Praise for THE NEW NATURE OF BUSINESS
"Hoffmann and Vanham demonstrate vividly that today's business-as-usual is not sustainable. They provide a compelling blueprint for how companies can reinvent their business models to align with the interests of nature and society--instead of working against them."
--CHRISTINE LAGARDE, President, European Central Bank
"In The New Nature of Business, Hoffmann and Vanham offer a richly illustrated blueprint for purposeful, sustainable business leadership in the 21st century. It's a compelling case for a holistic, integrated approach to doing business and a must-read for any entrepreneur."
--RICHARD BRANSON, Founder, Virgin Group
"I challenge any executive to read this book and return to their desk, unchanged. Honest, hopeful, and human, this book will leave you thrilled at the possibilities offered by a new way of doing business."
--PAUL POLMAN, business leader and co-author, Net Positive
"André Hoffmann takes us from his childhood in the wilds of Camargue, to the boardroom of his family company where he is confronted with what to do about past wrongs--environmental damage and corruption. It helps him shift from 'trying to conform' to having the courage to stand alone (if necessary) for what seems right. It is a tale of the way moments of reckoning help humans build courage to do the right thing, and the kind of vision that can illuminate it."
-- NGAIRE WOODS, Dean of the Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford
"In all the years I've known André, he has always had a mind endlessly focused on the betterment of the world around him. The New Nature of Business urges companies everywhere to seize this moment in history and chart a course for a more sustainable future. I encourage anyone interested in how our global economy can evolve in the face of modern challenges to pick up this book."
--ART LEVINSON, Chairman, Apple; Co-founder and CEO, Calico
