Something about Money
Money at the intersection of self, organizations and systems transformation
New leadership calls for new ways of organising—including how we work with money! Many people and organizations are paving the way with progressive and participatory ways of working, yet how we use and work with money often remains stuck in old habits. Why is this? What makes it so hard to align our values with our actions when money is involved? And how can we change this?
Join us for a participatory event at Commons Hub Brussels, as we delve into these important questions. Together, we’ll explore the many layers involved—from our personal relationship with money, to how it’s handled within organizations and its role in the broader systems we are part of. We will inquire, share examples and practices for how money can flow more regeneratively, and help us move from systems of scarcity, control and power imbalance, to systems based on abundance, trust and interdependence.
Join us for an evening filled with inspiration, thought-provoking dialogue, and opportunities to connect and share!

This event is a side-event of the Genesis Experience, organized in collaboration with Commons Hub and Greaterthan Collective.
Greaterthan Collective is a global consulting business born from over a decade of experience in decentralized, participatory organizing through the Ouishare and Enspiral communities. Questioning how we work with money and experimenting with alternative approaches has always been central to our practice. This includes playfully unpacking individual and collective money stories, opening financial books, dynamic budget allocation and “new pay” salary models.
