Becoming a sustainable business requires leadership commitment and a conscious and continuous effort throughout the entire organization. In The Conference Board report ‘The Role of Business in Society’ four barriers are highlighted regarding challenges faced when tackling the embedding of sustainable business practices within companies.
These barriers can be related to the ecosystem within which a business operates; short-termism and lack of consumer pull; or relating to internal factors, too much talk not enough action and a weak sustainability culture.
In this webcast we will discuss what organizations can do to overcome these barriers and to realize the full potential of sustainability in supporting business resilience. Now is the time to think of sustainability as a prerequisite to long-term business performance such as: more resilient supply chains, more efficient business operations, more innovative, customer-centric products, better long-term financial performance, and better employee engagement.
