Have you ever wondered: Is this all there is? What am I working for? How can I make a real difference in this world?
This book will help you find your answers.

Changing the World Through Small Business Stewardship is not a feel-good philosophy book. It's a practical, empowering blueprint built from lived experience-grounded in one powerful truth:

Doing good is good business.

Through real stories, stakeholder-specific actions, and hard-earned insight, this book invites you to rethink ownership-not just as a role, but as both a responsibility and an opportunity.

Changing the World is a global, timeless guide for small business owners who want their business to mean something more-without losing sight of what keeps it alive. It's about the quiet and immense power of stewardship: showing up each day with the intent to do right by your customers, employees, partners, suppliers, community, and the environment-and doing it in ways that are measurable, sustainable, and real.

Inside, you'll find accessible tools, checklists, and action steps, alongside examples from real businesses around the world. You'll also hear from thinkers and reformers-Rumi to Roosevelt, Emerson to Ohmae, Chouinard to Ruskin-whose wisdom echoes what small business owners everywhere know deep down: that smart, purposeful leadership rooted in care and dignity can change lives.

You'll learn that stewardship...

Is about strengthening your bottom line Is about growing your business and finding your extra to share Is about improving the world-through everyday work, on your terms

If you've ever felt like your small business could-or should-be part of something bigger, you're not alone. Your choices matter. And if you're ready to make a difference...

This book is for you.

Welcome to where change gets real.

David Grau Sr. is a full-time author and passionate advocate for small business stewardship. In a career spanning over three decades, David has advised thousands of small business owners on issues of succession planning and enterprise value. But more recently his focus has shifted - not away from business, but much deeper into its purpose. His current writing centers on a simple but powerful belief: that small business owners have the capacity, and arguably the responsibility, to leave the world in a better place than they found it.In his latest book, Changing the World Through Small Business Stewardship, David Sr. offers practical and professional guidance on how to be a good small business steward-not just of profits and shareholders - but of all stakeholders including one's community, customers, employees, suppliers, partners, officers, and the environment. He writes to a global audience of owners, leaders, and changemakers ready to do business differently...and better, for generations to come!
