Program Description

Description

Gavin Watson explores the principles of Conscious Capitalism based on two decades of research in the fields of positive psychology, organizational psychology, and evolutionary biology

After joining his family's food manufacturing business as a maintenance mechanic, Gavin Watson moved up through engineering and eventually became vice president of operations and company chair of Watson Inc. He focused on employee engagement through a self-organizing self-directed team approach. Passionate about saving our planet's ecosystem at work and at home, Watson mentored and encouraged teams to run energy audits and implement improvements that reduced electrical consumption by 25 percent while also growing the business at the same time. He is now chair of the Connecticut Chapter of Conscious Capitalism and is a boat builder and sailor.
