Host Helen Lee continues her interview with Masami Sato, Founder and CEO of B1G1 whose original name stands for BUY1GIVE1, where “every time somebody purchases something, something could be given to benefit others, to create a positive impact.” It has become an initiative that helps businesses embed social impact into their everyday operations.
This global giving initiative is rapidly expanding into a global movement that makes business giving easy, effective and meaningful by focusing funds towards more than 500 carefully selected high-impact giving projects.
Masami is also a best selling Amazon author with the books ‘Legacy : The Sustainable Development Goals in Action’, ‘Joy : The Gift of Acceptance, Trust and Love’, and ‘Giving Business – Creating the Maximum Impact in the Meaning-Driven World.’ A two time TEDx speaker and frequent podcast, event and media interviewee, Masami spreads her message of philanthropy and a new way of global business and is now the latest treasured guest of Transform and Thrive.
Helen and Masami discuss the culture of B1G1 and its exponential growth, the concepts of targets and goals, the mechanism of B1G1 and what happens when you join and how we move forward together, openly supporting one another towards a better future and an improved humanity.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
‘We definitely need more people like her in our world right now, who are not merely pontificating on what’s right or wrong, nor slamming what they deem to be wrong or bad without really contributing towards the change that they and we all want to see in our world.’ – Helen
‘By 2030, by the completion of the Sustainable Development Goals come to fruition, we need to achieve all of these important things, so all of the programs together. We have a limited time to achieve these things before things get too late.’ - Masami
‘I have an optimistic part and a conservative part. The conservative part makes me go ‘ok let's come up with a reasonable KPI. Overdelivering and under-promising is a natural inclination I have but at the same time, actually being open to the exponential ideas and goals is also very important.’ – Masami
‘That daily success is actually very important, because that part we can ensure, but the future one might, kind of, change.’ - Masami
‘The initiative has a subscription model. Businesses are contributing a small fee to the membership subscription. This helps us to drive our initiative and cover all of the costs too, so we make sure that when businesses are providing a tree then what they contribute, 100% of that will go to the project.’ – Masami
‘As long as we are open, our hearts are open and our minds are open we learn from each other and support each other.’ – Helen
‘More than anything else I think she has done a tremendous job in building B1G1 with Paul and her team and the members and is a fine example of how we can all contribute and collectively come together to make our world work for the majority of us.’ – Helen
