    Half a trillion dollars. That’s the amount spent on marketing worldwide, every year. There is power in that amount—and responsibility.


    By creating new measures of economic success—accounting for the well-being of all stakeholders and connecting short-term actions with long-term goals—companies will be forced to think about the future today.

    Half a trillion dollars. That’s the amount spent on marketing worldwide, every year. There is power in that amount—and responsibility.


    By creating new measures of economic success—accounting for the well-being of all stakeholders and connecting short-term actions with long-term goals—companies will be forced to think about the future today. When executed with a compelling set of incentives, some of these approaches can even create widespread change among partners and suppliers. 

    But this work is just beginning: Each idea requires a more detailed and practical plan, and a way to connect them into one comprehensive effort. The success of this new strategy for change will depend on its execution, which is in turn contingent on the ease and efficiency of implementation. This approach envisions a framework that merges the best of human effort with the best in technology to effect change for the better.
