Yvon Chouinard and Patagonia can teach so much to the world. "Let my people go surfing" is such an inspiring book.
i have been blown away by this guy and his corporation for many years now. top class guy.
Incredible to look back at this piece of history! When he gave this speech it was in 2008! Right when the economy fell! He even said “ were close to using bankers”. But as History went they didn’t! They stuck to their values and ethics and came out higher then ever! This is one of my favorite speeches on business, truly awesome!
This guy makes way more sense to me than ANYTHING I ever heard at The W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University.
