Declaration of Interdependence: We Must Be The Change We Seek.
- rblion 14y agoWe envision a new sector of the economy which harnesses the power of private enterprise to create public benefit. This sector is comprised of a new type of corporation – the B Corporation – Which is purpose-driven and creates benefit for all stakeholders, not just shareholders. As members of this emerging sector, as entrepreneurs and investors in B Corporations, We hold these truths to be self-evident: - That we must be the change we seek in the world. - That all business ought to be conducted as if people and place mattered. - That, through their products, practices, and profits, businesses should aspire to do no harm and benefit all. - To do so requires that we act with the understanding that we are each dependent upon another and thus responsible for each other and future generations.
