Today, people aren't afraid to say, \u003ci\u003eScrew business as usual!\u003c\/i\u003e-and show they mean it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"It's amazing how I keep coming across the same message, from bustling global cities to the townships of South Africa to small villages in India to G8 climate conferences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"It's no coincidence that so many people are talking about the same thing. There's a real buzz in the air. Change is happening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"People often associate me with challenges, with trying to break records while sailing the Atlantic or flying in a jet stream in a balloon or going into space with Virgin Galactic. But this book isn't just about fun and adventure and exceeding one's wildest dreams. It's a different kind of business book. It's about revolution. My message is a simple one: business as usual isn't working. In fact, business as usual is wrecking this planet. Resources are being used up; the air, the sea, the land are all heavily polluted. The poor are getting poorer. Many are dying of starvation or because they can't afford a dollar a day for lifesaving medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"But my message is not all doom and gloom. I will describe how I think business can help fix things and create a more prosperous world for everyone. I happen to believe in business because I believe that business is a force for good. By that I mean that \u003ci\u003edoing good is good for business\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Doing the right thing can be profitable. I will show how this works step by step in the following pages. It's the core message of this book. I often say, 'Have fun and the money will come.' I still believe that, but now I am saying, '\u003ci\u003eDo good, have fun and the money will come\u003c\/i\u003e.'\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Portfolio","offers":[{"title":"Screw Business as Usual | Richard Branson | Hardcover | 9781591844341 | Used: Like New | Business \u0026 Personal Finance 1740980","offer_id":50884046782722,"sku":"1740980","price":26.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/51LdSzE2F9L.jpg?v=1793081412","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/screw-business-as-usual","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
