Soul of Business with Blaine BartlettAuthor: Blaine Bartlett
Capitalism as it is practiced today is designed to destroy the two resources it needs to function the planet and the people. Compassionate Capitalism may sound like an oxymoron AND it is the most powerful model we have for ensuring sustainable success - for ourselves, our businesses and our planet. Every organization has a soul or spirit that is its founding source. It is a non-replicable creative advantage that connects to literally everything. This connection is fueled by compassion and knowing how to access and leverage this unique soul is a crucial key to sustainable success for all life on the planet!
