With social chasms widening and climate change intensifying, it has never been more important to reframe what it means for businesses to “do good” in an ever-changing world. Today, we’re joined by Clay Brown from B Lab Global to discuss how we can transform the global economy from a system that profits a few to one that benefits all people, communities, and the planet.

As Head of Standards, Certification, and Product Delivery for B Lab, Clay plays a critical role in evolving, growing, and scaling new and existing programs, products, and tools, including the B Corp Certification, which B Lab is perhaps best known for. In this episode, he outlines the evolving B Corp Certification standards and explains how B Lab is adapting and advancing its performance requirements to not only meet the needs of the moment but also optimize the movement for the future.
