As to why she joined our community, Maria explains:

“I joined Business of Purpose because I was looking for people and a community that shared my values, passion and enthusiasm for doing business better, for the benefit of the world and the people in it.”

In terms of defining the most prominent challenge the business world is currently facing, she says:

“I think the biggest problem in business today is the complexity of operating a business in 2021, with the combination of fast-changing technologies, working practices, trying to limit environmental degradation, mental health of staff and more. There is so much to balance.”

Maria believes that purpose-driven business is the future for the following reasons:

“Purpose-driven business is the future because the planet cannot cope with infinite growth; growth that is destructive. The effects of climate change are here, and businesses need to be a part of the solution, rather than profiting from creating the problem.”
