Titel: The Adventure of Sustainable Performance Auteur: Stuart Mclachlan ISBN: 9781394177417 Conditie: AsNew The Adventure of Sustainable Performance will help leaders reset their ambitions for sustainability and organisational performance. This book starts by highlighting the reality of now. Then, by guiding the reader through the challenges of ESG compliance, it presents this new landscape as a platform for value creation. Finally, it uncovers the opportunities of net-zero, circular business models and a more just and inclusive capitalism as having huge potential in a new emerging era. Having interviewed dozens of C Suite officers in different industries and based on decades of experience as guides to progressive leaders and pioneers around the world, the authors distil the need and show the way. McLachlan and Sanders show the insufficiency of “business as usual” models that place maximisation of shareholder value above other stakeholders and natural resources. They argue powerfully and with practical case studies and illustrations how organisations need to build “total value systems” for all stakeholders and to ensure the transition of value creating assets into the economy of the future. This is an inspirational and practical guidebook from pioneers who work with leaders at the vanguard of this transition in large multi-national organisations, the public sector and start-ups. Reading this book sets out an exciting invitation to remind us that the real spirit of enterprise is creativity, courage and vision. “Finally! The Adventure of Sustainable Performance is the ESG guide and an invaluable resource for CEOs, CFOs and any enterprise striving to meet stakeholder expectations. The authors remind us that we must go beyond environmental responsibility and fulfil our corporate social and governance obligations. Embarking on an ESG journey is no longer a nice-to-have; it is a business imperative.” —Gina Mastantuono, Chief Financial Officer, ServiceNow “In The Adventure of Sustainable Performance, Stuart McLachlan and Dean Sanders remind us of the power of leadership in steering our enterprises and economies towards a decarbonised and regenerative future. At Rainforest Alliance we share the conviction that partnerships between the private sector, NGOs and governments are key to accelerate the shift to what the authors call “total value systems” at the scale required this decade. This is essential reading for any leader who wants to be part of shaping that future.” —Santiago Gowland, Chief Executive Officer, Rainforest Alliance A guidebook for leaders to create value from sustainability and organisational performance.
