The B Team Australasia (BTA) is a regional organisation that actively works with CEOs and leadership teams to enhance how they impact people and the planet.
Through coalitions and initiatives, The B Team Australasia tackles complex, global challenges like climate change, mental wellbeing in the workplace, the future of artificial intelligence, and the future of leadership.
The B Team Australasia is part of the international non-profit organization The B Team, co-founded by Richard Branson and Jochen Zeitz in 2012, based on their mutual belief that business can, and must, be a driving force for social, environmental and economic benefit.
Collaborating with the largest and most impactful businesses across Australasia, The B Team is a catalyst for bold dialogue and brave business action toward a fairer, greener and more human economy.
Collaborators believe that by starting ‘at home’ in their own companies, taking collective action to scale systemic solutions and by using their voice on the issues that matter most, they can make a difference.
