Have you ever considered the reality of what it means to be sustainable? Vincent Stanley of Patagonia has always had that as his main mission.

He discusses the company's journey, from innovative initiatives like the Footprint Chronicles to adopting organic cotton, and the impact of the mission statement 'We're in business to save our home planet.'

In this exclusive conversation, we touch on the importance of company culture, storytelling, and the need to integrate human and environmental values into business practice. Through examples and philosophical discussions, Vincent highlights the potential for businesses to create positive social and environmental change.
