Society We have the capacity to build a better future right now. Some leaders are driving a fundamental redefinition of value by adopting new metrics and standards.
"We know the world we want. It’s spelled out in the Paris Agreement and Agenda 2030. Even before COP26, world leaders were well-versed in the dire situation at hand; so, why is it so hard to create a plan of action? "Those of us working to bring to life this concept of “business as a force for good” often find ourselves running up against the same wall over and over: Our current economic system is not designed to balance ‘people, planet, profit’ — and often works against those trying to change it. "So, how do we change the system we’re in? The pragmatic answer is to work with it. We must find a way to redefine value so that global corporate actors can harness their power, influence and potential to build a better system." |
