Abstract:
The United States became a great economic power as an outgrowth of developing a culture of innovation.
Sustainability as a credible business strategy is an outgrowth of the impact the field of Business Ethics
has on business practices. Systemic stagnation, an outgrowth of the current economic crisis, threatens
American economic power and the leadership role America plays in innovation and sustainability. This
paper explores these concomitant issues and proposes a Citizen’s Examination of Entrepreneurial Will to
address them and to stimulate discussion of the need for a dynamic re-enculturation that affirms
innovation and sustainable ethics as core American values.
