SUSTAINABILITY
In a world of limited resources, what does sustainability mean?
Sustainability is the process by which long term - and widespread - benefits are gained. Widespread, meaning further than any particular business or the employees of that business, encompassing the suppliers, the producers, the consumers. This means shared benefit and a joint future based on trust, mutual respect and development.
Most business is based on the philosophy of maximising profit ... at any cost. It is this philosophy that has created many of the negative consequences of globalisation.
The world is changing.
Make no mistake: a lack of sustainability is bad for business.
Business that focuses on short term gain in order to maximise profit at any cost is increasingly in trouble. Short term gain at the expense of long term sustainability is increasingly difficult to sustain. The use of vast amounts of internal resources simply to maintain a market position can be incredibly wasteful. Can you really afford to continuously waste resources?
The world wants better than
this. In the
harsh world of business competitiveness, you need to be better than this.
The culture shift between short term gain and long term sustainability will always be fundamental and far reaching.
This does not mean maximising profit at any cost. Neither does it mean losing profitability. What it does mean is an enhancement of "ethical" behaviour based on a shared future - and displaying this to your customers who are demanding this type of ethical behaviour.
The world is indeed changing. The world is increasingly turning away from organisations who squander valuable, limited resources or who waste or who manipulate in the name of maximising profitability. Such organisations are increasingly being left behind by their own use of internal resources and state of perpetual conflict.
The world wants better than this.
