To expand the company’s mission of helping more people amplify their cause of creatively changing the world, Consulus has recently launched its official publishing imprint, Consulus Press, during the Gala Dinner in Jewel Changi, Singapore on 21 June.
For its maiden offering, Consulus Press published the book Creative Change by Lawrence Chong, Group CEO of Consulus, which exemplifies 80 ways of seeing and becoming a Changemaker to shape the world. During his keynote address and official launching, Lawrence talked about how the book came to fruition and how it is not a “manual” for navigating life but rather a creative guide that will journey with Changemakers and Changemakers-to-be.
Consulus Press also designed and published the English version of Garden of Givers, which explores the perspectives of companies from the Philippines, Argentina, Paraguay, and South Korea. Through extensive fieldwork, the author, Anouk Grevin, examines the “culture of giving,” and argues that giving can redefine business relationships, foster hope, and drive entrepreneurship. The book was translated by Gaspard Guy Laurent Lorthiois and was initiated and commissioned by Megan Foundation Inc.
During the STWS 2024, Paul Matangcas, Content Strategist at Consulus, sat down with Teresa Ganzon, President of Megan Foundation Inc., to talk about the Economy of Communion (EoC) and why reading the book matters now more than ever.
Consulus republished the best-selling book Rethinking Parenting by Eric Lim, Founder and CEO of Parendigm, which mainly asks: Have you ever wondered why some families have an easy parenting journey while some face a lot of stress? This creative parenting playbook features mini-stories to help readers reflect on their own experiences and navigate the intricacies of parenting.
Consulus Press published Creative Change Movements, a book composed of 20 stories that encapsulates the work of Consulus throughout the years—structured across three main themes—and serves as a comprehensive introduction to anyone who might not know what the company is all about. You may access it for free here.
In the coming years, Consulus Press will further solidify its position as a global creative change publishing house by producing more high-quality content that speaks to its tagline, “We tell the stories of Changemakers who shape the world.”
Currently in the pipeline is the forthcoming book on holistic leadership by Lawrence Chong and Jim Funk, Consulus Global Fellow, inspired by the Holistic Leadership for a Complex World training series, which seeks to provide insights and practical approaches to developing a well-rounded leadership style.
All books are now available for purchase.

Since then, more than 6,000 leaders have attended the STWS, which has been held in countries such as Bangladesh, the Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia.
