Welcome to our world

On a mission for the greater good

The world is changing – and so are companies. Today sustainability and responsibility must be at the heart of business – no matter whether you want to create shareholder value or want to make the world a better place. We call it heartcore business.

For the past two decades we have inspired and helped companies and professionals create value for society and the bottom line. On a mission in service of life and the greater good.

Our mission is to bridge the gap between business and societal needs, creating strategies that not only generate economic value but also nurture social innovation and sustainability.

We do this by offering strategic consulting, educational programs, and tailored solutions that align with our clients’ goals while promoting sustainable innovation.Through collaboration, advocacy, and practical guidance, we help businesses become a force for meaningful, long-lasting change, ensuring a better future for people and the planet.

In 2019, we received the formal recognition of becoming a Certified B corp. The Social Business Company joins the global business force for good movement and shares a common goal with the B Corp community:

To redefine business, so that one day, no company will strive to be the best company in the world – but to be the best company for the world.

This means we have met the requirements of verified societal and environmental performance, public transparency and legal accountability to balance profits and purpose for the greater good. Learn more

Our passion is simple: we believe that business should be a force for good. Inspired by Tania Ellis’s “The New Pioneers,” we’re committed to integrating social responsibility into every business strategy. We see business not just as a means to profit, but as a powerful tool for social innovation.

By embracing sustainable practices that benefit both people and the planet, we believe in building a future where business success and social impact go hand in hand. Let’s create a world where everyone thrives.

The Social Business Company

In 2003, Tania founded the Social Business Company, at a time when the corporate mantra of the time was “the business of business is business,” and making a profit was the main purpose of most companies.

Since then, it has become an internationally recognized and leading speaking, training, and consulting company that encompasses her pioneering approach to shaping and championing a convincing case for corporate social responsibility.

Through the company’s four key services, it is able to provide support for sustainability-oriented companies and professionals, who want to gain insight into sustainable business trends and best practices, network with like-minded peers, upgrade their skills, or develop their business in ways that contribute to a better world as well as a better bottom line.

Together with a small core team and a strong multi-disciplinary partnership network, the company is able to scale, adjust, and tailor its services to a client’s specific needs.

We work with particular focus on linking business objectives with sustainable goals and innovation through our four cornerstones:

  • Business strategy & development
