Lecture Description:
We live at a paradoxical moment. Capitalism is destroying the natural and social worlds on which we rely, but it may also be our best hope for building a just and sustainable world. How do we get there from here? This lecture attempts to make the case that purpose driven business might – just might – help change the world.
