Business strategist Michael Porter (Harvard Business School) introduces us to the concept ofshared value in his TED talk. He defines shared value as "when we ... create social value and economic value simultaneously." After watching his talk, in your own words, explain what shared value means in business. Using his examples as a starting place, find your own example of an innovative business that creates shared value. Describe and cite.

Each original response must be thorough and well-written. You must cite your responses within your answer. Give your post an original title. Be sure to end your post with a question to encourage dialogue.

Additionally, you are required to respond to TWO of your classmates posts, again, thoroughly and in good writing, with citations, ending with a question.

This means you need to have a minimum of THREE posts total for this question.
