I do not know if you have noticed that in the
life there are people who from very small
they know exactly what they are going to
make the typical friend that exist
secondary knows that this is going to study
medicine and talk and walk like as dr
in my case it is the opposite the
truth is that the question of what are you going to
do when you grow up or will be
when you are bigger I still
it generates nervousness and not if it could not
answer the then my decisions of
academic and professional lives have
reduced that much studied engineering
industrial because it allowed me
practically do many things in it
in the future
then I went 12 years consultant
working in functions industries
different countries when I entered the tec
to work also worked in
different projects every week but what
but reflecting on this topic has
there were a couple of constants in in my
life that have been my guide me not and that
he has always sought to do one is always
keep learning and the second is
seek to have a positive impact and
help others
then given given that then my
reflection has been what can I do with
what I know how to do and what I like
do to meet these two
concepts and the last years dedicated
the issue of education in particular
issue of business education and it ‘s
what I want to talk about in this in this
talk not now in the last weeks
when I came across friends who
He was going to give a text –
today in social media and media since
you are going to talk you can not read the
companies and capitalism follows
changing with the face of ya you got it wrong
compadre because they do not speak better of the
world peace or to save the vaquita
marine or something that is truly
good irrelevant not for
for the people who are going to listen to you
but given the answers that what is
even more important to share the
ideas that I will share today not
if you go to there are outside and ask
now works capitalism is good
capitalism for society
companies are good for society
companies can be a model for
social transformation
and of value creation the majority of
people are going to say no
in fact a gallup survey in
united states and it’s not very different in
mexico that says that only 18 by
hundred people trust the
companies below the unions
below the means of
communication and there seems to be with
the politicians and we even listen
every day in the news
demonstrations against capitalism
and globalization and companies
two weeks ago I was invited to a
conference to the world business council
for sustainable development is a
organization of 200 companies to which
van general managers was a
talk about talent and leadership for
sustainability and in the end the
questions that I started doing was
because in business schools
we imposed capitalism and studied
the creativity of our students in a
event organized by the initiative
private and the companies themselves or makes a
year I was in that we have an event
with john mack and is the founder of the
whole food and an example that I
was recorded the series of
television and movies over 90
percent of the murders commit
business men when in reality
that’s less than 2 or 3 percent already
as a society we have found in the
businessman to our villain
favorite now this narrative and this
concept that we have obeys the
reality or do not serve in a horizon of
very long term that has happened with the
economic development in the past
two thousand years
the truth is that the year 0 to 1500
it did not happen much even after a thousand
500 up as well as 200 years had not
changed things a lot in terms of the
gross domestic product that we generated
per person or per capita 200 years ago
little more than 200 years more than 90% of
the population lived in extreme poverty
the per capita income equivalent to
that have countries
today as it will have today Bangladesh or
Haitian if you take the GDP per capita of
badges that is the poorest state in
Mexico
I gave it
10 between 46 the income level with the
that we lived 200 years ago
now that income has multiplied
well almost more than 20 many
countries not now what happened what
happened was capitalism and its
fundamental postulates the right of
private property
entrepreneurship the free market and the
globalization and respect for the law or
the rule of law in the last 200
years
these ideas that started as ideas are
they were realizing and transforming
importantly the system
economic and political system in the
vast majority of the countries of the world
now surely I imagine that they are
thinking good that this works for
the rich
on average it screams get to bill gates
and centered and I went into the room in
average would be billionaires but the
reality is that our reality does not
I would have changed a lot and the truth is
which is that this system has not
benefiting mainly the poor
she also wondered if she was what
has gone through poverty in the past
40 years has increased or decreased the
most people would tell you that
has however increased around the
world in the last 40 years I have
39 since I was born, poverty went from
represent 40 percent of the
population less than 15 represented
by people who live with less than 1.25
dollars a day and the truth is that the
trend continues down if we do not throw
to lose some things is very likely
that in the next decades as
humanity
we would have the tools to
eradicate poverty
now if this is the reality because
we keep thinking if this one disconnects
it’s something that I’m worried about and
I think it is necessary to talk about the subject
understand him know it and talk about it
Now all this is capitalism
it is far from being a one a system
perfect and certainly and companies that have
destroyed the environment that have
abused your employees who are part
of the corruption system that there is
in Mexico and from and I really believe it and
I think it’s something that has to be fought and
mainly the people that we believe in
he
the economic system and that we believe in
the companies with a motor
social transformation we are the
first we have to point to
these people who are not fulfilling
with these precepts and in the world there are
many movements that are talking
how to reimagine is not capitalism
there is one called capitalism
conscious inclusive capitalism
fair capitalism corporations b
but they are all around to find
a way to make capitalism
it still works but it works
way more inclusive for all in
namely four years ago in 70
anniversary of the tec in the city of
Mexico we brought to roissy soria is that
he wrote this book together with john mack
and of conchos capitalized on where in that
talk and through the book and a
series of lectures you are hearing
they talk about companies like companies
or not any company
well-managed companies with a
wider sense of purpose than
only make money with a vision of
generate shared value of stakeholders
of interest groups to take care of not only
shareholders but to take care of the
suppliers to customers in the middle
community environment to employees
They are the best way that I have
I would say almost the only one to create value
for everyone because there is no other way to
create value that is not through the
company the innovation and the take and the
risk taking your now also me
I imagine you are thinking
how many of these companies are there and not
less in mexico
the truth is that through me
experience I have had to meet
many companies these of all sizes
big small girls and if there are
but there are not enough then the
challenge is how we train leaders
future and current leaders for
who create companies conscious companies
with a broader sense of purpose
or to transform the current
in this sense of this vision of the
responsibility that can have a
company and the impact it may have
a company to transform society and
that is the dream
the dream that I have personally is
the dream we share at school
business of the Monterrey technology and
that is the dream because we are
working not now that I ask
you two things 1 that I believe this
what do you think?
truly the companies far from being
the enemy are the best way that
we have to create value at the scale that
we require it if we want to get out of the
15% poverty that we lack and the
second you every day all the
they interact with companies
mainly as customers and as
consumers and the beauty of this
system is that nobody forces them to
you have the freedom to choose with
who interact are also
employees are investors are
business founders
so you too through
the interaction with all these companies
can help more companies and more
entrepreneurs move to this vision of
social responsibility of a capitalism
aware of a model where the
companies are truly an axis of
transformation and value creation
more inclusive and more fair for all
many
