This has become a familiar refrain since the global economic downturn and has worsened through the pandemic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe young of today tend to regard wealth and its creation as alien to the society in which they wish to live, rather than essential to its well-being. Yet, they also regard personal debt, through credit cards and consumer loans, as a matter of entitlement, rather than burden, and have lost the frugal habit of saving that helped their parents' generation build better futures for themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis seminal critique, written from the point of view of a deep admirer of entrepreneurship and private sector investment as a proven path to innovation, social progress and prosperity, argues that businesses always operate in a social context - that a 'good' business in a moral sense can also, in a perfect world, be a business that richly rewards its creators and backers - so long as the basic principles are right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePutting aside the nonsense of corporate virtue signalling, Vander Weyer formulates a number of core principles, separating out 'the good' and 'the bad' in today's corporate arena - and placing the spotlight fiercely on a third element: 'the greedy'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46852913463454,"sku":"ADS-9781785905940","price":39.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781785905940.jpg?v=1779064589","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781785905940","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
