Branson argues that not all problems can be left to the government to solve, and businesses have a responsiblity to play a part in social advancement as well. This Plan B Initiative puts a whole new spin on business objectives. Plan B takes people, the planet and profit into account, as opposed to the singular focus on profit that typically has been associated with business.
