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.

Updated and expanded, the New York Times bestseller that helped companies such as Whole Foods Market, Patagonia, Microsoft, and others build profitable businesses while creating value for all stakeholders.When Conscious Capitalism was first published, the ideas it contained were considered radical by many. Among the most radical is the strong belief in the extraordinary power of capitalism to do more good for people in a sustained manner than any other social or economic system invented by humankind. This message has been an inspiration to many business leaders and entrepreneurs who want to have a positive impact on the world—while also building thriving businesses that provide excellent economic returns.In this classic book, now updated and expanded, Whole Foods Market cofounder John Mackey and Conscious Capitalism, Inc., cofounder Raj Sisodia show how many of today's most admired companies—Microsoft, Costco, UPS, Patagonia, and many others—are building strong and profitable businesses while creating value for all stakeholders, including customers, employees, suppliers, investors, society, and the environment.For the first time, Mackey and Sisodia introduce a new principle of conscious capitalism—conscious strategy—showing how companies today are competing on caring, culture, and joy. Mackey and Sisodia also tackle the challenges that conscious businesses face, including potential backlash, and they walk us through what happens when conscious businesses lose their way and how companies can recover in ways that build stakeholder trust. The authors also address the role of AI in helping companies operate in a more conscious way while also elevating performance.With new case studies and examples—and new tools and resources to help businesses transition to a more conscious model—Conscious Capitalism remains the essential authoritative resource for individuals and companies looking to build a more cooperative, humane, and positive future.
