CLOSING THE GREEN GAP
The evidence is clear: sustainability drives business success. But actions speak louder than words, and too many companies take insufficient action to attain their goals. Success depends on reaching across business ecosystems to include suppliers, regulators, employees, and board leadership in sustainability efforts. Research from Oxford Economics and SAP shows that sustainability is at a turning point. The global survey of nearly 2,000 executives reveals that sustainability is widely recognized as driving efficiency, building brand reputation, meeting the expectations of modern consumers and employees, and driving profitability. In addition, fully 63% of respondents indicate that their company has a formal sustainability plan already in place.
