In an age when most business plans extend only to the next quarterly reporting period, the authors of this book propose an audaciously longer view of future planning. Reaching beyond the modern five- or ten-year strategic plan, the authors take a cue from Kongo Gumi, a Japanese construction company founded in 578 AD that managed to thrive as a family-owned business for nearly 1,500 years. With the publication in 2010 of an international standard on social responsibility (ISO 26000), and growing attention to sustainability and sustainability reporting, many organizations today are heeding the call to operate with this standard in mind. However, once the guidelines are understood and the gaps measured, these same organizations often struggle with implementation.
