Social Capital

Editor's Note

Welcome to the latest edition of the Social Capital Newsletter. Social Capital is an intangible asset at the heart of a new and dynamic view of success, one that is changing business and the world as we know it. Sometimes, the best solutions to the world's problems come not from government or nonprofits but instead from private-sector companies incentivized to find answers. In "The Capitalist Revolution To Save Humanity," we look at some of the innovative ideas percolating up from Social Capital companies in the private sector, shining a spotlight on companies such as Bombas, CRDC, Cotopaxi, Jopwell and HeartPoint Global. If you're looking for ideas on how to change the world, one company at a time, you won't want to miss this inspiring feature.

If you're a big reader--and most leaders are--you probably find yourself toting around at least one book at all times. Malia's recycled cement book bags ($36) are both environmentally conscious and unique, with each product made through a Fair Trade group in Cambodia. Even better, each Fair Trade group is woman-led and has its own social mission, supporting Social Capital values.

THE BUSINESS OPTIMIZER

Many CEOs are embracing the idea that people are an investment, not a cost on the balance sheet, when they hire. The latest evidence: 3/4 of business leaders said their talent acquisition strategies are more about total value creation for the company than cost savings, according to a survey by Randstad Enterprises.
