*A Financial Times Book of the Month* 'The founder of Richer Sounds
is one of the finest entrepreneurs we have.' Archie Norman,
chairman of Marks & Spencer Capitalism has lost its way. Every
week brings fresh news stories about businesses exploiting their
staff, avoiding their taxes, and ripping off their customers. Every
week, public anger at the system grows. Now, one of Britain's
foremost entrepreneurs intervenes to make the case for putting
business back firmly in the service of society, and setting out on
a new path to a kinder, fairer form of capitalism. Drawing on four
decades of hands-on management experience, the founder of Richer
Sounds argues that ethically run businesses are invariably more
efficient, more motivated and more innovative than those that care
only about the bottom line. He uncovers the simple tools that the
best leaders use to make their businesses fair, revealing how
others can follow suit. And he also delves into the big questions
that modern capitalism has to answer if it is to survive and to
thrive. When should - and shouldn't - the state intervene in the
workings of commercial enterprises? What does business as a whole
owe back to the wider community? Is the relationship between
leaders of big corporations and politicians too cosy, and, if so,
what is to be done about it? At heart, The Ethical Capitalist is a
plea for a new sense of moral purpose in business. If that takes
hold, Julian Richer believes, we might just save capitalism from
itself.
