21st Century Pathways — Everything You Need to Know
In the upcoming decades, businesses will be threatened by mega trends such as middle-class population growth, scarcity of resources, the impact of externalities and climate change. The world is changing rapidly, and businesses must change with it or risk being left behind in the wake. 21st Century Pathways is an excellent resource for businesses looking to grow and profit despite these inevitable events.
This workshop is intended to help businesses understand the risks and opportunities presented by these mega trends. Participants will develop a comprehensive, customized plan designed to incorporate sustainability into their business. This plan will benefit their business by resulting in:
Reduced cost and risk by cutting energy, water, waste, materials and negative social and environmental impacts
Revenue growth by either launching a separate line of sustainability advantaged products, services and solutions or by embedding environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into your products and services (integrating ESG factors has been shown to have potential long-term performance advantages)
Innovating and investing in technologies and businesses that create options for future growth — which may involve helping your customers reduce their footprint
Taking these actions will strengthen your brand and reputation — providing greater access to capital and talent – resulting in competitive advantage.
Now that you know why you should join, let’s talk more about what happens at the workshop.
21st Century Pathways is a five-day hands-on workshop designed to help businesses develop a complete custom 3-Year Sustainability Plan with ROIs. By completing this plan your organization will:
