Abstract: This article posits a framework for thinking about the role business leaders can play in creating global social change. The qualitative, grounded theory research study rests on the assumption that alternative paradigms exist compared to our predominant, profit-maximizing corporate model. The study seeks to understand how 39 formal and informal leaders consciously act within business contexts in order to create forms of wealth that include, but are not limited to, financial profits. The framework’s four propositions characterize attitudes and values espoused by the snowball sample of individuals. Implications are hypothesized for the influence relationships created within our larger global society as a result of interconnection actions occurring at individual and local levels.
