Impacto; Um novo modelo de capitalismo para gerar mudanças verdadeiras no mundo

Rate this book
A ideia do autor deste livro é levar o capital a promover
impacto, além de lucro. Uma reação em cadeia, que seja
capaz de levar inovações a todas as partes interessadas,
para enfrentarmos em larga escala os maiores desafios
sociais e ambientais da atualidade. Que seja capaz de
transformar a mentalidade e o comportamento de
investidores, filantropos, empreendedores, organizações
sociais, grandes empresas, governos e do público em geral,
e que garanta uma posição de destaque para o impacto nas
nossas tomadas de decisão. Sir Ronald Cohen nos propõe
um alinhamento entre o setor privado e o governo, levando
os dois a trabalharem em harmonia em vez de em oposição,
mobilizando capital e potencial inovador para a solução de
questões sociais e ambientais. A Revolução do Impacto, aliás,
já está transformando a maneira de como pensamos sobre
responsabilidade social, modelos de negócios e investimento.
Ela já começa a mudar nossas economias, fazendo com
que se tornem motores poderosos para o capital gerar
impacto positivo paralelamente ao rendimento financeiro.
Em diversos pontos do planeta, já podemos ver os sinais
de que ela chegou para marcar o século XXI, da mesma
maneira que a revolução tecnológica foi um marco no século
XX. As vidas de bilhões de pessoas dependem do sucesso
dessa nova revolução. A nossa sociedade nunca teve outra
oportunidade tão tangível para fazer a diferença de uma
forma tão transformadora, e cada um de nós tem um papel
importante a desempenhar para que ela realmente aconteça.

It‘s a good book and it spills out an interesting vision. However, it is not sufficiently critical about the vision spelt out for me to be able to support and argue for the ideas.

I believe in impact capitalism

This book offers inspiration and a broad and relatively quick overview of impact investing and the larger idea of impact capitalism. I think it’s a good read for those completely new to those terms. If you’re already familiar with impact investing, you might find the book lacking in depth. I was hoping for more substantial case studies, but overall I recommend this read.

Such an amazing book! It has a great flow and the reading is easy, even though it covers so many topics and concepts that could be hard to understand.

It is very inspiring, presents several practical examples and cases that allow the reader to have a deep understanding of the Impact Investing scenario and Impact Driven ventures.

One of the best readings I have done over the last years, and definitely a must-read for all interested in the topic.

Important book about how we can reshape private and public investing to consider things that are not purely profit. Modern day ESG investing has A LOT of flaws but modern day problems will not be solved through a pure shareholder capitalism model. Need to align capitalistic and human behaviour incentives with goals that are good for planet and people. I will dedicate my life to this stuff.

I found this book to be accessible, sharp and intriguing in the ideas and solutions proposed. Great primer on the future of impact investing for laypeople and finance professionals alike.

Sehr interessanter Ansatz Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft neu auszurichten und dabei die erfolgreichen Ansätze des Marktes zu nutzen. Warum gerade Nestle als ein Beispiel funktionierenden Impacts genannt wird, bleibt für mich allerdings schleierhaft.
