“Beyond the duties of care, loyalty and obedience, there is, I suggest, a fourth board duty: the duty of imagination.”

“Global corporations have the human capital, the financial resources, the technology, the international footprint, the power of markets and the profit motivation to build a better world. NGOs will be essential partners...Governments will be essential partners...By engaging together through an iterative process, we will achieve "A Better World.”
