 THE RESPONSIBILITY REVOLUTION: How the Next Generation of Businesses Will Win argues that for too long, our definition of what constitutes "responsible" corporate behavior has been dangerously timid and blinkered. To confront the economy's and society's daunting challenges, companies must do more than monitor factories, donate to charities, and trumpet efforts to be a little less bad. The responsibility revolution is about reimaging companies from within: innovating new ways of working; instilling a new logic of competing; redefining the very purpose and possibility of business.
