Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Since the pandemic, many businesses have gone under. Others are fighting to stay afloat. But some are thriving. Why is that? Rebuild is a lift raft, a vital guide to how we reset and build back better.
Retail and brand expert Mary Portas argues that over the past 30 years, the business of what we buy has been dominated by the biggest, fastest and cheapest. But those values no longer resonate. We've come to realise that more doesn't equal better.
Good business is now about putting people and planet before profit. The post-pandemic era is all about care, respect and understanding the implications of what we're doing. This 'Kindness Economy' is a new value system which means that in order to thrive, businesses must understand the fundamental role they can play in the fabric of our lives. They need to rediscover their authenticity, and balance brand magnetism and commerce with social progress. We're not simply consuming anymore, we're buying into something. Which means that, whether physical or digital, the most important space that any business can now occupy is the space in peoples' hearts.
How to rebuild? Here's how. Full of expert insight and invaluable advice, Rebuild shows you how to reset the dial, reignite the passion and build back better.

Inspiring
Thought provoking. Worth a listen. Profit is important but there’s more to us than that. What is important to you, your stakeholders and the world? Do you truly believe it, or do you want people to believe that you believe it? Buying habits are changing, don’t be left behind.

Making a change today
I was recommended this book and it definitely is a good listen. The thoughts and passion around the kindness economy couldn’t be more essential right now.

Outdated and superficial
I'd recommend conscious capitalism, integral theory and other more profound and inspiring approaches on this topic.
