Valero Case Study Part 3
In this episode I talk about social capital and its role within the Positive Sum framework. Social Capital is fundamental to what I am trying to do and it relates to human capital and physical capital. There is also a link to the triple bottom line which I discuss in the latter half of the episode. In the coming weeks I will be learning more about Valero and will be assessing the company along these lines as well.
