Summary

1576750027 The Fourth Wave foresees a radically different future.a future in which business principles, concern for the environment, personal integrity, and spiritual values are integrated. It looks toward a future in which today's corporations serve both local and global society, advocate a redefinition of wealth, are innovators in improving the health and well being of employees and their families, and are pioneers in the appropriate use of technologies.
