Triumph des Mutes: Wie wir
Sibylle Barden
Social transformation refers to a significant, sustained, and systemic change in the social structure, culture, and institutions of a society. The core elements of social transformation are:
Cultural change: Cultural change involves shifts in values, beliefs, norms, and attitudes. This can include changes in the way people think about social issues, such as gender roles, human rights, and environmental sustainability.
Technological change: Technological change involves the development and adoption of new technologies, which can transform the way people live and work. This includes advances in fields such as artificial intelligence, renewable energy, and biotechnology.
Political change: Political change involves shifts in power relations and the way decisions are made in society. This includes changes in governance structures, such as the transition to democratic systems or the creation of new international organizations.
Economic change: Economic change involves changes in the way resources are produced, distributed, and consumed in society. This can include the development of new industries, the growth of the service sector, or changes in global trade patterns.
Environmental change: Environmental change involves the ways in which humans interact with the natural world. This includes changes in resource use, land use, and the impact of human activities on the environment.
Overall, social transformation involves interconnected changes across multiple domains, with the potential to impact individuals, communities, and societies as a whole.
The core factors of the global social transformation include changing social norms, evolving family structures, cultural diversity, and social activism. In this transformation, companies play a crucial role by embracing diversity and inclusion, promoting equitable practices, and addressing social and environmental challenges. They can contribute by adopting responsible business practices, supporting community initiatives, and driving positive social change through their products, services, and operations.

My answers come from: Plastic Fischer, the top innovator who cleans the world’s rivers, from the Global Parliament of Mayors who demand a seat at the table to solve our problems or the World’s first Chief Heat Officer, who is fights extreme temperatures in Miami and many more.
