This will be a great webinar! I have great respect for Larraine Segil and John Driver, NACD.DC. It is critical that #boarddirectors have different backgrounds and share different points of view respectfully. These differences improve the organization's strategy and risk oversight. #corporategovernance #DirectorExcellence

A COMPASSIONATE ECONOMY IS IT POSSIBLE? Last Friday, I had the privilege of attending a thought-provoking discussion that challenged conventional business models. Melanie Rieback and Alison Holloway explained how their company business models work with an approach that challenges the traditional drive to extract wealth from production, offering instead a more balanced, equitable, environmentally sound and compassionate way of doing business. 🤷♀️ What is it about this model that is compassionate ➡ It's a business model that prioritises people, the environment and society over profits, enabling everyone involved - employees, owners, customers, the business and even the economy to thrive without causing the harm of traditional business models. ➡ Staff and owners alike earn a fair and livable wage, but no one becomes 'unnaturally wealthy', as Melanie puts it. At the same time, staff don't get terminated for a sniff of a slight boost to the company's profit. ➡ Customers are charged market rates, with provisions to subsidise those who need the service but can't afford to pay as much.   ➡  No shareholder's interest in extracting wealth from the business is prioritised above all else. Measures are put in place to stop this eventuality from arising.         🤔 If you find this business model as intriguing as me, I highly recommend watching Melanie's TED talk. For those who are truly enthusiastic, Melanie's LinkedIn page hosts a series of 8 YouTube clips, each over an hour long, on how to build a non-extractive business. 🙏 A big that you to Antony McMullen, FGIA, FRSA, for your inspiring wrap-up at the end of the panel discussion and to the 888 Co-operative Causeway Limited and RSA Oceania for making the event happen and Clare Fountain, GAICD, for being an excellent panel facilitator Why we need to reform the startup business model | Melanie Rieback | TEDxBerlin (youtube.com)
