Sustainability in Uncertain Times

With COVID-19 dominating business, other strategic issues including sustainability may have been placed on hold. David Hobbs examines what leaders need to be doing to keep their long-term goals in focus.

Featuring commentary from:

Ashley Phillips, Managing Director, Ørsted: Buy-in is really important. If you fail to do that, then sustainability strategies become a set of initiatives that just tick a box.

Harry Morrison, Managing Director, Accenture Strategy: We’ve got to the point where we should scrap the sustainability strategy, we should just have sustainable businesses.

Tim Doubleday, Group CFO, Burger King UK: Companies that react now are the ones that will feel less financial pain and reap the benefits of having sustainability at the heart of what they do.

Amy Francis, Senior Relationship Manager, Criticaleye: To put a serious sustainability business strategy into practice, your organisation must have a clear idea of the targets that need to be achieved.
