Social Interest in Industry - Adlerian Philosophy of Contribution

The recent tide of corporate and CEO greed featured in the media seems to over-shadow the contributions of exceptional business leaders. Recently, through the MITWorld's open video program, I've heard presentations by two remarkable innovators. Ricardo Semler, the author of Maverick, has spent decades transforming his Brazilian company Semco into an experimental laboratory for realizing democracy in the workplace. MIT professor Nicholas Negroponte's plan "One Laptop Per Child" proposes an affordable (under $100) laptop that nations would buy and give to all young children, permitting them to learn independently and connect with each other. The hand-cranked unit can be used without electricity and a special screen makes the display easily visible in sunlight.
