4 crucial actions for driving sustainable transformation
Sustainable transformation, which began a few years ago, is undoubtedly one of the most complex challenges facing organizations as they continue their digital journey. It is a challenge, but above all, an unprecedented strategic opportunity to create sustainable value by converging three key transformations: digital transformation, business model transformation, and sustainable transformation.
To achieve this, the leaders driving change must satisfy four imperatives:
#1 Position themselves as pioneers of change and mobilize all teams and professions within the organization
#2 Go beyond compliance to build relationships of trust with key stakeholders by defining clear, concrete progress paths
#3 Listen, adapt to global developments
and understand their markets to create more sustainable and resilient business models
#4 Turn technology into an ally of sustainability
.
Connecting global efforts
The scale of contemporary upheavals—geopolitical, technological, societal, and environmental—serves as a powerful reminder of the crucial role of transformations.
Of vital importance, sustainable transition cannot be achieved without connecting efforts.
Rethinking business models
69% of companies have initiated discussions to assess the compatibility of their business models with planetary boundaries. Are regulations on the integration of CSR criteria, in particular the European CSRD Directive, set to accelerate this trend? This is the question at the heart of the 2024 CSR Barometer, which analyzes and deciphers the practices and maturity of 125 companies in terms of sustainability.
An expert’s view
In an increasingly fragmented environment, connecting different dimensions is absolutely crucial for organizations to stay relevant and thrive. This not only defends their interests by enhancing resilience and future-readiness but also preserves the vital socio-economic and environmental balance essential for creating long-term value. To achieve this, organizations must boldly integrate digital, business model, and sustainability transformations while fostering a culture of innovation and embrace new leadership styles centered on listening, intercultural dialogue, continuous learning, and a deep understanding of complex issues to truly lead the charge into the future.
