“A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.” This Greek proverb got airtime today during a deep, insightful conversation with TriplePundit's Mary Mazzoni and Daniel Blackman, founder of the Atlanta-based nonprofit Renaissance94. In the first installment of the new 3BL video series, "What the...?," the former regional administrator for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency offered advice for business leaders facing a tsunami of change, rather than gradual transformation. "Take the opportunity not to point fingers, but to look within to make decisions that you think will not just impact your bottom line but will have a tremendous impact on the next generation," Blackman said. Set aside 15 minutes to watch and listen to Daniel and Mary. Great session. #sustainability #leadership #businessethics #responsiblebusiness https://lnkd.in/eJEnqiVf
