This means leaders should articulate their organization’s purpose, agree on 环境、社会和治理 commitments, initiate a culture change that embraces 可持续性, invest responsibly and seek out suppliers that align with their goals. To hold leaders accountable, some organizations are embedding 可持续性 into the business scorecard and tying compensation to 环境、社会和治理 results, with a growing focus on social 可持续性.
