When it comes to leading the next generation of Sustainable Growth, one thing is clear: The old rules no longer apply. It will take an unprecedented double act: Reconciling the imperative towards economic growth and new value creation, with a need to create that growth sustainably and in alignment with wider climate commitments. Only a bold retooling of the way power is distributed in companies across Strategy, Sustainability and Innovation functions will unlock a new way forward. This will require a cohesive vision that eliminates silos, misalignment and competing priorities in order to embed the tools, technologies, and talent to deliver economic growth, new value creation AND sustainability simultaneously.
We explored a blueprint for this new kind of operating model, lay out actionable organizing principles and share case studies from how pioneering companies have approached the challenge (and opportunity) for radical change.
