Rethinking Capitalism: A Conversation with the Godfather of Sustainability (with John Elkington)
Manage episode 493443942 series 2946488
In this episode of the Positive Leadership Podcast, we sit down with John Elkington, the trailblazing thinker who coined the concept of the Triple Bottom Line and helped shape the global sustainability agenda for over four decades.
From his early influences to his latest provocations like Green Swans and Tickling Sharks, John shares his journey, his frameworks, and his vision for a future where business becomes a force for regeneration—not just resilience.
What does it take to lead systemic change?
Why did he “recall” the Triple Bottom Line?
And how do we tickle the sharks—aka the world’s most powerful institutions—into shifting course?
A powerful, thoughtful, and sometimes surprising conversation with one of the world’s most influential sustainability voices.
