Summary

Ashkan Tashvir is a multi-disciplinary author and philosopher who has achieved significant attention for his ever-evolving body of work bridging the worlds of philosophy, business, technology and human potential. His frameworks, theories and books support individuals and organisations in comprehending and navigating the sincere confusion, suffering and social disintegration occuring in the world.

Notably, Ashkan’s body of work emphasises empowering individuals to deeply understand themselves and the underlying aspects to how they make sense of the world and respond to it. By taking ownership in this way, his approach encourages people to acknowledge their troubled, or ‘shadow’ sides, and appropriately address rather than avoid them.

Ashkan has developed a deep respect for and knowledge of the works of philosophers and thinkers from Eastern, Western, Persian and faith-based traditions throughout the ages. His radical analyses of contemporary and existing approaches to understanding the world, existence, how we make sense of our lives and leadership have established him as a thought-provoking and original thinker. He links philosophical principles with practical applications and emphasises uniting different viewpoints and recognising their commonalities, a unique approach that resonates with a diverse audience and has established him as a significant voice in contemporary intellectual and philosophical discourse.

While Ashkan has predominantly focused on professional research pursuits, he has been consistently interested in bridging the gap between multiple fields, including academia. As such, parts of his work have been published by the renowned academic publisher Springer, and he initiated a higher research degree at the University of Sydney. He has since ceased his research to explore broader pursuits. In recognition of his frameworks, theories, vision and overall contribution to humanity, Ashkan was awarded an honorary doctorate in Business Administration from the College de Paris in 2024.

The Metacontent discourse is one of his areas of focus. Here, he points to the fact that much of the suffering, confusion and social disintegration that is taking place is rooted in the intellectual substrate for how we make sense of the world. Rather than encouraging people to look on the content on the surface, he coined the term metacontent to describe the layers that sit beneath our sense-making processes.

Ashkan is also known for developing the Being discourse, most notably in his creation of the Being Framework, an ontological paradigm for leadership, performance and effectiveness adopted by thousands of leaders in over 53 countries to date. The Being Framework breaks down the relationship a person has with 31 qualities or ‘Aspects of Being’.

In addition to his intellectual and philosophical pursuits, Ashkan applies his body of work across a range of real-world and current contexts with a key focus on the economy. Here, he not only builds frameworks and models but also leverages entrepreneurship and investment to address critical areas that need attention in the world. In this capacity, his work has led to the creation of Engenesis, a global platform for human transformation, and Engenesis Ventures, a venture-building organisation that leads an international portfolio of startup companies.

Having experienced intense challenges many can't fathom, Ashkan is committed to empowering others and serving humanity to support us to live in a world with greater authenticity, care, self-expression and love. Instead of being permanently scarred by life's brutality, he gained a unique perspective and learned the importance of being responsible for one’s own choices and actions. Beyond his business, writing pursuits and studies, Ashkan enjoys spending time with his family and their much-loved dogs. He is also an avid collector, a proficient cook and musician and relishes quality time in nature.
