This B Corp Month, we're proud to stand alongside over 8,000 Certified B Corps worldwide brought together by a shared mission to redefine success in business. At Paradox, we believe that being a B Corp is about more than just the outcomes we achieve, it's about how we achieve them. We’ve seen firsthand that great companies prioritize their people, proving that what's good for people is also good for business. Through our work, we are committed to creating innovative talent strategies that not only elevate businesses but also enrich the lives of those who make these businesses thrive. We’re here to show that equitable business practices and success are not mutually exclusive but are, in fact, interconnected. Being a B Corp means we're part of a movement that values people as much as profits, integrating these values into the very fabric of our company. This commitment is why Paradox is a Certified B Corp—we strive to lead by example, demonstrating that the path to success is paved with integrity, sustainability, and respect for all stakeholders. Here’s to shaping a future where businesses are celebrated not just for what they achieve, but for how they achieve it. #BCorpMonth #EthicalBusiness #GoodForPeopleGoodForBusiness

B-Corp month has arrived! Why consider B-Corp? - Because you care about your people - Because you care about the long term sustainability of your business - Because business is agile and should be a force for good right now rather than waiting in the side lines and being told what to do when it's too late. We started our B-Corp Journey in 2019 at Ridgeview Wine Estate when I spent a little time quietly completing the self-assessment questionnaire as I was curious to see what it involved and how we scored. It really opened my eyes and made me realise just how much more we could (and should) be doing and also how it reflected the values of the business. In 2020 as we went into lock down I approached the family, board and SLT about the using this opportunity to focus on the B-Corp accreditation and with their full support we obtained our accreditation in 2022. Everyone in the business was involved in achieving this. It's not the only sustainability accreditation out there but in my opinion it's the most comprehensive, covering all aspects of the business and understanding of the careful balance of being commercially sustainable whilst pushing the boundaries for safeguarding the environment, your community, your people alongside best practice for governance. It also takes into account other accreditations you may have that are particular to your industry, for example, we are accredited under the Sustainable Wines of Great Britain scheme for both our winery and vineyard. There's no cost in completing the self-assessment so why not give it a go?

We’re proudly celebrating our second #BCorpMonth 🎉 And this year’s theme, #ThisWayForward, is something that resonates with us ➡️ Like many B Corps, we’re constantly on the move – and we’ve been busy growing, listening and responding to the ever-changing world around us. Becoming a B Corp brought us into a like-minded community that believes business can – and should – be a force for good. And to do that, we need to make sure that we’re always taking steps forward. “I’m pleased to see we’ve consciously moved forward again. Adding new benefits for our team, improving training and development opportunities, and a constant radar on employee salaries amid the cost of living crisis. We know there is more to be done – and the world needs action on so many levels. So, we’ll continue looking for ways to work for positive change in all areas of our business.” – Siobhan Johnson, Managing Director.

B Corp Month has begun! This year’s campaign theme, This Way Forward, really spoke to me (h/t to the team at Nice and Serious for their work on concept). When I speak to B Corp leaders the conversation always goes to improvement - the ways in which they are reducing carbon in their supply chain, the policies they’re implementing for staff, the tiny tweaks they’ve made to product, packaging and service in order to be ‘be more B Corp’, and the agency that being a B Corp gives staff, customers and the media to demand more from them. And at the same time, I always learn something about the complexity of improvement - the tradeoffs, the unintended consequences, the juggle of balancing the interests of many stakeholders. This Way Forward is a reminder that progress is hard and often involves sitting in an uncomfortable space of honesty and imperfection - and yet we shouldn’t let that stop us continuously moving in the right direction. So what am I excited about this year? 🅱️+ 🅱️  this year will see more collaborations from B Corps than ever as our community grows. 🎨- more visual storytelling than ever, encouraging self expression and self reflection on what progress is. 🍻- as always, I’m excited about getting out and spending some time with lots of B Corps and like-minded people.  😲- unexpected surprises. I've already been delighted by a certain B Corp song from Andy Hawkins. B Corp Month is always a very special moment collaboration across the network so as the month opens I tip my hat to Charlotte Levitt and in the B Lab UK team mates Joanna Adjetey De Palma and Megan Dacey in particular for getting us over the line this year.

The B Corp community is indeed experiencing remarkable growth. With over 8,200 Certified B Corps across 162 industries and 96 countries, the impact of this movement is truly global. It's fascinating to note that consumer awareness of the B Corp label is on the rise, significantly influencing purchasing decisions. In fact, research from The Hartman Group reveals that approximately 67 percent of individuals familiar with B Corp certification express an increased likelihood to purchase B Corp products. This marks a notable 10-point surge since 2019. At our core, our work is with mission driven companies that do or want to really walk the talk. We are especially passionate about collaborating with aspiring B Corps, as well as those already certified as B Corps. We are dedicated to supporting them in amplifying their narratives of transparency, sustainability, and alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. It's a privilege to be part of the journey towards a more ethical and sustainable business landscape, where companies are committed to making a positive impact on the world because after all, it makes a difference to be a good partner with your customers, employees, and community. #bcorporation #bcorp B Lab U.S. & Canada #bgoodpartners
