Sustainable practices—they're how you survive in the corporate world. But what sustainability means for your business remains unclear for many corporate leaders today. To some, corporate survival is doing the right thing, no matter the cost. Others think it's idealistic to always prioritize people and protect the environment. No matter where you stand, one thing is clear: Sustainability is born from market-driven solutions that make the world a better place. In Too Big to Care, Glen Wood explores our corporate future and reveals the business logic behind adding measurable value to society. Investors, employees, and customers benefit from corporate governance that is ethical and transparent. This means better jobs, higher incomes, fewer scandals, and a synergy between family life and workplace values—all attributes of true capitalism. Including Glen's own paternity leave struggle with Mitsubishi and Morgan Stanley that earned him the title, "The Father of Japan," this book takes you on a deep dive into new definitions of progress and profitability and exposes the lessons we can learn from the past.
