Description
In The New Capitalist Manifesto, economic strategist Umair Haque argues that business as usual has outgrown the old paradigm of short-term growth, competition at all costs, adversarial strategy, and pushing costs onto future generations. These outworn assumptions are good for creating only thin” valuegains which can be in large part illusory and produce diminishing returns once a year.
For thick” valueenduring, meaningful, sustainable advantage that deeply benefits the larger societyHaque details five new cornerstones of prosperity within the twenty-first century:
Loss advantage: From value chains to worth cycles
Responsiveness: From value propositions to worth conversations
Resilience: From approach to philosophy
Creativity: From protecting a marketplace to completing a marketplace
Difference: From goods to betters
The New Capitalist Manifesto makes a passionate, razor-sharp economic case that these methods will produce a more enduring prosperity for business in addition to society.
