"Over the last four years, Virgin Unite worked with Richard and former PUMA CEO Jochen Zeitz to incubate a new global leadership initiative with a single purpose: to make business work better.

"Launched in October 2012 The B Team is a group of global business leaders who share similar views about the need to transform business, delivering a “Plan B” that champions concrete solutions to help make capitalism a driving force for social, environmental and economic benefit.

"Together, these B Team Leaders will use their collective voice, experience, entrepreneurial skills and influence to undertake challenges that will help shape a future of business motivated by people, planet and profit." [1]
