The Fourth Bottom Line by Paul Hargreaves
Are you looking for a more compassionate, caring and loving way to lead?
Do you want to be a leader that makes a meaningful difference, who opposes injustice and strives to make the world a better place?
In this unique, empowering and inspiring guide, Business Leader and BCorp Ambassador Paul Hargreaves challenges you to banish outdated, paternalistic, 'command and control' leadership and instead embrace the positive, proactive and purpose-led styles that have the power to energise, empower, elevate and change the world.
Using an enlightening and thought-provoking mix of stories, quotes and case-studies, Paul will guide you on a journey through 50 essential leadership qualities. Day by day he'll equip you with ingenious ideas, inspiration and the mindset you need to become a leader who:
Nurtures, supports and cherishes the planet as well as your people. Releases love, compassion and care throughout your organisation. Challenges the status quo and is a catalyst for positive change. Uses empathy, trust and mutual respect to drive success and encourage the best in others.By becoming a genuinely dynamic and human leader who's driven by principle, purpose and passion, you'll make a more profound impact on your business and the world as you create a legacy to be proud of.
About the Author: How can businesses make a really positive difference in the world and help reverse the injustice that seems to be increasing year by year? I started my business 20 years ago with the aim of changing the world for better and ambitiously took on three addicts within my first five employees. I realised fairly soon that perhaps it may be better to establish a sustainable business first before taking on the world. And that is exactly what we have started to do. I am CEO of fine food wholesaler, Cotswold Fayre, supplying many retail outlets with artisan food and drink throughout the UK & Ireland. I have always believed that successful businesses value their own people and those within our supply chain and are passionate custodians of our planet. I have also for many years invested my time and company resources into an orphanage and schools in one of the poorest parts of the world, Western Kenya. To my delight I discovered there were many other companies who believed the same as us and Cotswold Fayre became one of the founding UK B Corporations. B Corps are companies that meet the highest standards of overall social and environmental performance and are the voice of business for the future as businesses realise more that their purpose is to be a force for good. My first book, 'Forces for Good', was Management Today's second top "Business Book to Read in 2019" and gives examples of the changes that we and many other businesses in the UK have made in order to create a better world. There are loads of practical examples of how you can do your part whether you are a business owner, start-up, manager or influencer within your business to improve your triple bottom line (people, planet, profit). I am very aware personally that attempting to change the world involves personal change too and this is the subject of my second book, The Fourth Bottom Line due for publication in May 2021. As a B Corp ambassador, I am available to speak at conferences and events for other businesses inspiring and equipping companies and organisations of all sizes in the UK and beyond to find their purpose and do their part in creating a better world.

Additional Delivery Information (and some really important bits):
UK Delivery
Orders for delivery in the UK are normally despatched by Royal Mail, using the RM 48 Tracked Service with most orders delivered to you within a few days of placing your order with us. For larger parcels, Courier and Signed For delivery services may be used. Signed Books are shipped in our specially made book mailing cartons, with the books themselves wrapped in paper to protect them. Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.
The Really Important Bit: Because we use tracked, courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be received during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.

Another Really Important Bit: There are a number of Postcodes in the UK for which we will need to charge a shipping supplement, this will be calculated once we know the size and weight of the shipment. For these orders we will contact customers to agree a suitable and economic method of shipping. There may also be additional time required for delivery to some areas of the United Kingdom. Where possible, we will ship book orders (under 2kg) by Royal Mail to all UK postcodes. Large multiple book orders and books over 2kg are often shipped via APC Overnight or similar, regardless of Postcode.
