The B Team Website Up And Running!
John Elkington, author of The Zeronauts, helps launch The B Team website, a non-profit organization led by Sir Richard Branson and Puma chairman Jochen Zeitz. Zeitz is currently co-authoring with Elkington on their new book, Tomorrow’s Bottom Line.
As seen on bteam.org:
The B Team is a not-for-profit initiative that has been formed by a group of global business leaders to create a future where the purpose of business is to be a driving force for social, environmental and economic benefit.
The initial B Leaders include: Shari Arison, Sir Richard Branson, Kathy Calvin, Arianna Huffington, Mo Ibrahim, Guilherme Leal, Strive Masiyiwa, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, François-Henri Pinault, Paul Polman, Ratan Tata, Zhang Yue, Professor Muhammad Yunus and Jochen Zeitz.
