A lot to learn from

Loved it. A very powerful story with tremendous learning. An example of how a business can do the right thing and still make great profit. Staying true to your values makes good business sense.

BEST BUSINESS BOOK EVER

I have been following many companies that implement CSR and Green Revolution but no one comes close to what Patagonia has ever achieved. this book came to me at a time when I am starting my own company which will one day change the world and I will ensure that I follow the Patagonia way of doing business.

Every cell, atom and fibre in my body has absorbed this book, it is that great. please please please download and Let His People Go Surfing :)
