Liberating the Heroic Spirit of Business
Conscious Capitalism is for anyone hoping to build a more cooperative, humane, and positive future.

They had created radically new rules. This extensively updated book will help you master those new rules, learn from their newest experiences, build your great firm of endearment, change the world, and succeed on every level that matters.

Done right, business can alleviate suffering and elevate joy in our lives – while still delivering extraordinary performance.
Employees, customers, investors – all want to do business with companies that have a positive impact on people, communities, and the environment. Even so, many in the business world remain skeptical of the idea that focusing on human flourishing makes you more profitable. And those who have believed in this notion are increasingly frustrated that businesses are losing an opportunity to influence the world in a positive way when they focus solely on making profits.

Everyone wants to do better. Trust them. Leaders are everywhere. Find them. People achieve good things, big and small, everyday. Celebrate them. Some people wish things were different. Listen to them. Everybody matters. Show them.
