The Swedish-founded Inner Development Goals initiative, which aims to foster personal development, has come under scrutiny.
Author Lene Rachel Andersen has alleged that founder Tomas Björkman appropriated her ideas for purposes she does not endorse.
This controversy has sparked wider criticism of the movement, including accusations that it is capitalising on the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
'We developed the book together through discussions', Björkman stated in response to the allegations.
