Really bad print quality
The paper is thin, text is printed almost a cm close to the paper’s borders.

Absolutely loved this - the balance of commercial success with the empathy for people and planet was a pleasure to discover. Not just a business book, as intertwined with the authors love of the outdoors. Left me considering seriously what is truly sustainable growth, and how organisations can truly balance results across a spectrum of financial, ethical and human KPIs.

Um dos melhores livros sobre empreendedorismo e cultura de empresa que eu ja li. Esse livro inspirou muito a marca Reserva de roupas, o Roni. Ele com certeza faz voce repensar como construir uma cultura na sua empresa, pensando no futuro, em como devemos tratar principalmente o meio ambiente e todas as outras coisas que estao ligadas a ele. Vale cada palavra.

Una meravigliosa scoperta, un libro che avrei voluto conoscere prima. Personalmente ho trovato un po' pesante la prima parte più narrativa mentre la seconda parte riguardante le filosofie aziendali è davvero interessante con spunti di riflessione ad ogni angolo. Consigliato al 100% per chiunque ami la natura e gli sport.
