Transformational wisdom

Transformational wisdom involves the application of knowledge, abilities, and attitudes to achieve a common good that makes a positive, paradigm-defying, meaningful, and potentially enduring transformative difference to the world for multitudes of people. There are various kinds of transformational wisdom, all of which can be contrasted with transactional wisdom, which is acting wisely merely in exchange for some kind of compensation. Pseudo-transformational wisdom is the appearance of transformational wisdom that disguises selfish and often narcissistic, Machiavellian, and even psychopathic intentions.
