Dear Reader,
We are used to binary thinking: good or bad, profit or philanthropy, environment or business, rational or new agey, short term or long term...
Have you ever considered that reality is constantly showing us that binary thinking is not a good approach, as we are faced with "both-and's" that challenge our way of thinking?
This month we share with you a very innovative approach to business - called Conscious Capitalism, where the environment is as strong a stakeholder as the shareholders. And the employees. And the community. And the vendors. And yes, the clients too.
All in all, the model works.
Enjoy the discovery and be inspired.
(And check out the Quote of the Month at the bottom - inviting you to Stop and Reflect...)

"What do Starbucks, UPS, Nordstrom, Southwest Airlines, Amazon.com, Whole Foods Market and Costco have in common?", asks Anthony J. Sadar in his column of March 2013 in the Washington Times. The answer is that they all practice "conscious capitalism."
"Conscious capitalism is an evolving paradigm for business that simultaneously creates multiple kinds of value and well-being for all stakeholders: financial, intellectual, physical, ecological, social, cultural, emotional, ethical and even spiritual. This new operating system for business is in far greater harmony with the ethos of our times and the essence of our evolving beings," indicate John Mackey, co-CEO of Whole Foods Market, and Raj Sisodia, marketing professor at Bentley University, in their 2014 book, Conscious Capitalism: Liberating the Heroic Spirit of Business.
This model of business is different from the traditional concept of doing well by doing good. Read More...
Practicing Conscious Capitalism
Mr. Mackey 's Whole Foods Market Inc. has been able and eager to help alleviate world poverty through one of its ambitious nonprofits, Whole Planet Foundation. The charitable action of Whole Planet Foundation involves participation in microlending programs in more than 50 countries and has funded more than 200,000 microcredit loans, providing more than $35 million in capital.
