In the bad old days of business, companies had only one goal to maximize profitability. But today a lot of companies say they're pursuing a higher goal. These purpose led companies often proclaim that they're trying to solve some of the big problems in the world, and some of them really are, but some of them well may suffer from some bs. I'm Time Montegue and I'm the host of
Calling Bullshit, the first podcast about purpose washing. In this show, we dig into the difference between what companies say they stand for and the actions they are actually taking, and the things they would need to change to practice what they preach. As a former ad guy, I started my career helping companies tell their stories, but for the last decade I've focused on helping them actually do their stories.
In other words, helping them to figure out what they stand for, their purpose and then helping them to use that purpose to drive action and transformation throughout their business. This season, we look at purpose led organizations like Facebook. We can Bring the World Closer Together Jewel. We started this project with the firm belief that innovation could address all of the problems associated with smoke A and d

Get out your BS detector and join us to find out. Let's call bullshit on the businesses that deserve it, and also make some concrete suggestions for cleaning some of that BS up.
