“The joy it brings, to be able to have a business that counts to people, and to me, and for people to be able to make what one of my employees called a “right living”… to work for a company knowing we’re never going to get rich, but, we are going to work in a way that makes us happy at the end of the day for what we did. Nobody goes home worried about the consequences for the work we do. It’s a good living for people to have.
That is value enough.. because if there is enough of us, that will make a HUGE difference.”
– Carole Koury- Founder, Sow True Seeds, Asheville, NC
From the documentary: “Real Value” – Economics, Sustainability, Social Entrepreneurship
Real Value is an award-winning economics documentary that delivers a refreshing meditation on how business can be used to create value beyond profit; connecting motivational stories from social entrepreneurs working in agriculture, apparel, insurance, and biofuel, with the captivating science behind our perception of value from world-renowned professor of psychology and behavioral economics, Dan Ariely.
The film serves as inspiration for any business owner, entrepreneur, or customer who is looking to better understand what happens when a business puts people, planet, and profit on equal footing.
