Summary

Business today is at the forefront of social change and personal transformation. While past generations saw organizations consuming people and the environment in their soulless quest for ever-increasing profit and growth, a new generation of business leaders has a fresh new vision. Today's companies, schools, and nonprofits are run differently, think differently, and engage human creativity at a whole new level.
