Teaching Workshop: Anthroposophy in Business: Human Dignity, Sustainable Ethics and Social Threefolding

The workshop aims to deepen the theme of ethics and human dignity in the business world
through practical experiences, distinguishing elements and principles of Anthroposophy (a
philosophical approach born in the late nineteenth century) and Rudolf Steiner's social
threefolding theory. We will examine the foundations on which successful economic initiatives
- that have focused on philosophical questions - have been built, and we will explore innovative
models of governance and organization inspired by Anthroposophy.

The workshop aims to develop the following skills:

Critical thinking skills:
By the end of the workshop, students will display a sufficiently independent critical approach in selecting and interpreting the notions that are most relevant to their area of study and to the broader socio-cultural context in which they operate.

Communication skills:
By the end of the workshop:
- students will be able to effectively communicate the acquired knowledge and disseminate it to the general public;
- student will have developed basic IT skills concerning knowledge preservation and transfer;
- to provide students with the fundamental tools for writing a philosophical paper.

Learning skills:
By the end of the workshop, students will have developed the learning skills required to continue their studies in keeping with their research interests. To meet this objective, students will also develop relevant skills in the independent interpretation of sources and the use of basic IT tools for bibliographic research.
