Michael Bloomberg’s Selfish, Selfless, Synergistic Actions

Bloomberg’s interview in the linked June/July 2017 Town & Country by Katie Couric inspired me to make this bonus post.  I encourage you to read his interesting and uplifting interview. In the interview Mr. Bloomberg explains that being philanthropic is SELFISH and implies it is also selfless and synergistic.  In my view, he is practicing Paneugenesis, the action I hope we all do to benefit everyone and everything.

Bloomberg is a great example of how to generate comprehensive improvements by creating pervasive, reciprocal, selfish, selfless, synergistic interactions so everyone and everything benefits. If you are interested, you can read more about him in my previous post about his book, Great Read: Climate of Hope by Bloomberg & Pope.  As explained, the book outlines actions he and other cities have taken and provides ideas of how we can take actions to benefit everyone and everything, .

Make it a great week.
