Maria Kingery is a self-described impact junkie who believes that businesses have the power to change the world. And that's exactly what Certified B Corporations (B Corps) are doing. So what is a B Corp, and how does an organization get certified? Today, Maria takes us to B Corps 101 class and tells us all about the impact B Corps can have. She also shares some lessons in leadership that she learned the hard way, plus talks about why she embraced "love" as a core value in her business.
Maria Kingery is the Founder and Principal at 360Impact (which changed its name from 360Rocks shortly before publishing this episode). She is also a co-founder and Chief Impact Officer of Southern Energy Management, which has been a B Corp since 2009.
Inside Impact is hosted by Unity Web Agency CEO Alisa Herr and is produced by Earfluence.
