publish something on organizational empathy

[chadwhitacre]

On today's call I talked about a post that's gestating. Here's a ticket for it! :-)

A braindump:

• Mini-rant: "If you receive value from a person or organization, you should reciprocate via a method of their choosing. If the person or organization states that donations are their primary source of income, you should donate money to them. We each bear the burden of empathy: to know our vendors and how they prefer to have value reciprocated, and then … to act!"
• Rifkin, Empathic Civilization
• http://theempathybusiness.co.uk/
• tie back to https://changelog.com/posts/open-products
• tie in to post on Gratipay blog forthcoming under show gratitude to company sponsors of gratipay gratipay/inside.gratipay.com#950
• tie in to https://opensource.com/open-organization/16/11/open-source-free-rider-problem
• possibly tie in to The Success of Open Source

Also relates to B-Corps / PBCs / co-ops, triple-bottom-line.
