On Practicing Community Capitalism


"Practicing community capitalism is about building and sustaining whole wealth: a broader notion of wealth that embraces natural, economic, human and social capital.

Creating whole wealth is obviously about more than making money. It's about having abundance in all the things we care about in life. Sure, some forms of wealth can be measured in output, productivity increases and shareholder return. But whole wealth includes the riches of family and friends -- of healthy workplaces, neighborhoods and natural areas. It considers the well being in our schools, civic spaces and public places. Ultimately, healthy, wealthy communities are places where each of us has the ability to fully express our gifts and promise in a sustainable natural world.

Reflecting on the whole wealth compass (below), please consider how your choices impact whole community wealth. Use it at home, work and in the civic sphere."
