[Rethinking Business and Circular Economy with John A. Lanier](https://intheloopgame.com/podcast/017/)

John A. Lanier is the executive director of the Ray C. Anderson Foundation. John works to advance the legacy of Ray C. Anderson (1934-2011), his grandfather, the founder of carpet tile manufacturer Interface, Inc. Twenty years ago, Ray detailed his and Interface’s sustainability journey in his book *Mid-Course Correction*, and John has now released an update called *[Mid-Course Correction Revisited](http://www.midcourse.org)*. In this podcast interview with Katie Whalen, John discusses Ray’s legacy, what has happened in the 20 years since Ray first documented his journey, and John’s vision for the future.
