Net positive : how courageous companies thrive by giving more than they take
Polman, Paul ; Winston, Andrew S.
"Runaway climate change and persistent inequality are ravaging the world and humanity. Who can help lead us to a better future? Business. These massive dual challenges-and other profound shifts like ...pandemics, resource constraints, and shrinking biodiversity-threaten our very existence. Other megatrends, such as the push for a clean economy and the unprecedented focus on diversity and inclusion, offer exciting new opportunities to heal the world, and prosper by doing so. Government cannot do this alone. Business must step up. In this seminal book, former Uniliver CEO Paul Polman and sustainable business guru Andrew Winston explode fifty years of corporate dogma. They reveal, for the first time, key lessons from Uniliver and other pioneering companies around the world about how you can profit by fixing the worldʼs problems instead of creating them. To thrive today and tomorow and tomorow, they argue, companies must become "net positive"-giving more to the wolrd than they take. A net positive company improves the lives of everyone it touches, from costumers and suppliers to employees and communitie, greatly increasing long-term shareholder returns in the process. Takes ownership of all the social and environmental imapcts its business model creates. This in turn provides opportunities for innovation, savings, and building a more human, connected, and purpose-driven culture. Partners with competitors, civil society, and governments to drive transformative change that no single group or enterprise could deliver alone." --> notranja str. zavihka ov.
