Following my first conversation with Feng Shui Master Meena Jagpal-Paré about optimising workspaces, we explored how these ancient principles drive business success. Fascinating to learn that major corporations like Coca-Cola and Bank of America actively use Feng Shui practices.
Understanding business energy
Just as your home has distinct energy zones, your business space maps into nine specific areas, each influencing different aspects of business success. This isn't just about physical layout - it's about creating intentional spaces that support your business goals.
The business energy map
Split into nine zones, they work together to enhance business flow:
Northeast zone: Controls overall business energy and grounding - crucial for decision-making
Southeast: Governs wealth flow and revenue retention
South: Shapes market reputation and public perception
Southwest: Strengthens business partnerships and team dynamics
Additional areas influence supplier relationships, sales generation, and new opportunities
While you might focus on certain areas based on your business needs, Meena advocates serving all nine to create balanced growth.
Creating space for opportunity
Your workspace holds 100% energy capacity - but what type of energy? Stagnant energy from old electronics, disorganised storage, and cluttered surfaces blocks new opportunities. Even organised chaos can prevent positive flow.
Quick actions:
1. Remove defunct electronics - they create double stagnation
2. Separate storage from work areas
3. Create daily opening and closing rituals
4. Maintain clear surfaces throughout the day
The manifestation principle
This is where Feng Shui becomes particularly powerful for business growth. When we clear physical space, we create energetic space for our intentions to manifest. It's like clearing a pathway - the clearer the route, the easier it is for opportunities to reach you.
I see this with my executive clients - those who maintain organised, intentional spaces tend to report more "lucky breaks" and "perfect timing" in their business dealings. It's not luck - it's created space for opportunity.
Implementation strategy:
Start with one area (don't overwhelm yourself)
Remove non-functioning items first
Create distinct zones for storage versus active work
Establish daily space-clearing habits
Practise gratitude for your current success
Whether you're leading a global corporation or scaling a startup, these principles create the conditions for growth. The key is starting small and letting positive results build momentum.
