Sustainability-Based Management: Leaders vs. Laggards (PowerPoint PPTX)

Corporate commitment to Sustainability-based Management is strengthening.

Even as organizations overall are strengthening their commitments to Sustainability, one cohort of organization is expanding its commitments far more aggressively than others. They have emerged as Sustainability Strategy Leaders, while others stand as Laggards. This presentation discusses the differences between these 2 groups in depth.

Strategic approach to sustainability is the main differentiator between Leaders and Laggards:

Sustainability Leaders — Leaders act on their belief that Sustainability is already at the core of their business and is a necessity to respond well to shifting customer preference. They have succeeded in creating a compelling business case for Sustainability commitments and see these efforts adding to their organizations' profitability.

Sustainability Laggards — Laggards view Sustainability in terms of risk management and efficiency gains

This strategic approach also acts as a differentiator as to how Sustainability Leaders deal with other business parameters, such as:

•  Response to challenges and opportunities in Sustainability.
•  Approach to "terms" of competition in the context of Sustainability concerns.
•  Transformation of management practices in response to Sustainability requirements.
