Companies, society, and the earth work together harmoniously and profitably,
People live rich, full lives, and
We leave a legacy which enables our children and their children to have rich, full lives.
We have fully committed ourselves to do everything that we can to help this vision become a reality.
Resources
We have written a book, a course, articles, and a blog on the topic of Sustainability, and books, courses, and articles on other topics as well.
Books
The Squeeze is a business novel about Sustainability. Based on Gary Langenwalter’s decades of experience in manufacturing companies, it tells the story of a mid-sized Midwestern manufacturer whose revenues are declining while costs continue to increase. They turn to Sustainability as a last desperate effort to keep the company open and keep the jobs in their city.
