At One Planet Group, we are dedicated to creating a distinctive company where workplace culture, relationships, and our products and services collectively contribute to the greater good. Infused with principles from timeless spiritual teachings, we aim to transcend typical business practices by fostering an environment rich in equality, love, and empowerment.
We firmly believe that our company can achieve healthy profit margins while sustaining a mission that brings meaning and fulfillment to our employees, vendors, clients, and friends. Our unique culture is the heartbeat of this vision, guiding us in every endeavor.
At One Planet Group, we ascribe to the idea of universal philanthropy, meaning that we actively pursue partners, vendors, clients, and employees who actively support programs for the betterment of the world. This is a conscious intention, that is an integral part of the DNA of One Planet’s core mission, business model and our daily work.
As a company, One Planet supports many nonprofits and charities, with a specific focus on those that support the education and empowerment of girls and women. In addition to corporate donations, and fundraising events, we also offer a fixed percentage of our quarterly profits to some organizations and designate multiple days throughout the year for our employees to take time off so that they can take part in community service and volunteerism.
Our spirit of service is ingrained in every aspect of business – from hiring to performance – giving our teams extra incentive to deliver the most profitable growth possible. Learn more about our Service Days, model of profit-sharing, and foundation work here.
Our founding philosophy is based on spiritual teachings of the Bahá’í Faith. As a company, we care deeply about others and the planet which we all inhabit. We believe that profit at any cost — regardless of the implication for others, the environment, or our own conscience — is an archaic way to do business. Instead, we try to show that there is a more compassionate way to proceed.
You can have healthy profitable margins while also caring for humanity at large. Intention isn’t meaning well, it’s doing well. We set a small yet robust example of how to pair good intentions with strong business models. We measure our success by how many lives we touch positively, and by the impact made in our communities and around the world.
Capital should serve humanity. By considering the impact of our work, we have the opportunity to add a layer of meaning to our professional lives.
