Sustainability has been a facet of business, public policy, and civil society since 1987 when Our Common Future was published. Over the last four decades, the expectations for the role of business in sustainability have evolved with shifting economic, political, social, technological, and environmental dynamics.
Many believe that, over the past year, we've reached a new inflection point in the sustainable business agenda. With sustainability objectives and activities facing increasing questions and challenges inside companies, sustainable business leaders are being asked to demonstrate the business value of sustainability in terms that can be understood and appreciated by diverse internal audiences.
BSR and GlobeScan, with input from several leading companies, have considered the changing context of the business value of sustainability. Join us to explore these new dimensions and discuss practical strategies to help sustainable business leaders and teams communicate the business value of sustainability in ways that resonate across functions and leadership priorities, demonstrating how sustainability directly supports efficiency, resilience, innovation, and long-term profitability.
