Business as a Force for Good: The Power of Stakeholder Capitalism
In this powerful episode of Logistics with Purpose, hosts Enrique Alvarez and Kristi Porter sit down with Nathan Havey—co-founder of Stakeholder Business and the creative mind behind the podcast miniseries “10 Things You Should Know About Stakeholder Capitalism” and the documentary Beyond Zero. Nathan shares how a shift from political aspirations to business-led change led him to champion stakeholder capitalism. Inspired by the story of Ray Anderson and Interface, he discusses how companies can drive real impact—not by tacking on sustainability as an afterthought, but by embedding it into the very core of their strategies. If you’ve ever wondered how business can be a true force for good, or how to align profit with purpose, this conversation is for you. Tune in to hear how stakeholder-focused companies can innovate, lead change, and help build a future that works for everyone. This episode is hosted by Enrique Alvarez and Kristi Porter, and produced by Trisha Cordes, Joshua Miranda, and Amanda Luton.
