Abstract Changes in the system usually occur when the system for some reason ceases to be functional. The problem of the system is primarily question of development; the crisis is a product of the system. One cannot expect the system to display a higher idealism or stage of development than that to which the average human consciousness has reached because the system is the product of that consciousness. Purpose of this paper is to present a concept of educational institutions as sustainable organizations. The general objective is to show connectedness between energy sources, communication and paradigm shifts with an emphasis on conformist - amber organizations, since most public educational institutions, in general, carry conformist template. Specific objectives are to present Wilber's comprehensive Integral Theory that incorporate vast number of scientific truths learned about human nature in one coherent whole, to show conscious business model based on empowerment through learning, growth and adding value and to explore digital information and educational products as possible products of educational institutions that could contribute to the sustainability of the education system. The aim is to encourage reflection on the possibilities of transforming educational institutions based on conformist paradigm into organizations inspired by emerging stage of human consciousness.
