Bestseller del New York Times Bestseller del Wall Street Journal Apparso su Super Soul Sunday di Oprah Winfrey John Mackey e Raj Sisodia sottopongono ad una serrata critica la narrazione secondo cui il capitalismo sarebbe la fonte di tutti i mali che affliggono la nostra società in quanto sfrutta i lavoratori, inganna i consumatori, genera disuguaglianza, disgrega le comunità locali e distrugge l’ambiente inseguendo una crescita che, alla fine, non può che rivelarsi insostenibile. A questa versione mercantilistica e predatoria del capitalismo, gli autori contrappongono una versione più nobile, che chiamano “Capitalismo consapevole” ed è basata su quattro princìpi fondamentali: Lo scopo di un’azienda consapevole non è creare valore solo per se stessa, ma per l’intera comunità per cui opera: clienti, dipendenti, fornitori, investitori e chiunque sia influenzato a qualunque titolo dalle sue attività. Un’azienda consapevole non ricerca la massimizzazione del profitto ad ogni costo, ma pone al centro delle sue attività il perseguimento di scopi di ordine superiore, che sono il motivo stesso della sua esistenza. Un’azienda consapevole è guidata da leader consapevoli mossi dalla dedizione nei confronti dell’impresa, di tutte le persone su cui essa ha un impatto e del pianeta che noi tutti condividiamo. Un’azienda consapevole possiede una cultura aziendale autentica, innovativa e improntata al rispetto nei confronti degli altri, grazie alla quale tutti i dipendenti possono crescere come individui e sentirsi appagati come persone. In sintesi, secondo gli autori, un capitalismo consapevole può contribuire a creare un mondo in cui miliardi di persone abbiano la possibilità di fiorire e condurre una vita piena di passione, determinazione, amore e creatività.

「意識の高さ」を成長に変える!世界の超優良企業が実践する経営スタイル! 本書は「誰もが自発的に物やサービスを自由に交換できる仕組み」である資本主義を高く評価しながら、企業が利益や株主価値の最大化を私企業の唯一の目的であるとするのは誤りだ、と説きます。そしてそれにかわる経営スタイルとして「コンシャス・キャピタリズム(意識の高い資本主義)」の実現を提案します。 ケーススタディには、イケア、スターバックス、パタゴニア、コストコ、サウスウエスト航空、ジェットブルー航空、タタ、トヨタ、トレイダー・ジョーズ、POSCOなど、数多くの事例を取り上げます。 企業理念の追求は普遍的なテーマです。 だからこそ今でも『エクセレント・カンパニー』(初刊行:1983年)や『ビジョナリーカンパニー』(1995年)が読み続けられています。 しかし時代も変われば企業理念も進化します。 世界でいちばん大切にしたい企業が実践する、経営術とは何なのか? 世界中で大切にしてもらえる企業になるにはどうしたらよいのか? 本書を紐解いてほしい。 ※本電子書籍は同名出版物を底本として作成しました。記載内容は印刷出版当時のものです。 ※印刷出版再現のため電子書籍としては不要な情報を含んでいる場合があります。 ※印刷出版とは異なる表記・表現の場合があります。予めご了承ください。 ※プレビューにてお手持ちの電子端末での表示状態をご確認の上、商品をお買い求めください。 (翔泳社)

The bestselling book, now with a new preface by the authors At once a bold defense and reimagining of capitalism and a blueprint for a new system for doing business, Conscious Capitalism is for anyone hoping to build a more cooperative, humane, and positive future. Whole Foods Market cofounder John Mackey and professor and Conscious Capitalism, Inc. cofounder Raj Sisodia argue that both business and capitalism are inherently good, and they use some of today’s best-known and most successful companies to illustrate their point. From Southwest Airlines, UPS, and Tata to Costco, Panera, Google, the Container Store, and Amazon, today’s organizations are creating value for all stakeholders—including customers, employees, suppliers, investors, society, and the environment. Read this book and you’ll better understand how four specific tenets—higher purpose, stakeholder integration, conscious leadership, and conscious culture and management—can help build strong businesses, move capitalism closer to its highest potential, and foster a more positive environment for all of us.

What if the distinction between business and doing good vanished? What if all those who engaged in business were committed to a deeper purpose, and all those committed to doing good were entrepreneurial and enterprising? What would it take for a world of seven billion such people to solve all the world’s problems? More and more people are looking for meaning and purpose in their lives as employees, as consumers, and as investors. More and more people have more than enough material goods and are more interested in the qualities of the goods they buy; in the experiences associated with the services they provide and buy; in the way the companies they buy from act as citizens; and in self-actualization—rising up Maslow’s hierarchy. As an increasing percentage of the population reaches the point at which they no longer need more stuff, what will they do, how will they live their lives? If you are one of these people, wondering where to go from here, how to “be the solution” in the twenty-first century, Be the Solution provides an original perspective on how to create a better world. Focused entirely on entrepreneurial and Conscious Capitalist solutions to the challenges and opportunities facing humanity, Be the Solution shows how the entrepreneurial passion to create a better world, in combination with Conscious Capitalist business practices, can solve far more of the world’s problems than any other approach. In combination with leading Conscious Capitalists such as John Mackey writing on “Conscious Capitalism,” leading social entrepreneurs such as Muhammad Yunus writing on “Social Business,” and leading legal reform experts such as Hernando de Soto writing on “Is Economic Freedom for Everyone?,” entrepreneurial educator Michael Strong lays out a philosophical, social, and legal framework for a FLOW vision through which all problems may be solved entrepreneurially. FLOW, Inc., is an organization cofounded by John Mackey and Michael Strong to promote Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi’s concept of flow as optimal experience—the state in which we are so immersed in challenging, creative activity that we forget that time is passing. To be engaged in flow activities is happiness itself. Whether we are creators of enterprises or entrepreneurially creative within our life as employees, we can embody the entrepreneurial spirit and, in the words of Michelangelo, “criticize by creating.” In addition, FLOW refers to the global flow of goods, services, capital, humans, ideas, and culture, in a positive win-win-win world based on love rather than fear. Combining the best of the positive psychology and human potential movements with the best of free market thinking, FLOW offers a unique perspective on how to Be the Solution in the twenty-first century.

"Blazing Trails" chronicles John Mackey''s life as a lightning rod for attention throughout the 1960s. Mackey refused to remain silent on any topic he felt strongly about--especially anything dealing with justice. As one of Baltimore''s first famous African Americans, he fought for racial and battled for legal equality for pro football players of all color as the first president of the newly merged NFL and AFL National Football Players Associations. More than affecting the freedom of his football-playing brethren, Mackey was a major factor in using his sports fame to change the world around. What Muhammad Ali was to boxing, Arthur Ashe was to tennis, and Bill Russell was to basketball, John Mackey was to football: an African-American star who proved that the world, and not just sports, was going to become a better, more colorful place.
