Synopsis: In a world marked by instability, Norberto Odebrecht, one of Brazil’s greatest entrepreneurs, built a set of fundamental principles intended to become a stable and perennial cultural base for the growth of the Organization he founded. This is an example, perhaps the only one, of a large national group that was structured with basis on a philosophical view of work. In light of these principles, educator Antonio Carlos Gomes da Costa, a consultant for companies and international organizations, seeks, in this book, to answer the question “what does it mean to be an entrepreneur?” and launches the thesis that, in the coming decades, philosophy and business life will converge.
