The New Pioneers

By Tania Ellis

The New Pioneers is a practical guide for capitalists and idealists on how to navigate in the new economic world order. It is about the social megatrends that are shaping our lives in new ways and creating a new face of capitalism. And it is about the pioneers that are paving the way for the new business revolution: this century’s generation of visionary leaders, social entrepreneurs and social intrapreneurs.

In 2011, The New Pioneers was listed on Cambridge’s international Top 40 list of Sustainability Books alongside authors such as Al Gore, Joseph Stiglitz and Muhammad Yunus.
