Conscious Capitalism
ByPublisher Description
As seen on Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday
A New York Times and Wall Street Journal Bestseller
In this book, Whole Foods Market cofounder John Mackey and professor and Conscious Capitalism, Inc. cofounder Raj Sisodia argue for the inherent good of both business and capitalism. Featuring some of today’s best-known companies, they illustrate how these two forces can—and do—work most powerfully to create value for all stakeholders: including customers, employees, suppliers, investors, society, and the environment.
These “Conscious Capitalism” companies include Whole Foods Market, Southwest Airlines, Costco, Google, Patagonia, The Container Store, UPS, and dozens of others. We know them; we buy their products or use their services. Now it’s time to better understand how these organizations use four specific tenets—higher purpose, stakeholder integration, conscious leadership, and conscious culture and management—to build strong businesses and help advance capitalism further toward realizing its highest potential.
As leaders of the Conscious Capitalism movement, Mackey and Sisodia argue that aspiring leaders and business builders need to continue on this path of transformation—for the good of both business and society as a whole.
At once a bold defense and reimagining of capitalism and a blueprint for a new system for doing business grounded in a more evolved ethical consciousness, this book provides a new lens for individuals and companies looking to build a more cooperative, humane, and positive future.

“: scoffs :
would like to see updates to these highly theoretical ideas 8 years after the Amazon acquisition and more recently, stuff like this - Amazon plans to absorb Whole Foods' entire workforce as part of 'Project Cremini' : r/business https://share.google/aeAnuqrGa1SErRL8P”
“This book shows how capitalism and for profit business have positively changed the world, and creates a framework for how they can continue to positively shape our society.
Recommended for business leaders looking for ideas to make their business better - for owners, for employees, for suppliers, and for your community.
Recommended for people jaded by capitalism hoping to learn that there are people and organizations trying to make money while making a positive impact.”
“Such an amazing read for anyone who wants to start a business and start creating a business model that not only gives back to our community, worker, and people, but also our environment and earth! All this while building profit through a spiritual lens. Conscious Capitalism gave me a framework to lead authentically, grow sustainably, and build a business that reflects my values. It taught me how it’s more than a business philosophy, it’s a call to lead with vision and courage.”
