When Patagonia made headlines in 2022 for “donating itself to the planet,”, it challenged the way we think about business governance, bringing forth important questions about who really owns a business, and what happens when we shift power and control.
In this episode of Forces For Good, we dive into those questions and more with Greg Curtis, Executive Director of the Holdfast Collective, the organization now stewarding Patagonia’s purpose now and into the future. We also hear from Mark Hand, a researcher exploring how alternative ownership structures – like employee ownership and cooperatives – are transforming businesses from the inside out.
Listen now to explore:
-
Why ownership structures like employee ownership and cooperatives are reshaping the future of work
-
What shifting power to communities means for building a fairer, more inclusive economy
