Better World Books and the Triple Bottom Line
內容大綱
Better World Books (BWB) was founded as a for-profit "B corporation" committed to a triple bottom line of financial, social, and environmental performance. Early success with an innovative business model leveraging social entrepreneurship allowed BWB to grow revenue to over $80 million in 2014. BWB now faces challenges expanding further while sustaining their social-entrepreneurship business model. BWB currently faces such issues as narrow margins, shrinking supply, low brand awareness, and even copycat competitors. Chief Executive Office Mike Miller must decide how to handle these issues in a way that keeps BWB competitive in the crowded used-book industry and also creates value for all BWB's stakeholders.
