Inspired Companies take cues from the new C.E.O.s (Consumers Employees and Outsiders.) on how to create advantage in the 21st Century. Other companies are not listening carefully enough.
REI, Patagonia and Eileen Fisher are a group of fashion brands producing apparel at quality levels they’d be proud to recycle years later and sell again. That’s a refreshing change from years of ‘stack ‘em high, let ‘em fly’ apparel retailing.
We’d also call that Inspired Profit. Profit made without extracting from the planet or humanity.
