The Manifesto of Integral Investing

We acknowledge humanity’s global grand challenges (GGCs), particularly the

existential threats such as climate emergency, nuclear capacity, and unsafe expo-
nentially growing technologies. Current systems, including political, economic,
financial, and educational systems, are not contrived to handle the GGCs. Never-
theless, we are convinced that transformation is feasible, and the necessary
resources, knowledge, technology, and capital exist to safeguard humanity and our
planet. A mind shift toward world-centric levels of consciousness is a mandatory
requirement and a premise for immediate, united, and adequate global action. We are
totally committed to doing our part to ensure the future of life. This is our manifesto:
1. Have a Massively Transformative Purpose: Our massively transformative pur-
pose (MTP) is to inspire and empower investors and company builders to ensure
the future of life and wellbeing. We take a world-centric view of the world and
address the GGCs through integral sustainability investing. We believe that the
development and deployment of safe and ethically sound exponentially growing
technologies are crucial for the future of humanity.
2. Have a Moonshot: Our moonshot is the investment turnaround. We believe in
the critical role of investing and company building in solving the GGCs. To
reverse it, we unleashed the investment turnaround to achieve the next paradigm
in investing. This paradigm is rooted in the essence of all existence, the exterior
reality, the material world, as well as the interior reality, such as culture, values,
psychology, ethics, and morals. It is a reality in which financial returns are
inseparable from environmental, social, cultural, and ethical impact, including
individual joy and happiness.
3. Make Transformation Feasible: We believe that transformation is feasible. We
are confident that humanity will muster the necessary mind shift, political will,
capital, and resources in time to implement the Smart scenario outlined by
Randers et al. in their 2018 Transformation is Feasible report to the Club of
Rome. The implementation of the UN SDGs must occur within planetary
boundaries. We continue to contribute our share of this transformation through

254 The Manifesto of Integral Investing

our integral investments in early-stage, exponential-tech companies, as well as

smart grids, ultra-energy efficient, sustainable NDC datacenters, and our efforts
toward climate endowments.
4. Follow an Investment Strategy: We have an investment strategy and a profound
tactical implementation plan based on three decades of hands-on expertise. We
know what we do and do what we know. We have a stellar track record in direct
investments and company building.
5. Have an Investment Philosophy: Our investment philosophy is based on Integral
Theory, AQAL (pronounced ah-qwul), by philosopher Ken Wilber, which has
been applied in more than 50 disciplines from medicine to economics and
business. It is rooted in evolutionary theory and helps us integrate all of reality,
its exterior as well as interior dimensions, in our investment decisions. It is a
map that helps us simplify and navigate the complexity of reality while
maintaining multiple world views and honoring the evolution of human con-
sciousness from pre-modern to modern, postmodern, and post-postmodern
structures of consciousness.
6. Have a Proven Investment Framework: Our proven investment framework is
called Integral Investing, a framework that both transcends and includes tradi-
tional and impact investing. Integral investing is a meta-theory and practice of
investing based on consciousness evolution as described in Wilber’s Integral
Theory.
7. Communicate Your Ideals: We communicate our ideals via our motto, the 6Ps:
The Parity of People, Planet and Prosperity with Passion and Purpose. Doing
good and doing well are not contradictory aims but are indicative of an indis-
pensable mindset that ensures the future of life and wellbeing; in short, integral
sustainability. The equality of all 6Ps is the key to our future.
8. Be Smart about De-Risking: We de-risk our investments using our proprietary
Theta Model, the due diligence process of Integral Investing that applies the
tools and methodologies of Integral Theory to de-risk investments with the
intention to build integrally sustainable companies from the very beginning.
We use proven financial due diligence and methods, structures, tools, and
metrics to lead the way toward the implementation of the next paradigm in
investing. The Theta Model has been developed, refined, and successfully
applied since 1995.
9. Investing in Scientific Proof and Technology Advancement within Planetary
Boundaries: We believe in scientific proof. We invest in scientifically proven
solutions to real-world problems. We never invest in “shoulds,” but in hard and
proven ideas and in highly qualified and integrally informed people. We believe
in the ingenuity of the human mind to solve critical problems, even if it takes
time. Humanity has arrived at this point in time and space through an evolu-
tionary process that initially looked linear and local. Now it has become obvious
that we are subject to an exponentially growing function of evolution that has a
global impact. Thus, smart and wise action is required.
10. Act Boldly Now: We act boldly now and believe that we are living through some
of the most exciting times in human history. We are very privileged to be alive in
The Manifesto of Integral Investing 255

this day and age, but with privilege comes responsibility. Subsequently, there
has never been a better time to act than now, and neither has there ever been a
greater necessity or obligation to act.
11. Never, Never, Never Give In: During a 20-minute speech at Harrow School on
October 29, 1941, Churchill encouraged his audience to “Never give in. Never
give in. Never, never, never, never–in nothing great or small, large or petty–
never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to
force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.” The
enemy Churchill was referring to was Nazi Germany, but we think that his
advice applies in general to a life well lived. This is why we have adopted it.
12. Provide Certainty Where There Is Doubt: We provide certainty where there is
doubt and hope where there is despair. We are mindful optimists, and we use
scientific research and lifelong investment and company-building expertise to
clear a path to a sustainable and abundant future for us all. We put our money
where our mouth is.
13. Recognize the Critical Role of Capital in Transformation: We believe in the
critical role of capital to solve the GGCs. However, to achieve that, our systems
must move beyond the current understanding of capital as being money and the
single measurement of success. We work with and have an extended under-
standing and definition of capital that transcends the traditional financial capital
and includes natural capital, human capital, as well as social and cultural capital,
but also, for example, cognitive and psycho-spiritual capital.
14. Invest in People, not in Ideas: We invest passionately and compassionately in
people, not in ideas. Our experience has reinforced the old adage that “ideas are
a dime a dozen” and taught us that 80% of the risk in any endeavor lies with the
people involved. Therefore, we invest first and foremost in people, because
people at later stages of consciousness are more likely to succeed at
implementing a good idea whose time has come.
15. Build Integrally Sustainable Organizations: We believe that trust and wisdom
are the foundation for the future of life. We walk the talk and work tirelessly
toward building a culture of trust in our organizations. We focus on building
integrally sustainable companies that are led by integrally informed manage-
ment teams.
16. Take Pride in Long-Term Investments: We choose long-term, sustainable invest-
ments over short-term profit at the expense of people and the planet. We take
pride in making meaningful investments that generate abundance for all and
ensure the future of work and the future of life and wellbeing.
17. You Can Only Achieve What You Measure: We believe that we can only achieve
what we measure. To fulfill our self-imposed Integral Investing mandate, we
measure the activities and outcomes of our investments. We use existing
measurement criteria for success by applying standards and quasi-standards
where they exist and develop our own metrics where needed.
18. You Cannot Not Invest. We believe that the market has no intentions, only
people do. We think that everybody is an investor, because we all influence the
economy through, for example, our purchases, votes, work, commitments,
256 The Manifesto of Integral Investing

knowledge, preferences, love, and caring. Like money, the market and our
economic systems are constructs made by people to serve people. We believe
that our current GGCs are the result of outdated systems created by outdated
mindsets that no longer serve humanity. Earth needs world-centric mindsets. We
are committed to paving the way toward integrally sustainable investment and
business systems that are driven by people rooted in world-centric mindsets to
ensure the future of life.
19. With Privilege Comes Responsibility: We believe in higher ethics, morals, and
unity consciousness. Through our actions we contribute to unleashing the next
level of consciousness in human evolution and believe that higher ethics and
morals pave the way.
20. Self-actualize through Investing: We self-actualize through investing. Investing
is not a profession but a way of life for us. We actively seek out the good in
everything. We live an integrally informed life guided by an integral life practice
and believe that there is always a solution to a problem when you are committed
to a positive outcome. We seek short-term flow and long-term meaning through
our activities. We think globally and exponentially. We act locally with integral
impact to ensure the future of life on earth.
21. Practice Humility: We practice humility and seek harmony between head and
heart. Chinese sage Lao Tsu wrote in the Tao Te Ching that “the more you know
the less you understand. . . [and] not knowing is true knowledge.” We take those
words to heart. While we trust scientific research and allow ourselves to be
guided by progressive models of the world, we do not follow anyone or anything
but truth. Moving forward, we practice humility, embrace the unknown, and
practice flexibility with the intention to grow, to shift our beliefs and our
activities at any time, should the Universe reveal better ways of serving the
future of life.
Glossary

Integral Investing The meta-theory and investment practice of integral investors, it

is rooted in philosopher Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory, AQAL (pronounced
ah-qwul).
Integral Investors Self-actualizing individuals who have awakened to a unity
consciousness mindset at later stages of human development. They are acting
holistically, whether they use AQAL as a guiding map to navigate the exponen-
tially growing complexity of the world or not. Integral investors have a massively
transformative purpose (MTP), a moonshot, and a daily integral wheel of life
practice. They apply exponentially growing technologies to build integrally
sustainable organizations that successfully address humanity’s global grand chal-
lenges such as implementing the UN SDGs within planetary boundaries.
Integral Map, Framework, or Operating System Synonym for Ken Wilber’s
Integral Theory, AQAL.
Integral Lens This is the looking glass into the world of investing that uses Integral
Theory as its lens.
Integral Sustainability Investing This approach to investing aims to fulfill the call
issued in the Brundtland Report, named in honor of former Norwegian Prime
Minister Gro Harlem Brundtland, who chaired the World Commission on Envi-
ronment and Development from 1983 through 1987. Brundtland’s request for
sustainability intends to meet “the need of the present without compromising the
ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”1 Integral sustainability
fulfills Brundtland’s call through investing and the application of Integral Theory,
and contends that all investment activity must be rooted in the essence of all
existence, the interior such as culture, values, ethics, and morals as well as
exterior reality, the material world. It is a reality in which financial sustainability
is inseparable from its environmental, social, cultural, and ethical impact, as well
as individual self-actualization, joy, and individual happiness.

258 Glossary

Integral Team The management team, C-levels, in which we invest ought to

operate from an integrally informed and/or integrally acting level. The desired
center of gravity is second tier with a minimum centered at first tier, orange-level,
as defined, for example, by Spiral Dynamics.
Integral Theory Developed by philosopher Ken Wilber, it is rooted in evolution-
ary theory and honors the truth in all there is. It aims to integrate all of reality,
exterior as well as interior dimensions. It is a map that helps simplify and navigate
the complexity of reality while maintaining multiple world views and honoring
the evolution of human consciousness from pre-modern to modern, postmodern
to post-postmodern structures of consciousness.
Massively Transformative Purpose (MTP) A term popularized by Singularity
co-founder Peter Diamandis. Your MTP reflects you and your belief system; it is
inspiring and connects your heart with your mind. It is independent of technol-
ogy; it is neither too wide nor too narrow; and you can speak with confidence
about what it means and why it is your MTP.
Moonshot A moonshot is the intention to achieve something that nobody has
achieved before. It means to go “10 times bigger, while the rest of the world is
trying to grow 10%.”2 Our professional moonshot is the implementation of the
Investment Turnaround (in German, the Investmentwende). It is the specific
application of exponential technologies toward achieving Integral Investing, the
next paradigm in investing, namely integral sustainability. It aims at
implementing an investing paradigm rooted in the essence of all existence, the
exterior reality, the material world, as well as interior realities such as culture,
values, ethics, and morals. It is a reality in which financial returns are inseparable
from environmental, social, cultural, and ethical impact, including individual joy
and happiness. Our first goal is the integrally sustainable implementation of the
UN SDGs within planetary boundaries by 2050.
Theta Factor The result of the Theta Model, AQAL due-diligence process that my
husband, Tom, and I use to decide on whether or not to invest.
Theta Model The Theta Model is the due-diligence, de-risking, process that applies
the tools and methodologies of Integral Investing to de-risk investments with the
intention of building integrally sustainable companies from the very beginning. It
integrates (a) traditional investing due-diligence criteria (financial, legal, sales
and marketing, etc.) with (b) sustainability criteria and impact investing metrics
(for example, UN SDGs within planetary boundaries, as well as Social, Environ-
mental, and Governance (ESG) of the UN PRI, etc.); and (c) cultural, behavioral,
and consciousness criteria as defined in Wilber’s integral framework.
