What is the most sustainable thing there is in social and productive interaction?
Humanity !
Why?
Humanity enables constructive, interpersonal relationships and high motivation.
The effect of inhumanity is always destructive.
Our Guiding Thinking
The realization of universal, humane standards for leadership and collaboration in organizations is
NOT a means to an end.
Humanity IS the end and the only real and sustainable solution for a fulfilling, productive coexistence and collaboration of people - locally and globally!
Therefore, true, sustainable productivity is always based on
realized humanity.
True humanity always brings about
sustainable productivity.
The demand for humanity is universal.
It applies to everyone, always and everywhere, as exemplified by the Charter or the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of the United Nations.
For both of them coming together
- Productivity & Humanity -
it needs
universally effective solutions
in the
ω (omega) dimension
for human-productive leadership and collaboration
The ω-Dimension
from
alpha
α
to
omega
ω
The leader of a gorilla group, the silverback, is an α (alpha) in the animal realm. He has the remarkable task of protecting his species. However, he fulfills this task unconsciously. He does not do so in cooperation with other alpha animals.
The conscious insight, possible for us humans, into the necessary integration of universal human values and attitudes into all areas of our ONE world takes place in the profound dimension of recognizing humanity. In this recognition of humanity, a transformation occurs within people, unleashing a sense of responsibility.
People develop, and this competence grows significantly, through dialogical relations with others. The increasing internalization of humanity, from which one's own decisions are made with humane responsibility, leads to the ...
ω (omega) dimension
The ω-dimension always additionally reflects the fact that one's own decisions must also be in accordance with the interests of humanity, that is, it has a global dimension. This global dimension reveals the necessary universality and refers to the concept of the VOX HUMANA.
The use of language based on the ω-dimension, the VOX HUMANA, means that not only one's own sphere of life is taken into account, but the life of people in the entirety of the world, including nature.
This is what makes the ω-dimension so special.
Every form of leadership and collaboration,
non-profit or for-profit,
bears the responsibility
for its realization.
ω-Ecosystem
The concept of the ω-dimension is complemented by a number of related concepts within the ω-ecosystem. Lorscheider | Productivity & Humanity's ω-based solutions build upon these concepts and utilize them to create a broadly based solution architecture.

Recent Publications
Productive action is a central element in the lives of people, their institutions, and their entire environment.
Lorscheider | Productivity & Humanity is dedicated to the sustainable and productive design of human action, in which a humanely responsible approach to others, to intangible resources (meaning, ideas, knowledge, concepts, information, time, etc.) and physical resources (energy, labor, materials, technology, money, etc.) is central.
With proven expertise in this field, my partners and I develop forms of leadership and collaboration that enable individuals and institutions to remain productive in the long term.
Human-productive skills and their acquisition play a crucial role in this. They serve equally the personal development and well-being of the individual, the sustainable prosperity of all types of organizations, and the development of a progressively human-productive society.
