What is the Big-Hearted Business Owner Movement?
This is not…
…a performative movement. This is a movement of action, agency, hard work, and results.
…ESG. Money and meaning have an important relationship with each other. But to us, it is about developing the hearts of owners so they can better decide the most impactful allocations of their own capital.
….to implement institutional change in capitalism. Nothing against those movements, but we are more focused on developing the hearts and minds of entrepreneurs than creating new rules surrounding them.
…a place to complain about the world as it is, this is a place for agency and empowerment to shape it into the world we want it to be.
…a place where we don’t believe in competition. But it is a place where we can distinguish between zero sum games and abundance games… And choose games of abundance at each opportunity.
…a place of judgment or shaming or imposing another’s value system on anyone. This is a place of realizing we are all travelers working to become better humans.
This is…
…about forging a deeper relationship between heart and profitability built on the conviction that they work far better together than separate even within the confines of difficult business decisions.
…for closely held owners of all sizes/stages. All it takes is a willingness to develop wisdom.
…a place where we define our own abundance so that ‘more’ is replaced by ‘purpose.’
…a place of real actionable ideas that have been time tested, sometimes for generations.
…a place of courage in understanding and facing our realities, while maintaining agency to improve upon them.
… a place of developing and empowering our employees with wisdom and courage.
… the place for the big-hearted business owner.
