"BIOS IS LIFE"
MIND, BODY, SPIRIT, EARTH
We are all connected
The BIOS
Philosophy is the study of Green, Healthy, Holistic, Organic,
Sustainable and Energy Efficient living; combined with the firm belief
that teaching others to do well by doing good can produce a powerful,
positive change in the world capable of bonding all race, creed, color
and religion.. The BIOS concept was first articulated by Steve
Schappert 2004 relevant to healthy home building and has evolved to
its current definition. |

BIOS TV Debuts In March!
Organizational Philosophy:
Vision:
To create a global organization
that is dedicated to research, education and marketing of
green products and services. We are creating an employee owned
company with a multilevel profit share program so everyone can
recruit people with greater ability than themselves and earn
from them in the process, while propelling the company
forward.
Values:
Loyalty:
Bear true faith and allegiance to customers and each other.
Duty: Fulfill your obligations.
Respect:
Treat people as they should be treated.
Selfless-Service: Put the welfare of your customer and
coworkers before your own.
Honor: Live by these
values.
Integrity: Do what’s right, legally and
morally.
Personal Courage: Face fear, danger or
adversity both physical and moral. These values serve as our
moral compass to guide us, through the maze of intellectual,
philosophical and emotional issues that encompass our life.
Every leader should personally ascribe to these seven values,
include them as an integral part of their leadership
philosophy and share them with all of their recruits.
Caring for people: The organization has two
imperatives, do right by the customer and take care of our
people and their families. While these imperatives may seem to
be in competition with each other, successful leaders have
always found the balance.
Leader development:
The organization will encourage formal schooling, leader
training within the organization and empowerment. Leader
development is a lifetime process that blends education,
training and experience. There is no substitute for one on one
training and our mentor program must be developed as second to
none. Leaders and supervisors must delegate to subordinates to
encourage leadership growth within the organization. A sense
of pride in performance is created when people are given the
tools to make good decisions, and act upon them.
Managing change:
Change is not always easy for an
organization’s members. Quite often the biggest human resource
issue is managing change. Making a change doesn't require
anyone to admit they were wrong, it requires everyone to admit
that everything evolves, and the choices are usually as simple
as change or parish.
Diversity: We
recognize and embrace the differences in people, all the
backgrounds and experiences that will make us a unique and
powerful organization. This diversity will allow us to find
better solutions. We will listen to every member and foster an
open-door policy... change will be the norm. We will not
tolerate those who do not value diversity in the organization.
Maintain a sense of humor:
James Thurber remarked that "Humor is a serious thing. I like
to think of it as one of our great and earliest national
resources which must be preserved at all costs." You have to
know how to laugh, especially at yourself. Humor can very
often diffuse a potentially tense situation. For those
serious-minded pragmatic leaders, Gillian Flynn’s article
"Career Advancement May be a Laughing Matter" suggests that ".
. . a good sense of humor helps build personal rapport and a
greater spirit of cooperation." A suggestion—when all else
fails, you had better be able to laugh!
The BIOS Business Cycle
TM:
BIOS is the Greek word for life and The BIOS Business Cycle
TM
describes the process of achieving the triple bottom line by
positively impacting people, the planet and profits. First you
review your overall sustainability and apply cost effective
improvements. Second, invest these new profits in marketing
that promote the good things you do. Lastly, as your business
grows you will be able to do more good things. This creates a
perpetual motion of good that inspires others, and helps you
create deep bonds of loyalty from your customers.
