In addition to Profit as Purpose, Scarcity and Self Interest, the fourth aspect of "business as usual" that we believe leads to workplace and worker brokenness is a "Can We" Culture--an organizational culture in which ends justify means and ethics or the law are seen as...
In addition to Profit as Purpose and Scarcity, another aspect of "business as usual" that leads to brokenness is "Self-Interest"--the assumption that people are self-interested and will act in their own self-interest. This is closely tied to the scarcity assumption. In a blue pill...
In addition to "Profit as Purpose", another aspect of "business as usual" that leads to brokenness is "Scarcity"--the assumption that resources are scarce and everything is a zero-sum situation (my gain is your loss and vice versa). Importantly for Integriosity, a scarcity mindset in...
At Integrous, we believe there are four key aspects of "business as usual" that lead to its brokenness, and the most important of these is "Profit as Purpose"--the idea that the primary or sole purpose of "business as usual" is the maximization of financial profit...

We at...
We were designed to work--to use our gifts of creativity and productivity--it is part of being fully human. If we are not working and earning an income, we can feel empty and insecure (this is a special post prompted by the Covid-19 crisis tagging 10,000,000 people...
In England, riders on the "Tube" (aka the Underground or the subway) are famously warned to "mind the gap". People serious about integrity and faith/work integration should heed the same warning. At Integrous, we believe there are THREE gaps to cross, and we want to...
The United States is facing an epidemic of loneliness, isolation, confusion, distrust and dissatisfaction (pre-Covid-19). It is clear that the blue pill of "business as usual" has become "dehumanizing" and has moved far from its original design in Genesis as something good. We believe...
There is no shortage of statistics showing that most workers feel disengaged and disconnected from the activity that was intended to bring flourishing and fulfillment by unleashing their God-given creativity and productivity. Central to the the red pill of Integriosity® is humanizing people by redeeming...
