Summary
"Based on more than a decade of research and featuring interviews with leaders of dozens of leading global companies, Christopher Marquis introduces readers to a revolution started by the founders of B Lab. Their mission was to create a new corporate form-the public benefit corporation-that places social benefits and the rights of workers, the community, and the environment on equal footing with financial shareholders. Driven by B Lab, 34 U.S. states have passed benefit corporation legislation and more than 5,000 U.S. companies have incorporated using the benefit corporation form.
