This lecture in leadership from the Wharton School is a valuable case study in the challenges and rewards faced by the former CEO of a company that recognizes the importance of environmental and social issues in business success. Kristine Tompkins explains how clothing company Patagonia prospered financially for decades while adhering to environmental responsibilities, later stumbling under a new management team and ultimately recovering while keeping corporate values in tact. Tompkins' message is loud and clear -- "Unless there is a willingness to act responsibly and not just for the economic benefit of the shareholders...you are not going to get good results."
