Conscious Capitalism
Everything we do can be done
consciously or unconsciously. Capitalism,
the process whereby capital is mobilized on behalf
of realizing some projects instead of others
to produce goods and services for people, can
be practiced either consciously or unconsciously. We
believe that the price system should be a guide,
not a master – capital
should
be mobilized on behalf of making the world a
better place, and we work
to support those who aspire to do so, as well
as discuss the extent to
which existing
mobilizations
of capital
contribute
to the
greater good.
FLOW co-founder John Mackey, CEO of Whole Foods market, articulates
an understanding of Conscious
Capitalism, as it pertains to the functioning
of a corporation.
We are developing a Conscious Capitalism Program with events, publications,
media, and more. Stay tuned for news and developments
soon.
