relationships.
