In the news
On September 13th, 50 years after Milton Friedman’s post in the New York Times, the same newspaper released a full page ad in its Sunday paper stating that it is time for a RESET. Imperative 21 represents more than 70,000 businesses, 20 million employees, $6.6 trillion in revenue, and $15 trillion in assets under management. It is a business-led network driving economic systems change. Conscious Capitalism, Inc. and its local chapters like CCSD, are proud to be a Network Stewards of this imperative.
We believe the imperative of the 21st century is to RESET our economic system so its purpose is to create value for all stakeholders while stewarding the natural and social systems on which healthy markets and all life depends. Let’s RESET. Together.
Impact

You may have wondered, “who is actually part of the CCSD Board?” These individuals inspire us every day. It is a pleasure to start to share more with you about these amazing people. First up is Johannah Warren, our Director of Volunteers. Read more about what Conscious Capitalism means to her and what drives her. Here is a little teaser…
“It [Conscious Capitalism] is a concept, a collective of like-minded individuals, and a movement I am proud to get behind. I believe that this realization will catch fire, and when it does our society will prosper from the economic freedom and security that Conscious Capitalism supports.”
