The B Team

01 / 03

Our economic model is broken.

But we can build a new one that is sustainable, trusted and strong.

The public is calling for it. Future generations depend on it.

It’s time to end business as usual. We believe in the power of bold and courageous collaboration.

Together, we can create a new system that benefits people and the planet.

By continuously setting higher standards with humanity at their core, we can redefine what accountability and success mean for business.

Our current economic model is broken. But it did not break itself. And it will not repair itself. We, as private sector and civil society leaders, envision the way forward as a better way of doing business. That’s why we’re working to shift the culture of accountability in business to include not only numbers and performance, but people and planet.

We acknowledge that while we are part of the problem, we have the responsibility—and the power—to lead on the solution. We will create new norms of corporate leadership that go beyond commitment and toward fundamental transformation today, for a better tomorrow.
