    Category: Business


    This week, Zhena is here to talk about her success with her sustainable award winning brand of pure organic tea that has turned into the fastest growing company on the gold coast: Zhena’s Gypsy Tea. In 2000, Zhena’s son Sage was born with a severe health defect. Barely making ends meet, and with no health insurance to cover Sage’s mounting medical costs, Zhena was faced with a serious challenge. Determined to earn the income necessary to support the needs of her son she used her degree in aromatherapy, love of tea and a small collection of money from friends and family to produce and start selling tea out of a cart on California street corners. Believing that selling her tins of tea could alter fate, Zhena became a purveyor of hope and the founder of Gypsy Tea. Today Sage is a healthy, energetic boy and the company has become more than just a product. Zhena’s Gypsy Tea doesn’t just market products, it markets meaning. These teas are made with a commitment to social responsibility, sustainability and the well-being of others. Apart from dedicating her company to blending her teas with the finest, highest grade of natural oils, herbs, fruits, and organic leaves, Zhena has committed her company to green practices. These include focusing on how the ingredients in her products are grown, the re-usable packaging that is used, even the tea bags play a role in promoting social good.

    Supply Chain Sustainability and ROI

    This week we’ll speak with Fred Raimondo of Verdant Consulting Group who believes that the supply chain efficiencies created in a well designed sustainability plan are the key to realizing the inherent value of socially and environmentally responsible organizational change. He’s also done with the term “green” — especially as it relates to business. In his words, “No more ‘green’ marketing, no more ‘green’ business practices, no more ‘green’ laundry detergent, no more cute pictures of frogs, spouting ‘it’s not easy being green.’ Unfortunately the term has become so ubiquitous and generic that we have devalued the message.” We’ll look at a few of Fred’s case studies to see how Verdant has helped its clients to focus on sound business practices, sustainable supply chain management, and ROI. Fred launched The Verdant Consulting Group in 2008 to reflect his experience and ongoing commitment to positive social, environmental and business transformation. Having held Senior Management positions in operations, sales and marketing, Fred brings a unique vision to the Verdant Consulting Group. As a senior executive at the premedia division of global printing company Quebecor World, he was instrumental in the development and implementation of technology and process solutions that enabled publishers, advertising agencies, brand owners and supply chain partners to improve efficiencies, create value and improve financial performance.

    It's Not What You Sell, It's What You Stand For

    This week we talk with Haley Rushing, the co-author of "It's Not What You Sell, It's What You Stand For: Why Every Extraordinary Business is Driven by Purpose." Haley co-founded the Purpose Institute along with her co-author Roy Spence. The Purpose Institute is an organization dedicated exclusively to helping clients discover and articulate their purpose and values in the world. Haley and her co-author, Roy Spence, Jr., show us why companies that have a purpose beyond making money are the companies with the best products, most loyal customers and employees and consistent success in a continually evolving marketplace. Their book is a wonderful tool for understanding how your company makes a difference and how to harness that purpose for greater success. As one of their clients put it: Said Monica Gattoni, senior manager, marketing, at Southwest Airlines: "For us, it means figuring out what our company is about other than making money. In our case it was 'freedom.'" Over the years, Haley has helped a number of the country's most visionary organizations develop business strategies that are founded on a strong core purpose and authentic core values, including Southwest Airlines, Wal-Mart, Charles Schwab, Norwegian Cruise Line, Whole Foods, World Market, Univision, The American Council on Education, Texas A&M and, most recently, the American Red Cross.
