For decades parents have been telling their children,
“Do good in school, get a good job, work hard and you will be happy and healthy and able to provide for your family and feel good about your life”.
Over the last 10-15 years the cracks in this facade have become more and more glaring as it becomes obvious that most economic models for success over the last few centuries have been predicated on not paying fair market value, either for raw materials, or labor, or not paying the price for future environmental impact.
So if you are one of the millions of people who have followed your parents’ advice, and ended up as cogs in a machine that is incabaple of change, you might be looking for meaningful ways you can change your career without starting completely over.
We have assembled a panel of experts which is both geographically and professionally diverse to help you start or jumpstart your career transition planning to start becoming a part of the solution rather than a supporter of a failing system.
By learning how to tap your innate talents and by having a long term vision, you can live a life full of rich experiences and meaningful connections without continuing to sacrifice your principles.

The World Spirit of the Game Foundation was formed to help individuals and organizations take Personal Accountability for their Impact on the world.
Our organization has spread to 30+ countries so far just in 2021 and there are 4 main Pillars of the organization, with each individual or organizational member choosing for themselves how many of these areas they wish to contribute to.
1) Developing SotG as the world’s first “crowd-sourced” life philosophy which both provides individuals with an internal framework for choosing a different definition of winning and as a Social Movement which provides the external framework that helps like minded individuals and organizations around the world maximize their positive impact on society.
2) An Impact Coaching division to help raise funds for the non-profit work, and which now has a wide range of offerings for universities, as well as for corporations, SMEs, and start-ups.
3) Typical NGO work which includes applying for grants on Youth Leadership, Women’s Empowerment, and Entrepreneurial support, among others, as well as organizing global initiatives and supporting other NGOs
4) A global Impact Network of “disruptors of dysfunctional systems” that consists of individuals and organizations from the worlds of non-profit, social enterprise, for profit, academia and government.
Here is a full video overview of these 4 pillars as well as a deeper explanation of the long term goals of the organization/movement. ——————————————>>>
