Hope is not a Strategy, but it is Reality

One of the embedded virtues of business is its forward-looking focus. Entrepreneurs must focus on the future or risk falling behind. But that focus is not just about diligence or calculation.

In this plenary address, David Bahnsen argues that there is real hope for the future even amid growing negativity and cynicism. If that hope cannot be found in media or politics, it can be found in business, where the virtues that sustain society are most vital and most cultivated.
