Conscious Capitalism: Business As A Force For Good
Conscious Capitalism is the modern way for leaders to think about capitalism and business in today’s global society. It drives organizations to serve a higher purpose, with all stakeholders finding interdependencies and synergies (vs. trade-offs). It is business as a force for good elevating people through humanity, so everyone flourishes, finds purpose – and prospers.
