TOURISM
Current Purpose is to Grow…..
More visitors,
More trips,
More pax,
More revenue, taxes
Higher occupancy,

CURRENT TOURISM GOAL
Growth by and for whom? Who benefits?
• Destinations – need tax revenues and investment in
amenities, infrastructure.
Need to cover costs, manage reputation
• Developers – need new spaces to develop!
• Tourism multinationals – publicly owned need to grow to
satisfy their market, ROI, quarterly results, valuation
• Most SME’s in tourism (99%) are into survival!
• Cope with volatility, boom and bust, rising costs
• Satisfy Customers who want more for less each year
• More regulation, New technology
• And grow value – net profit per unit of transaction
THE GLOBAL CONUNDRUM
We believe our economy has to grow
More people; Higher expectations; Debt (interest)
THE GLOBAL CONUNDRUM
We need resources to support that growth
They’re becoming scarcer more costly to extract
THE GLOBAL CONUNDRUM
We need resources to support that growth
They’re becoming scarcer more costly to extract
We’ll have to pay for externalities
Cost of “Externalities”
• US $7.3 trillion
• 13% of GDP
• Greenhouse gas 38%
• Water 25%
• Land use 24%
• Air pollution (7%)
• Other pollution (5%)
• Waste (1%)

OUR LEADERS’ RESPONSE
Source: Kate Raworth, Doughnut Economics
“This report shows the
world on a development
trajectory that is not
sustainable.
If we fail to alter our patterns of
production and consumption,
things will go badly wrong.”
10 mega-forces, all connected
in ways we don’t fully
understand.
ACKNOWLEDGING THE
PROBLEM
The Earth’s environmental
system is simultaneously
coming under increasing
stress. Future simultaneous
shocks to both systems
could trigger the “perfect
global storm”, with
potentially insurmountable
consequences.
50 risk sources, all
connected in ways
we don’t fully
understand
TOP 4
• Wealth Disparity
• Debt
• Financial Instability
• Global
Governance
THE 1% ARE WORRIED
CAPITALISM MIGHT BE
FLAWED
“Capitalism does millions
of things better than the
alternatives. However, it
is totally ill-equipped to
deal with a small handful
of issues. Unfortunately
they are issues that are
absolutely central to our
long-term well being and
even survival”
Jeremy
Grantham,
co-founder
GMO
CAPITALISM MIGHT BE
FLAWED
“Communism collapsed
because it dedn’t allow
prices to tell the economic
truth
Capitalism will collapse
because it doesn’t allow
prices to show the
ecological truth” Oystein

WAY
The Tourism Story
The Promise, The Goal
This is how the world really works
Where on this curve are we?
The Result
• Growth in volume but
more:
• Volatility
• DIMINISHING
RETURNS
• Lower Spending per
capita
• Growing congestion
• Mountains of waste
• Resident backlash
90% + of demand

How will we handle congestion?
How will we handle waste?
How will we handle emissions?
How will we manage our thirst for water
and land?
How will avoid residents’ backlash?

How will we protect vulnerable people

THE Game Change is about
Breakdown or breakthrough
How do we cross the chasm?
How do we breakthrough?
How does Conscious Travel
change the game?
Back to Purpose
DOES REAL CHANGE
HAPPEN
WHEN YOU CHANGE
THE PURPOSE
OF A GAME
Agree, Disagree, Don’t
Conscious Travel a Game Changer
because
1. We’re changing the purpose of travel –
from simply growing (getting bigger) to
FLOURISHING (becoming better)
2. Changing our story, narrative, lens, our
paradigm regarding:
• what it means to be human and alive
• our relationship with Nature
3. Shifting our role from passive hosts to
active change agents
4. Enlivening, re-vitalising our
communities.
1. Reframe growth as
FLOURISHING
2. Reframe growth as
FLOURISHING
INSPIRATION
FLOURISHING MEANS
A shift from:
• more to better
• quantity to quality
• exclusive – benefitting a few - to inclusive with
benefits being more evenly shared over time, space
and between all stakeholders
• Low to higher NET benefit in quantifiable AND non-
quantifiable ways
It’s about experiencing what it’s like to be
• Fully alive
• Experiencing Seligman’s PERMA +
• Radiating vitality, energy, optimism
• Adaptable, creative, resilient together
• Hopeful, expansive not fearful and constricted
• Peak Performance – “in the flow”
THE end game
Destinations
Guests
Tourism Enterpreneurs/manager-owners
Employees
Suppliers
Investors
2. Changing our awareness
2. Changing our minds, our
mindsets
“We have one
generation in
which to shift
human
consciousness”
Jeremy Rifkin
“The deepest crises experienced
by any society are those moments
of change when the story becomes
inadequate for meeting the survival
demands of a present situation.”
3. Re-framing what it means to be human
A cog in a machine?
2. Re-framing what it means to be human
Shaped by the box we’ve been assigned
to?
2. Re-framing what it means to be human
A member of a living community
2. Re-framing what it means to be human
A free member of a dynamic, living community
Having Being
Homo Economicus Homo Sapiens, Sapiens
Separate Connected
“I”, Competitive, taking “We” Cooperative, collaborative, giving
Scarcity, Hoarding Abundance, Sharing, Gift
Machine Organism
Extrinsic values, utility Intrinsic values
Acquiring, complicated Experiening, evolving, complex
Conforming Authentic
Static Dynamic
4. Re-framing our Relationship with
Nature
"The tree which moves some
to tears of joy is, in the eyes
of others, only a green thing
which stands in the way,
Some see Nature all ridicule
and deformity, and some
scarce see Nature at all.
But to the eyes of the man of
imagination, Nature is
Imagination itself.
As a man is, so he sees."
William Blake
Change the way we see
Means all life and all nature flourishing too
62
When you want to build a ship, you
don’t start collecting wood, cutting
planks and distributing work, but
waken
in the heart of people, a longing for
the great and endless sea.
Antoine St Expury
Appeals to all of us – minds, hearts, body and
soul
can “read the love letters sent
by the wind and the rain, the
snow and the moon”
Our Purpose – to help our
guests fall in love with life and
Mother Earth and so that they
too
63
The real purpose of tourism
To have them fall in love again with life
To move our guests from numbness to
aliveness
from indifference to empathy
64
To have our guests experience wonder
Tourism has a special role to play
Finding & connecting
4. Fulfill Tourism’s promise as a
Force for GOOD
• Connect
• Heal
• Restore,
Regenerate
• Transform
• Cross-Pollinate
• Community
Change Agents
4. Through New Organization
Forms
Not-for-profit
Social Enterprise
Travel Philanthropy
Voluntourism
Immersive Travel
5. Emerging & embedded in
Community
“To build a popular
environmentalism, we
need to restore in
people
pride of place”

Assumptions
1. The task at hand is to re-connect
and align with Life itself - Harmony
with Nature;
2. Re-think our collective goals: from
growth to flourishing;
3. Hosts to become active change
agents;
4. Tourism enterprises will flourish by
digging deep into purpose;
5. The model will change because
human values are changing; and
6. Change starts and ends in
Imagine......
a network of host communities
each exploring how to deliver
net benefits from tourism,
a good living for people,
and transformative
experiences for guests
each in
their own way?
86
In the same way that cells combine to form different organs of the
body, so will the collective output of these cells combine to create
a new organic, ecological form of tourism -
one that is
environmentally sustainable, socially just and
spiritually fulfilling

That’s game changing!

  5. Mass tourism copied the same production – consumption model that KPMG say is unsustainable It is, therefore, subject to its same excesses and intrinsic weaknesses. It’s turned travelers and guests into consumers, tourists or, worse, market segments. It’s turned places into products and exotic experiences into safe packages that can be rated and compared by algorithm. Instead of obsessing about fulfillment, it fixates on efficiency, automation and standardization and then competes on price not value. Just think about it – we’ve taken a highly diverse complex planet that’s 13.5 billion years old with life forms that have taken 3.8 billion years to evolve and carved it up into products we now sell at bargain basement prices. Does that make sense? Does it make you proud?
  6. Why Wake Up? We have to wake up from the trance we’re in and become aware of our present and precarious position. The word conscious means awake, aware and and alert – it means making mindful, informed decisions NOT being willfully blind because the truth is too inconvenient. Our indigenous brothers and sisters – from all corners of the planet – are quite insistent that we have to see our world and our role in it differently. In every case, a change in seeing must precede a change in being, which must precede in doing. Many scientists, most cosmologists, some economists and many deep thinkers are all saying the same thing – we have the means to restore that relationship with planet earth but, until there is a major shift in consciousness (perception and will), those means won’t be deployed in time. Jeremy Rifkin, one the top advisors to the EU on its energy policy and author The Third Industrial Revolution, says we have one generation in which to shift human consciousness.
