Sustainability is not a cost, it is an investment to future-proof your business. Today's business leaders must be prepared to answer questions from stakeholders about their sustainability strategy and priorities. Implementing sustainable initiatives creates opportunities: attracting new customers who demand more responsible brands; meeting the increasing demand from listed companies for insight into their suppliers' sustainability strategy; attracting and retaining talent who seek purpose-driven employers; reducing operating costs through, for example, energy efficiency or reduced packaging.
To ensure that the strategy is sustainable, it is important to drive initiatives with a long-term vision. Redirecting all or part of the cost savings or additional revenue generated by successful initiatives into a dedicated budget will allow other sustainable initiatives to be funded at no additional cost. This will create a ripple effect and accelerate your transition to a more sustainable business model.
