The Future of the Responsible Company with Vincent Stanley, Patagonia

Vincent Stanley is the Director of Philosophy at Patagonia having worked there since the very start of the company, holding various roles in sales and marketing, and over the last decade, operating as the Director of Philosophy. He's informally known as the chief storyteller of the iconic company. The occasion for our conversation is the publication of Vincent's latest book with Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard, "The Future of the Responsible Company", which is a must read. We start out discussing Vincent's connection with nature and then dig a bit deeper on some of the key topics in the book like the importance of community and having a sense of place, how we can connect industry leaders with nature, and changing the pace and language of business. Massive thanks to Stephanie and Gin from Vincent's team and Patagonia for making this happen. And to Vincent for not just taking the time to chat but being an incredible leader and example for the business world.Order 'The Future of the Responsible Company' - https://bookshop.org/a/96865/9781952338113 Patagonia's Chairman on Why Milton Friedman's Shareholder Focus is Wrong - https://www.thefreelibrary.com/Patagonia+Chairman+Explains+His+Company%27s+View+of+Capitalism%3A...-a0756931850 Aldo Leopold's Land Ethic - https://www.aldoleopold.org/about/the-land-ethic/ Follow Ecosystem Member on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/ecosystemmember/ This is a public episode.
