Mission, Vision & Goals

The foundational purpose, aspirational future state, and strategic goals that shape every architectural decision in the Post-Labor Economics movement.

Mission Statement

Our Purpose

To develop and disseminate comprehensive frameworks that enable humanity's successful transition from labor-based to ownership-based economic systems, ensuring dignity, agency, and prosperity for all.

The mission defines our reason for existence. It answers "Why do we exist?" and guides all our activities. Every framework we develop, every policy we propose, and every coalition we build must serve this fundamental purpose. The mission is our north star— unchanging even as strategies and tactics evolve.

Vision Statement

Our Aspiration

A world where no one is obligated to work for survival—where technology serves humanity, ownership is democratized, and every person has the freedom to pursue meaningful contribution on their own terms.

The vision describes our desired future state—the world we're working to create. It answers "What does success look like?" Unlike the mission, the vision is aspirational and may evolve as we make progress. It inspires and motivates, helping stakeholders understand what we're building toward.

Strategic Goals

Policy Influence

Contribute to policy discussions in 10+ jurisdictions considering UBI, wealth funds, or related mechanisms.

5

Research Validation

Partner with academic institutions to produce peer-reviewed research supporting our frameworks.

6

Community Growth

Build an active community of 10,000+ engaged members with local chapters in 25+ cities worldwide.

Strategic Hierarchy

How our mission cascades into actionable work. Each level provides context and constraints for the level below.

Goals

Multi-Year Outcomes

Framework development, coalition building, public awareness, policy influence, research validation, community growth.

Strategies

Approaches to Achieve Goals

Content-first growth, unlikely alliances, evidence-based advocacy, open-source architecture, distributed organizing.

Objectives

Quarterly/Annual Targets

Specific, measurable targets like "Publish book by Q2 2026" or "Launch 5 new chapters by Q4 2025."

Tactics

Specific Actions

Weekly newsletters, monthly AMAs, pyramid builder tool, policy one-pagers, chapter starter kits.

Guiding Values

The non-negotiable beliefs that inform how we pursue our mission and interact with each other and the world.

Human Dignity

Every person deserves economic security and the freedom to pursue meaningful work, regardless of their labor market value.

Evidence-Based

We ground our frameworks in data, research, and real-world experiments, updating our views as evidence evolves.

Inclusive Coalition

Transformation requires unlikely alliances. We seek common ground with those who might initially disagree.

Open & Transparent

Our architecture, decisions, and processes are public. We invite scrutiny and contribution from all.

Iterative Progress

Perfect is the enemy of good. We ship, learn, and improve rather than waiting for perfection.

Global Perspective

Post-labor economics is a worldwide challenge. Our frameworks must work across cultures and contexts.
