Rethinking Business in a Post-Pandemic World

18th Doing Good Doing Well Conference

The global pandemic has exposed the fragility and vulnerability of society and the global economic system while at the same time accelerating awareness of important issues like climate change, sustainability, inequality, and mental health. 

What opportunities exist in this new global landscape for businesses and governments to create positive change? How has the mindset of society shifted and what new habits will define how we conduct business and social programs in the future?
