S3:E31: Why We Need Responsible Companies to Create a Better World of Work
Manage episode 385055474 series 3459078
Vincent Stanley is the Director of Philosophy at Patagonia, and the Co-Author of the book, The Future of The Responsible Company.
In order to create a better world of work, it’s clear that organizations, and leaders specifically have a role to play in creating cultures and environments that drive performance and empower people. Patagonia has long been viewed as a leader of companies who are trying to blend people, purpose, and profits, and “do well while doing good” but the journey has not always been easy nor straightforward.
During our conversation, Vincent spoke about the history of Patagonia, and how they think differently about their role as an organization, in the world, in their community and with their customers. Vincent spoke about some of the ways that Patagonia views their culture, their secrets to creating work that fuels their people, and his guidance on how other organizations can embrace becoming a responsible organization.
