	When your bottom line focuses on people and planet as well as profit, you have competing responsibilities. You really need a clear description of your business and how it will work. Where do you want to go? How are you going to get there? When those three bottom lines diverge, which one takes precedence? The process of writing a business plan brings issues into focus and prepares you for the decisions you'll face as you try to do good while doing well. This free webinar will provide a formula for charting your company's course and ensuring that you take into account the needs of investors and partners as well as the benefits to people, planet, and profit.
	Who Should Attend? Social entrepreneurs, small business owners who want to add "people and planet" benefits to their bottom line, those thinking about making a difference by through business.
