About this title

Synopsis

This book presents the proceedings from the third conference co-sponsored by the Busch School of Business and Economics and the Napa Institute took place October 4-6, 2017, in Washington, D.C. Participants included a mix of several hundred business, Church, and academic leaders as well as students from Catholic University. The conference’s theme, Good Profit: How Profitable Business Can be a Force for Good, explored the synergies between Charles Koch’s personal business philosophy, Market-Based Management, with the principles of Catholic social doctrine and the lived experience of Catholic business leaders. Speakers and panelists explored three central questions: What is good profit? What is required for profit to be good? How is good profit to be achieved?
