This interview cuts straight to the heart of self-compassion, revealing it as not just a personal virtue but a critical life skill as we have a profound dialogue with Kristin Neff, a pioneering figure in compassion research. Kristin shatters the notion that self-compassion is a luxury, framing it instead as a necessity for anyone striving to thrive in the throes of life's challenges. She presents compelling evidence from her studies, including one that revolutionizes our understanding of how self-compassion can significantly elevate athletic performance, challenging the stoic, grit-your-teeth dogma that pervades our culture.

Join us for a frank discussion on ESG, climate investing, and the need for government policy through taxes and subsidies to push companies into doing the right thing for the climate crisis. As our guest Ken Pucker, former COO of Timberland, says, ESG has no impact on saving the planet. Ken talks about the challenges for all of us in understanding when and where real Capital is invested in impacting climate change. Ken argues that better accounting on externalities alone is not enough. We need to price externalities to drive real behaviour change. Hence, the role of government policy is to play a role with taxation and subsidies to reward good behaviour and punish bad. A Podcast by Tec Sounds.

Charles says “We (Patagonia) think companies should stand for something.

Now the Board and executives at Patagonia need to ask explicitly, how is this good for the planet! Hear Charles talk about his views on the need for long-term thinking and how we need to look at the 'full cost' of the products we consume- what is the actual footprint of our consumption? As conscious consumers, we need to focus on owning fewer things but better things- Patagonia strives to make the best raincoat- and make it to last and be reused and recycled too!

We also explore how marketing has evolved- how purposeful brands are about movement-making that engages stakeholders in activism with the brand. He explains how this is so easy and yet so very hard to do in today’s marketplace – the key is consistency. A Podcast by Tec Sounds.

Front-line innovation, expansion into 19 countries, developing the largest market for French films outside of France and the second largest Cinema company in the world, hear from Cinepolis COO Miguel Mier how it happened. He talks of how the development of a caring culture drives innovation and customer satisfaction--- listen to the story of the piece of cardboard from a front-line worker! Miguel highlights the value of having a long-term perspective, aligned capital and an aligned Board and executive team. While the ‘financial experts’ pushed for more leverage to boost returns, the family self-financed the business – a critical element when others in the industry stumbled and went into bankruptcy or near bankruptcy driven by heavy debt burdens post- covid.

Pete Stravos at KKR is leading the way in driving outstanding returns through a focus on employee ownership and building great cultures. Simple formula- challenging to implement! Drive engagement and align incentives for success--- make front line workers care about the outcome and give them life changing opportunities to build financial wealth. The opportunity is huge! Only 20% of employees are actively engaged at work, the average turnover rate in the US is 40 % per year, and the Treasury Department estimates 70% of American workers are financially illiterate. Into this world comes Stravos with a plan to address these ills and make great returns for his investors. As he says, hard core capitalist love this because of the returns- they don’t have to buy into the philosophy. But those that understand the benefits of doing business this way love it!
Peter summarizes, “We will exit 8-10 straight 3x deals, which I think in the history of private equity has never been done. I don't think any industry vertical at any firm ever will say, you know, 10, straight triples! And so I think it's going to be hard for people to say that this is hurting investors, that its’ doing anything other than driving great returns. A Podcast by Tec Sounds.

Join David Sloan Wilson this week for a fascinating deep dive into the science supporting Conscious Capitalism.

One of the Social Innovators of the Year 2023 by the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship, he discusses the need for companies to embrace Open Hiring® to fulfil the dramatically changing labor market. Open Hiring® battles the current labor shortage by offering work on a first-come, first-hired basis, with no interviews, background checks, or resumes.

This week join the chairperson of Patagonia, Charles Conn, as we discuss the change in ownership at Patagonia- a company now responsible to the planet! Charles says “We (Patagonia) think companies should stand for something. And we're not afraid to say that we don't think companies should be neutral creators of profit that distribute that profit to shareholders”. Now the Board and executives at Patagonia need to ask explicitly, how is this good for the planet! Hear Charles talk about his views on the need for long-term thinking and how we need to look at the 'full cost' of the products we consume- what is the actual footprint of our consumption? As conscious consumers, we need to focus on owning fewer things but better things- Patagonia strives to make the best raincoat- and make it to last and be reused and recycled too!

Join David Sloan Wilson this week for a fascinating deep dive into the science supporting Conscious Capitalism.

Or are you in the ‘old mode’ of leaders who focus on tasks and compliance (hit the targets I give you) at the expense of relationships and miss the opportunity to create psychological safety and enable others to takes risks, and learn and adapt quickly to changes in the business environment and customer needs.
