Free market capitalism is one of humanity's greatest inventions and the greatest source of prosperity the world has ever seen. But it's also on the verge of destroying the planet and destabilising society in its single-minded pursuit of maximising shareholder value.

Rebecca Henderson, McArthur University Professor at Harvard University, argues for a new framework; one that can simultaneously make a positive societal impact by confronting the realities of the environment and the need to address social and economic inequality, while also delivering sustained financial performance to ensure economic growth that brings prosperity and well-being to society as a whole.

Drawing on the lessons of companies from around the world who are acting on this responsibility - who are not only surviving but are thriving, becoming leaders in their industries and beginning to drive the wheels of change - Professor Henderson proves that this is not only a moral imperative for business but also the only way to remain competitive in our changing world.

Dignified, thorough, authoritative, wise

I greatly appreciated both the rigorous scholarship of this work, as well as its sober yet nonetheless compassionate and responsible message. The urgency call to reframe prosperity and the means to secure it in ways that consider and redress the threat to our species and our beautiful home planet is suffused with ample case studies, data and grace.
