Sam Polk Boeken
Deze auteur onderzoekt een nieuwe definitie van succes die een bewuste bijdrage aan de wereld omvat. Voorheen gedreven door persoonlijke ambitie op Wall Street, begrijpt hij nu dat voldoening voortkomt uit werk dat ertoe doet, de wereld verbetert en mensen in nood helpt. Zijn missie is om inclusief kapitalisme te bevorderen dat iedereen ten goede komt, in de overtuiging dat bedrijven problemen moeten oplossen in plaats van ze te creëren. Hij wil helpen bij het opbouwen van een nieuwe economie die de dynamiek van het kapitalisme benut en tegelijkertijd de onderlinge verbondenheid van een echte democratie bevordert waarin elke stem even zwaar weegt.
