Er is nogal wat ophef over het feit dat private-equitybelegger KKR tegenwoordig eigenaar is van de Zwarte Cross. Tja, je hebt je aandeelhouders niet altijd voor het kiezen als je het bedrijf verkoopt. De oprichters deden het in 2021 over aan Superstruct en dat werd eind 2024 door KKR overgenomen. En nou zegt Youp van ’t Hek ook nog zijn optreden bij de Zwarte Cross af. Het is wel een beetje hypocriet van Youp. Ik ben benieuwd of er dan ook geen Becel of Blue Band in zijn koelkast staat. En boekt hij dan geen vakantiehuisje meer bij Roompot? Ruilt hij zijn Batavus- of Sparta-fiets in? Kijkt hij niet meer naar SBS? Parkeert hij niet meer bij Q-Park. Enzovoort, enzovoort. Daarmee beseffen we dat het Amerikaanse grootkapitaal in de haarvaten van onze maatschappij zit. Het management van de Zwarte Cross noemt KKR de boze stiefmoeder. Een terechte benaming, vind ik, onder meer vanwege het sprinkhanengedrag. Het is een beetje het Ben & Jerry’s-dilemma. Dat alternatieve ijsjesmerk werd door de oprichters aan Unilever verkocht. Maar Ben Cohen en Jerry Greenfield waren het vaak niet eens met het beleid van het moederbedrijf. Tja, dan had je niet moeten verkopen. Dus Youp zegt zijn optreden af. En dan? Verandert de wereld? Deze actie is slechts voor de bühne, maar ja, dat is zijn corebusiness. Als hij mij uit zijn blote hoofd de bedrijven kan noemen waarin KKR belegt waar hij het niet mee eens is, wil ik hem het voordeel van de twijfel geven. Over Youp maak ik me geen zorgen, wel over al die vrijwilligers die aan de Zwarte Cross meewerken. Ik kom graag naar Lichtenvoorde en heb er zelfs een paar keer mogen optreden. Ik ben elk jaar verbaasd over het enthousiasme en de hoeveelheid vrijwilligers. Sommige van die achtduizend (!) vrijwilligers zullen zich nu toch wel afvragen: sta ik me hier nou een beetje voor de winst van het grootkapitaal uit te sloven? Een voordeel is wel dat je nu dus in de Zwarte Cross kunt beleggen. Voordat u denkt: dat is mooi, dan koop ik een paar aandelen KKR en heb ik die paar extra biertjes op de Zwarte Cross zo terugverdiend, eerst even wat cijfers. KKR heeft een beleggingsportefeuille van ruim $700 mrd. Superstruct is naar schatting overgenomen voor €1,3 mrd. Dat is dus slechts 0,2% van het totaal. En Superstruct heeft tachtig festivals. De Zwarte Cross is daar maar een van en daar schenken ze naar schatting 1,8 miljoen biertjes. Het is heel jammer dat zelfs de Zwarte Cross in handen is gevallen van Amerikaans private equity, maar het is een feit. Misschien dat ik dit jaar ook een of twee biertjes laat staan. Gewoon voor het gevoel, gewoon voor de bühne. Over de column van Corné van Zeijl Corné van Zeijl is analist en strateeg bij Cardano en belegt ook privé. Reageer via c.zeijl@cardano.com.

In the late 1960s, Will Patten was living in Berkeley, California, attending antiwar protests and shaking his first against capitalism and greedy businessmen.Today, at the age of 80, Patten is a true believer in capitalism and a successful businessman.He tells the story of his odyssey in a new book, “Rescuing Capitalism: Vermont Shows the Way.”Will Patten grew up on a dairy farm in southern Vermont in the 1950s. After receiving a bachelor's degree from Johns Hopkins University, Patten attended UC Berkeley to get a doctorate in history. But after participating in the Summer of Love in 1967, he dropped out of grad school and headed back to Vermont to “keep the revolution alive.” He opened a natural foods café in Rutland to serve as a gathering place for like-minded radicals. “In other words,” he writes, “I became the enemy: a businessman.” But Patten believed in a different kind of business, one that sought to bring about positive social change.A few years later, Patten met Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, who wanted to use their ice cream as a vehicle for social change. Patten saw that they were kindred spirits. He opened one of the first Ben & Jerry's scoop shops, and soon became director of retail operations overseeing more than 500 scoop shops in a dozen countries. He retired from Ben & Jerry's in 2007, but quickly unretired to lead Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility. In 2012, he unretired again to open the Hinesburg Public House, a community-supported restaurant.Patten now believes that capitalism has been hijacked by corporate profiteers. What can save it, and us? He insists that democratic capitalism, as he calls it, is the way forward, and Vermont has shown the way."(President) Ronald Reagan hijacked capitalism when he proclaimed that government was the problem, and that started a 44 year experiment in letting corporations pursue profits without caring about the earth or its inhabitants. So supply side economics is what hijacked capitalism, and it's been a disaster," said Patten.Unchecked capitalism has led to "the collapse of our environment, a very hostile climate, and the unraveling of our social fabric. We are in a severe existential crisis, and the time to fix that is getting closer and closer. We're running out of time."Why does he think that the solution to runaway capitalism is capitalism?"Capitalism is the only functioning institution there is," said Patten. "Small business is the most respected institution in the country today. I'm not saying that capitalism is going to pull us out of the ditch, but I think — and there are signs that it's beginning — that it is in their own interest to do so."Patten argues that Vermont's socially responsible businesses, including Ben & Jerry's, Gardeners Supply, and Green Mountain Power, offer a model of how business can support positive change. "The businesses that we have have always revered the environment and the and the communities and the people as much as they've revered profits." Businesses can do good not just because "it's a moral imperative, but it's also an economic imperative. They're making money finding solutions to the crises we face."What would Patten tell the '60s radical version of himself?"I would probably tell him to do what I did, which was to get into the belly of the beast and change it from the inside."

Ben & Jerry's, la marca de helados prémium fundada por Ben Cohen y Jerry Greenfield en Vermont, Estados Unidos, es conocida por sus sabores únicos y su compromiso con causas sociales. Desde sus comienzos en en Vermont, en 1978, la empresa se ha destacado por su enfoque en valores contraculturales y su compromiso con la justicia social y ambiental. A lo largo de los años, Ben & Jerry's ha desafiado las convenciones empresariales al incorporar una misión social en el núcleo de su identidad de marca, incluso después de ser adquirida por Unilever en el año 2000. Sin embargo, esta fusión ha llevado a tensiones entre la empresa matriz y la filial debido a diferencias filosóficas. A pesar de estos desafíos, Ben & Jerry's continúa siendo un ejemplo de cómo una empresa puede combinar el éxito empresarial con un compromiso activo con la responsabilidad social y el cambio positivo en el mundo... manteniendo la cultura organizacional de sus fundadores. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/humanleadermx/message

Paul shares his thoughts and experience on the power of narrative and the importance of upgrading our purpose to meet the poly-crisis and disruptive contemporary social conditions we face. Paul points out that purpose is not a fixed destination, but an emergent position that needs to be adapted to each context. Repurposing leads to revitalising organisations and in a wide-ranging discussion Paul also reflects on the importance of collaborative advantage, drawing on his earlier book, and contrasts this to competitive advantage. He also points to the need to widen our gaze to include the shadow, 'the wolf that lurks to pounce', as very often we are consumed with a more short-term and limited vision of what is going on. Our discussion continues to look at the critical links between narrative and marketing, and we discuss psychotherapy's role in organisational awareness which is becoming ever more critical. Bio Paul Skinner is the author of the award-winning book, The Purpose Upgrade: Change your Business to Save the World. Change the World to Save your Business, which Mike Berners-Lee, author of There Is No Planet B, described as, ‘...a necessary and enlightening call to action for businesses to re-think why they exist and the implications for everything they say, think and do'. Paul's previous book Collaborative Advantage: How Collaboration Beats Competition as a Strategy for Success was described by Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, Co-founders of Ben and Jerry's ice cream, as, 'the perfect recipe for successful businesses that improve lives'. Through his consulting practice the Agency of the Future, Paul helps clients to drive purpose-led change and better mobilise stakeholders for lasting success. He also founded MarketingKind, a non-profit professional membership community bringing business leaders, marketers and change-makers together to address our most pressing problems as 'marketing briefs in disguise'.

Welcome to Building Brand You™, the podcast that helps you accelerate your success by unlocking your greatest asset – you. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Purpose is a story through which we map the world around us in meaning, and plan our particular journey to better. Going somewhere means knowing where you've been, where you are, and where you could get to. Purpose is a map, not a reality. It is always possible to upgrade that map and to improve it, and to map a better trajectory through life or through the future of our businesses. If you solve the bigger problems, first, the smaller problems will more likely take care of themselves. So if we are a global leader, in addressing the world's biggest problems it will be easier to find a way forwards for our economy as part of being the solution to the world's biggest problems. We need to remain always willing to upgrade our purpose when a changing world makes that desirable. ABOUT OUR GUEST: Paul Skinner is the author of The Purpose Upgrade: Change your Business to Save the World.

In 1994 he became the first sell-side analyst in the United States to publish on the topic of socially responsible investing.In this episode, we discuss how early in his career, Matt wrote a sustainability business plan in his first job out of school at Lehman Brothers and how his boss told him he would ruin his career if he didn't stop this sort of thing. We spoke about how he stumbled into the Social Venture Network and ‘found his tribe' after meeting a lot of the early SRI pioneers like Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield of Ben and Jerry's, Howard Schultz of Starbucks Coffee, Anita Roddick of The Body Shop, and a bunch of others who encouraged him to follow his passion for responsible investing, and how he ended up being recruited to replace Trillium's well-known founder, Joan Bavaria.Matt speaks at length about his views on value creation and his belief that a manager's fiduciary responsibility requires incorporating ESG principles into portfolio management. We also discuss greenwashing in the industry and the failures of investment funds to hold themselves accountable to the same standards that they impose on the management of their portfolio companies.Show notes: https://sri360.com/podcast/matt-patskyAbout the SRI 360° Podcast: The SRI 360° Podcast is focused exclusively on sustainable & responsible investing.

Ben Cohen et Jerry Greenfield ont fondé une marque de glaces iconique: Ben & Jerry's. Ce duo n'était pourtant pas fait pour entreprendre. Ils enchaînent les échecs personnels et se sont rencontrés autour de leur incapacité à faire du sport au collège. Un jour, au fond du trou, ils décident de s'associer pour créer une société qui vend des bagels… mais les machines coûtent trop cher. Ils feront des glaces. Et ils innovent. Mettre des morceaux dans les glaces en cette fin des années 70 est totalement innovant. Ils ont un 1er article dans la Time qui parle de “la meilleure crème glacée du monde”. Et petit à petit, ils se font un nom. Leurs ventes décollent, il passent de seuls à plus de 100 personnes. Jerry s'éloigne du business plusieurs années et c'est Ben qui gère le tout. Il revient quelque temps plus tard. Ben & Jerry's s'introduit en bourse avec des actionnaires uniquement basés dans le Vermont. D'ailleurs, Ben et Jerry ne sont pas intéressés par l'argent… ils veulent avoir une vraie entreprise sociale. Les salariés sont impliqués dans les décisions, les salaires sont plafonnés pour les hauts salaires et les chiffres sont communiqués de manière transparente. Et ils travaillent principalement avec des fournisseurs locaux en plus d'avoir une politique environnementale très en avance. Mais un jour, les ventes ralentissent. La nouvelle usine qu'ils font construire leur coûte 3 fois plus cher. Ils vont devoir vendre car les ventes ralentissent. C'est avec un crève-cœur. Mais ils devront le faire. Cela tue presque Jerry.

As we prepare to launch our second season at iHeartRadio, we're revisiting some of Alec's favorite episodes from the archives. In this episode, Alec speaks with ice cream magnates Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield of Ben & Jerry's fame. In the late 70s, Cohen was a rootless pottery teacher, laid off when his school closed down. Greenfield was a diligent pre-med, realizing he was never going to get into med school. They'd formed a deep friendship years earlier, as the two chubby kids in their middle-school gym class. Their joint reaction to their separate crises was to open a small ice cream shop in Burlington, Vermont. That decision would change the face of the industry and give America a model for a new set of corporate values. At the Flynn Center for the Performing Arts in Burlington -- just a couple miles from the site where Cohen and Greenfield set up shop in 1978 -- Alec talks to Ben and Jerry in front of a crowd that idolizes their hometown heroes, and the energy is infectious. From their Long Island childhood to the tensions surrounding Ben & Jerry's acquisition by Dutch conglomerate Unilever in 2000, the conversation is open, honest, and brimming with the deep bond these two men continue to feel, 40 years after they first put their names together on a sign in Vermont.

Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, the founders of Ben & Jerry's ice cream, get pressed to explain why they'd block sales of their product in the so-called "Occupied Palestinian Territories" (OPT), but not in Georgia or Texas where laws also run afoul of their Progressive stance. They seem mystified at their own actions, and rapidly bring down the waffle cone of silence.

Ben & Jerry's is back in the news again, carrying on a long campaign in favor of progressive social issues and a tactic of withholding or withdrawing its ice cream from a market as a form of protest against what founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield see as injustice in the country, province, or territory in question. Last month, in what it meant to be a bold statement against Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories, the company announced that it would cease selling its products in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, though not in Israel as a whole.One of the last places one would expect to find criticism of Ben & Jerry's is in the pages of the almost monochromatically liberal New York Times. But one of the paper's very few idiosyncratic voices, Bret Stephens, wrote a column on August 11 that questions how much of a sacrifice Ben & Jerry's is really making, from a business standpoint, given the relatively minuscule market for its ice cream in the places in question or indeed in Israel as a whole.Has Andrew Cuomo's career really come to an end? The New York governor has announced his resignation, after numerous allegations of sexual harassment came to light for which he faces likely prosecution and a ban against running for state office. As might be expected, the loss of a pillar of New York State's powerful and entrenched Democratic establishment produced a spate of reactions, often depending on people's political affiliations, but it is notable that liberals and progressives did not rush to defend the disgraced governor and many of them praised his resignation as the right thing to do.In an editorial entitled “End of the road,” the liberal New York Daily News says that Cuomo has made the right move, while calling this a sad moment and sternly warning people not to rejoice over the derailment of a political enemy's career, given the vast amount of difficult work that lies ahead for his successors. The points are well taken, but one cannot help wondering whether the News's editorial might have a slightly different tone if the career of a prominent conservative politician had just come to such a dramatic and disgraceful end. But an article by Michael Gartland in the same edition of the Daily News, “'22 race wide open after Andy shocker,” examines the huge field of potential candidates in next year's gubernatorial election, and does not discount the possibility, however remote, that a chastened Cuomo may try for a comeback. And more...
Hour 1 - Nick Reed talks about a variety of topics in the news, including: Earlier this year, Ben & Jerry announced they would stop selling ice cream in Israel because they didn't support their policies. This week, a reporter asked them about this move, and founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield said they still agree with it. The reporter then asked about GA voting laws and TX abortion laws and why they still sell ice cream in those states. They froze and didn't have an answer. The software chief at the Pentagon, Nicolas Chaillan, believes the United States will have “no competing chance against China” in cyber within the next two decades. Funeral arrangements have been announced for Attorney Dee Wampler, who passed Friday at the age of 81. Visitation will be held from 5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Thursday, October 14. Funeral services will be Friday, October 15, at 11:00 a.m. Both will take place at Second Baptist Church, 3111 East Battlefield, Springfield, Mo.

Cal goes into his archives to listen to a conversation he had with Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield about their early years as friends and business partners in Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream. He remembers the conversation being filled with funny stories and the power of ice cream to bring people together, which seems at odds with the recent decision of the company and its parent to boycott the West Bank in protest of Israeli treatment of Palestinians. The friction created by the boycott leaves Cal wondering if there's a wiser way to allow ice cream to work its magic.

Ben & Jerry's was started in 1978 by two Jewish hippies, Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield who opened an ice cream store in South Burlington, Vermont. The company was and is known for its social activism, fairness to its employees and respect for the environment. However, a bit more than 20 years later, in 2001 the two “peace, love and freedom” activist entrepreneurs sold out to Unilever, a multinational corporate giant that has become the world's third-largest consumer goods company, having been forced by what they said was “shareholder responsibility”. In Judea and Samaria alone, there are more than half a million Jewish residents – many of them fans of the product up to this point. But if the company was threatened with a massive economic boycott combined with demonstrations in front of every store selling its product in the US, UK and elsewhere, it is indeed possible that fear has triumphed over good business sense. The international BDS campaign has socially and economically terrorized companies at least as large and some even bigger than Ben & Jerry's. It's not clear precisely whose decision it was to refuse to do business with half a million Israeli Jews, but it's clear that Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream is willing to sacrifice its name as an advocate for equality in order to express its support for hatred of Israel, and Jews. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/yaar-ben-emmett/support

Can you build a successful and fun brand around serious social justice topics? Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield of Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream join Billy Shore to talk about feeding hungry kids, police reform, and how businesses can make a difference on social issues. “Passing legislation that is going to reduce child poverty in the US by 40% is huge – it’s pretty much the best news I’ve heard in quite a long time,” says Greenfield about the American Rescue Plan, the latest COVID relief package that includes critical provisions that will help fight the hunger crisis. Ben & Jerry’s is also focused on police reform through the Campaign to End Qualified Immunity. “What we need to seize about this moment is the issue of racial justice… The reality is if we are not able to pivot from protest to policy right now, all those protests were for nothing,” Cohen believes. Billy Shore asks the ice cream makers and activists about how they built a successful business while also taking stands on controversial social justice issues. “Conventional wisdom when we started was that it’s not possible for a for-profit business to take stands on social issues… and that it was going to have a negative impact on profits. Ben & Jerry’s proved that’s not the case. It was just a bunch of self-serving bullshit from the business community that didn’t want to put energy into helping deal with social problems,” says Cohen. “We’ve always had a very similar world view, and similar values,” says Greenfield of their partnership. “For example, the issue is so clear around police reform and racial justice. Something needs to be done.” Join us for an inspiring discussion with the builders of an iconic brand who have always used their influence to address important problems in our society.
Influence: Exploring The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Of Advertising
In the season kick-off, Damian talks to Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, the co-founders of Ben & Jerry’s, about the company's founding principles and keeping its mission on course as one of the world's most recognised ice cream brands. The pioneers of responsible business share why the social mission should never be a ‘job done.’ Whether partnering with local businesses or taking fierce action against police brutality, the duo’s campaigning zeal is still as bright as ever.Influence is a production of WeTransfer, produced in association with Reasonable Volume.

“It's partly about lying or not telling the truth, but fundamentally, it's - is there any trust between people and institutions? And if people in those institutions are not telling the truth, there is no trust. And why should you bother listening to anything they tell you or why should you comply with anything you're asked to do if you're not being told the truth?” - Jerry Greenfield On this week's episode of Comes a Time, Mike and Oteil are joined by the infamous Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield of Ben & Jerry's, the Vermont ice cream slingers known for creative flavors and successfully building a values-led business. Ben and Jerry share their issues with dishonesty in politics and media and discuss the importance of truth from and accountability for politicians. The four also talk about their concerns with the prosecution of whistleblowers, and the loss of the dividing line between opinion content and the news. Finally, they share their story of building a business that is values-driven and not afraid to take social, political, and environmental action. In1978, longtime friends Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield founded a homemade ice cream parlor in Burlington, VT. Today, Ben & Jerry's is recognized and enjoyed worldwide. The company has long been known for its creative and innovative flavors, clever names, and successfully incorporating activism into their business model. While Ben and Jerry no longer own the business, they are still involved in promoting the social and environmental initiatives that Ben & Jerry's undertakes. Ben and Jerry have received numerous awards and recognition, including the Corporate Giving award from the Council on Economic Priorities, the US Small Business of the Year Award from President Ronald Reagan and several honorary doctorates. Together, they also authored the book, Ben & Jerry's Double Dip: How to Run a Values-Led Business and Make Money, Too.

“It's partly about lying or not telling the truth, but fundamentally, it's - is there any trust between people and institutions? And if people in those institutions are not telling the truth, there is no trust. And why should you bother listening to anything they tell you or why should you comply with anything you're asked to do if you're not being told the truth?” - Jerry GreenfieldOn this week’s episode of Comes a Time, Mike and Oteil are joined by the infamous Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield of Ben & Jerry’s, the Vermont ice cream slingers known for creative flavors and successfully building a values-led business. Ben and Jerry share their issues with dishonesty in politics and media and discuss the importance of truth from and accountability for politicians. The four also talk about their concerns with the prosecution of whistleblowers, and the loss of the dividing line between opinion content and the news.

[podcast_subscribe id="23590"] Michael Salamone chats with the Ben half of Ben & Jerry's, Ben Cohen, about his and Jerry Greenfield's new project, https://michaelsalamone.com/wp-admin/campaigntoendqualifiedimmunity.org (campaigntoendqualifiedimmunity.org). Qualified immunity is a ruling by the Supreme Court that requires lower court judges to ignore whether any laws were broken and dismiss the case, UNLESS another police officer had been found guilty previously in a similar situation, making it near impossible for any officer breaking the law to be found guilty the first time around to open the door to accountability. The Campaign to End Qualified Immunity is seeking Federal legislation to overturn the Supreme Court's ruling. Through their website, https://michaelsalamone.com/wp-admin/campaigntoendqualifiedimmunity.org (campaigntoendqualifiedimmunity.org) you can sign up to be active in lobbying for changing this antiquated ruling with origins in protecting the KKK post-Civil-War.

Christopher Marquis is the author of Better Business: How the B Corp Movement Is Remaking Capitalism, which is the topic of today’s discussion. He offers a compelling look into the B Corp Movement and why it’s in everyone’s best interest to be a socially and environmentally responsible company. A compelling look at the B Corp movement and why socially and environmentally responsible companies are vital for everyone’s future—"a valuable guide to an important force" (Financial Times) "An important blueprint for how businesses can and should be both successful and a force for good."—Rose Marcario, President and CEO, Patagonia "Better Business is the book to read if you want to put values and purpose at the center of your company. It’s an inspiring book with great insights to share."—Jerry Greenfield, co-founder, Ben & Jerry’s Sponsored by... Cultivate Grit. Amplify Action. Get The Importance of Journaling We help YOU enjoy the success we've already enjoyed. Free downloads of Quick Reference Guides on Delegation, Time Management, Sales, and more. Key Takeaways [3:15] Better Business, was an idea that was originally born from his students. [5:15] Christopher explains what a B Corp is. [6:15] Patagonia is an excellent example of a B Corp. [10:15] Capitalism is a good thing, but its core message has shifted in the United States. [11:45] Christopher shares what some of the drawbacks are that make it difficult for people to register as a B Corp. [15:25] Christopher dives further into the legal components of a B Corp and why it’s better to have this extra layer of protection. [16:50] More and more younger people want to be part of an organization where the values line up and companies with B Corp status highlight this purpose-driven message. [17:40] Retention and attraction of talent just go through the roof when you have a B Corp. [19:00] Jan once heard a CEO apologize that their company was “too profitable.” The CEO was basically apologizing for being a capitalist. [19:40] Christopher highlights a French company that he respects a lot where they did something a little bit differently when COVID-19 hit. [23:20] Christopher is curious to see where the B Corp movement will go in the next couple of years, but from what he’s seeing so far, things look very promising. [24:40] Some of the downsides of going down this path is that the certification is very, very hard. [29:15] Christopher shares what employees of a B Corp need to be aware of. [35:15] Christopher talks about Greyston Bakery and how they have an open hiring approach. This bypasses a lot of discrimination in their company. [38:10] There is a new job position out in the world now: The Social Engineer. Christopher explains why this role helps companies succeed. [42:05] Because B Corps are seen as having more of a “soul” and purpose, Jan wonders if this makes it difficult to find qualified buyers who can buy into the vision for when founders are ready to exit. Christopher thought the same at first, but the environment is changing. [45:50] Listener challenge: For leaders, take a look at the B Impact Assessment. For individuals, buy from companies with social missions. Quotable Quotes “Capitalism brings us amazing things. You see the amount of people who have been lifted out of poverty and it’s because of markets and capitalism at its core.” “The type of capitalism we’ve been practicing, particularly in the United States, has been focused on meeting shareholder needs... in the short term.” “When people ask me about the main financial benefits of becoming a B Corp, it is on the HR side.” “There’s been so much research that has shown companies that are focused on environmental sustainability and delivering good employee benefits are much more sustainable over the long run.” Resources Mentioned Sponsored by: Pass-life.com.

Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield are the ice cream equivalent of Cher or Madonna: they need only be introduced by their first names. The boyhood buddies are just as well known for their activism as they are for flavors like Cherry Garcia and Chubby Hubby, unabashedly seeking equality for all on their own time and through Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavors. It seems social justice + ice cream go together like hot fudge + whipped cream: host Rachel Belle chats with Madison, Wisconsin's Katrina Ervin, founder of Ice Cream Social, who started selling ice cream for a cause after George Floyd and Breonna Taylor's murders. Ben reveals why Ben & Jerry's ice creams are famously studded with so many delicious chunks & Rachel interviews two doctors who have collectively been studying smell and taste for decades, Dr. Sandeep Robert Datta and Dr. Pamela Dalton. They say suddenly losing these senses to Covid can have serious psychological effects. And, we are all familiar with the fifth taste, umami, but Dr. Datta says there is also a secret sixth taste!

En el episodio de hoy me acompaña Natalia Butler, una boricua que probablemente tiene el trabajo más dulce del mundo, ya que es una Flavor Guru en Ben & Jerry's. Natalia me cuenta como desde muy pequeña siempre le llamó la atención la comida y las ciencias, pero no fue hasta que llegó a University of Massachusetts Amherst que descubrió la maestría en "food science". Después de eso, todo cambió. Hablamos sobre su llegada al equipo de Ben & Jerry's en Vermont, el proceso de desarrollar un producto hasta su llegada a la góndola, la disciplina necesaria para separarte de tus ideas y cómo las preferencias de los consumidores varían por mercado. Además, hablamos sobre el legado que dejaron Ben Cohen y Jerry Greenfield y cómo escogen los nombres que han hecho tan icónico a Ben & Jerry's. Tres "takeaways" de este episodio: 1. Toma mucha disciplina dejar el ego a un lado para tratar de coger un “feedback” con la mayor humildad posible. 2. No dejes que nadie ponga dudas en tu cabeza. 3. Si no es divertido, ¿para qué lo estás haciendo?

L'INVITÉ : Christophe est le directeur général très charismatique des Prés Rient Bio. Vous connaissez ? Si la réponse est non, c'est normal : les Prés Rient Bio sont plutôt connus pour leur marque Les 2 Vaches. C'est aujourd'hui la marque leader de l'ultra-frais bio en France (60 millions de chiffre d'affaires, +20% de croissance annuelle) … mais également celle qui rémunère le mieux ses éleveurs. Christophe porte un nouvel exemple d'engagement : l'intrapreneuriat à impact (entreprendre dans une entreprise existante pour faire changer les choses). En 2001, Danone rachète l'américain Stonyfield Farm, n°3 du yaourt aux États-Unis… tout en étant un pionnier du bio ! Le groupe décide alors de créer une structure juridique dédiée – depuis renommée Les Prés Rient Bio – qui sera gérée de manière autonomie. Christophe intègre l'aventure à ses débuts. Il en est directeur général depuis 6 ans. Il explique comment cette gouvernance indépendante leur a permis de survivre et de se développer sainement et sûrement. Il dirige une des marques les plus engagées de l'ultra-frais en France. Christophe raconte comment il a construit, avec son équipe, une relation de confiance et de respect « de la fourche à la fourchette », de l'éleveur au consommateur. Les Prés Rient Bio, c'est deux marques : Les 2 Vaches (la plus connue, vendue en grandes et moyennes surfaces) et Faire Bien (la plus récente, vendue en magasins bio). Concrètement, ils s'engagent comment ? Leurs produits sont bio et vont plus loin avec un programme de soutien à toute la filière (programme Reine Mathilde) qui aide financièrement les éleveurs à se convertir au bio. Ils sont certifiés Fair for Life et B-Corp. Avec Faire Bien, ils ont fait un pas de plus en adressant le sujet de la relève des agriculteurs (en France, pour 5 départs d'agriculteurs, seuls 2 sont remplacés). C'est 5% des ventes de Faire Bien qui vont dans un fonds pour financer des projets visant à rendre ce métier plus attractif. Par exemple, il finance des congés pour les éleveurs à Noël. Des jeunes viennent les remplacer dans les fermes avec derrière l'idée de créer des rencontres pour préparer la relève. Christophe nous explique comment Les 2 Vaches ont réussi à rendre le bio plus joyeux et attractif, alors que rien n'était gagné. Lorsqu'il rejoint la marque en 2008, le bio connaît un reflux après la première vague qui avait fait des adeptes. Les Deux Vaches veut rendre le bio plus joyeux et plus attractif. LA PERSONNE QUI L'INSPIRE : Gary Hirschberg, ancien CEO de Stonyfield Farm avant son rachat par Danone en 2001. Gary est d'abord enseignant dans un lycée agricole pour apprendre aux jeunes à basculer vers l'agriculture bio. Lorsque les aides de son lycée sont coupées, Gary comprend qu'il aura trop peu d'impact : il décide d'essayer de vendre des yaourts bio au lait de vache, des « yaourts avec une conscience ». En 2001, Stonyfield Farm est n°3 aux États-Unis et pèse 400 millions de dollars. Christphe cite aussi Yvon Chouinard (fondateur de Patagonia), Ben Cohen et Jerry Greenfield (fondateurs de Ben & Jerry's).

In the mid-1970s two childhood friends, Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield decided to open an ice cream shop in Burlington, Vermont. Their quirky little shop packaged and sold unusual flavors like Honey Coffee, Mocha Walnut, and Mint with Oreo Cookies. In 1981, the regional brand spread across the country after Time magazine called it the "best ice cream in America." Today, Ben & Jerry's is one of the top selling ice cream brands in the world. And, like the original founders, the company doesn't shy away from speaking out on social issues. PLUS for our postscript "How You Built That," we check back with Clay McCabe of Zipper Rescue, a repair kit that helps people fix their broken zippers at home.
Ben and Jerry’s calls itself an aspiring social justice company. Something it has leaned into since founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield started churning ice cream in 1978. CEO Matthew McCarthy will explain what that means, and how the company has evolved from philanthropy and community involvement to business activism.

America's most beloved ice cream makers, Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield met up with Michael on the campaign trail in Fairfield, Iowa. They discussed how the Vermont duo built their business while maintaining their values, dead peasant insurance, where their ice cream flavor ideas came from and their support for fellow Vermonter Bernie Sanders. ***************** Watch the Dead Peasant Insurance scene from "Capitalism: A Love Story": https://youtu.be/frs25RsstoA ***************** Subscribe to “RUMBLE with Michael Moore” on: Apple https://apple.co/rumble Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5KubucWBfyJr14bD7xWBvS Google: https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy8xMGZjOWEzMC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw== Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/michael-moore-4/rumble-with-michael-moore Anchor: https://anchor.fm/rumble-with-michael-moore Follow Michael on: Twitter: https://twitter.com/MMFlint Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mmflint/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/michaelfmoore/ ******************** --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rumble-with-michael-moore/message
In Vermont in the 1970s, childhood friends Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield started Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream. They pioneered equitable business practices, fair trade, and championed local farms while fighting for social justice and building one of the most recognizable brands in American history. Ben and Jerry led the way in building an ethical and just business, and even managed to maintain the social justice mindset of the company when it was sold to Unilever. Now, they're turning their talents to the Bernie Sanders campaign. Listen in for a bit of ice cream history and a lot of front-line activism from two of the sweetest guys in business. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alyssa-milano-sorry-not-sorry/message

Máte rádi zmrzlinu? Pak si poslechněte příběh, kterých stojí za jednou z nejznámějších zmrzlin. Příběh Ben & Jerry’s je krásnou ukázkou, že uspět může každý, kdo má odvahu, vůli a štěstí. Oba zakladatelé, tedy Ben Cohen a Jerry Greenfield, nevěděli o podnikání vůbec nic. Podle jejich vlastních slov byli odpadlíci, na které by si nikdo nevsadil. Dva hipíci dokázali do praxe zavést mnoho benefitů, které se až o několik desítek let později staly „běžnými“ v pokrokových firmách. Na začátku ani nevěděli, v čem chtějí podnikat. Na vlastní pekárnu neměli peníze, a tak si za 5 dolarů koupili kurz, ve kterém se DÁLKOVĚ naučili dělat vlastní zmrzlinu. Na podnikání si vybrali místo vzdálené jen 70 kilometrů od studené Kanady. Jejich první provozovna byla ve staré rozpadlé benzínce, kde bylo 10 centimetrů ledu, protože tam zatékalo a nefungovalo topení. A když se jim konečně dařilo, tak je začal neférově drtit Häagen-Dazs.

A very cool behind-the-scenes look at the iconic ice cream brand. Hear the amazing story of how the company was founded, that Ben and Jerry learned how to make ice cream from a $5 course, how flavors are chosen, some flavors that never made it to market and the importance to Ben & Jerry's being socially and politically conscious.
Overweight Underachievers with Counter Culture Values: Jerry Greenfield is the co-founder of Ben & Jerry's. Jerry talks to me about how he and his childhood friend, Ben Cohen, two overweight underachievers with counterculture values, founded the world's most popular ice cream brand out of the failure of the things they were individually trying to do. From humble beginnings in 1978 in a scoop show in Burlington Vermont, the ice cream company has grown to an multinational corporation, but in true Vermont fashion, the company has maintained localvore values and pushes progressive social causes.
In the mid-1970s two childhood friends, Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield decided to open an ice cream shop in Burlington, Vermont. Their quirky little shop packaged and sold unusual flavors like Honey Coffee, Mocha Walnut, and Mint with Oreo Cookies. In 1981, the regional brand spread across the country after Time magazine called it the "best ice cream in America." Today, Ben & Jerry's is one of the top selling ice cream brands in the world. And, like the original founders, the company doesn't shy away from speaking out on social issues. PLUS for our postscript "How You Built That", how David Stover and his team at Bureo turn fishing nets into skateboards.

Ben Cohen , along with his long time friend Jerry Greenfield, was a founder of Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream who ran it for its first twenty-two years of existence as it grew form a single ice cream shop in Burlington, Vermont to an internationally known and loved brand of gourmet ice cream. Ben is a role model for hundreds of independent business owners who emulate the Ben and Jerry’s model of a socially conscious corporation. From the outset, Ben and Jerry’s gave a percentage of their profits to charity, gave employees generous benefits, used only environmentally sound ingredients, and supported many humanitarian causes directly including Farm Aid, and the Children’s Defense Fund. Inspired by many aspects of sixties counter-culture (two of Ben and Jerry’s most popular flavors were Cherry Garcia and Wavy Gravy, ) Ben has dedicated his post corporate life to activism in service of his ideas: peace and love. He also has the gift of making work and activism feel like fun. His current project, Stamp Stampede is a grass roots campaign to reduce the influence of money in politics. Ben claims not to follow any particular path but the more I get to know him, the more I feel that aspiring Bodhisatvas could do a lot worse than to follow his vibe, his spirit and his example.
