Presenting numerous award-winning cases from companies such as Unilever and Umicore alongside original ideas based upon 20 years of consulting experience, this book reveals how to design and implement a stronger sense of focus and move sustainability programs forward. This proven combination of purpose, direction and speed is dubbed “Vectoring”. Based upon practitioner cases and big data analysis from the Dow Jones Sustainability Index, Vectoring offers a plain-spoken framework to identify the relative position of companies compared to their peers. The framework and its 4 archetypes deliver insights for practitioners to locate inhibitors and overcome them by providing practical suggestions for process improvements. This includes designing and executing new sustainability programs, embedding the SDGs within company strategy and assessing the impact of sustainability programs on competitiveness and valuation. Offering directions for CFOs to shift companies from integrated reporting to integrated thinking in order to accelerate their sustainability programs, Winning Sustainability Strategies shows how to achieve purpose with profitSummary: Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Patters of Frontrunners -- Chapter 3: The Quest for Purpose -- Chapter 4: Focusing on Materialities that Matter -- Chapter 5: Sustainable Development Goals -- Chapter 6: ESG Ratings and Stock Markets -- Chapter 7: Investors’ Perspectives on Sustainability -- Chapter 8: Encouraging a Culture of Sustainability -- Chapter 9: Partnering as Strategy -- Chapter 10: Towards a Circular Economy -- Chapter 11: Capturing the Sustainability Premium -- Chapter 12: Stellar Performance from Sustainability Teams -- Chapter 13: Embedding Sustainability into the Business Core -- Chapter 14: EpiloguePPN: PPN: 1041333811Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-BUM | ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXBM
