#89 - Raj Sisodia on Conscious Capitalism, Healing Personal and Collective Trauma, and Wise Fools of Tough Love

Described as an “Intellectual Shaman” in a book with that title, Raj Sisodia has been on a mission to bring caring, humanity and healing to business and capitalism since the 2007 publication of his groundbreaking book Firms of Endearment: How World Class Companies Profit from Passion and Purpose. A founding member and Chairman Emeritus of the Conscious Capitalism movement, Raj Sisodia is FEMSA Distinguished University Professor of Conscious Enterprise and Chairman of the Conscious Enterprise Center at Tecnológico de Monterrey in Mexico.

Raj is co-author of the New York Times bestseller Conscious Capitalism (2013) and Wall Street Journal bestseller Everybody Matters (2015). Raj received an honorary doctorate from Johnson & Wales University and has served on the boards of Mastek and The Container Store.

Most recently, Raj authored the book ‘Awaken’, which we explore at length in this conversation. I highly recommend engaging with Raj’s book and his work. 

Additionally, I’ll be donating to and raising awareness for the charity or organization of my guest’s choice with each episode now. This episode, the organization is called Pratham USA. Any and all donations make a difference!
