Hybrid Organizations : New Business Models for Environmental Leadership

This book offers a glimpse into the future. The companies it describes are pioneers, the first-movers in market shifts that will eventually become mainstream. These hybrid organizations - or what others call values-driven or mission-driven organizations - operate in the blurry space between the for-profit and non-profit worlds. They are redefining their supply chains, their sources of capital, their very purpose for being; and in the process they are changing the market for others.
