What lies beyond business as usual?

Business as usual isn’t operating at a level that respects the planetary boundaries. Fortunately many companies are already evolving beyond the 1970ies doctrine of Milton Friedman. Here, most of us have a lot to both unlearn and learn. Because the future always brings change.

In the context of the Sustainability Revolution, we will for instance see Better Business evolving as a key milestone on the journey towards the evolving paradigm of Regenerative Business. Where are you on this journey right now? Have you learned to surf the right waves? 

The future is as always an evolutionary journey that unfolds over time. A first important step right now is to help more business leaders and companies feel comfortable in stretching into Better Business.

A Better Business can be described as a future-ready company with a long-term perspective – guided and inspired by its higher purpose. This helps the organisation create, deliver and capture long-term value to its stakeholders. All while minimizing ecological and social costs, engaging its business ecosystem, and collaborating to change the world.

You as a business leader is crucial in this transformation. By providing purpose, direction and resources, you can contribute to meaning, transformation, growth – and even help enhancing the wellbeing of both people and planet, while future-proofing your business.

This journey starts with you!

Instead putting our heads in the sand, or seeing our potential contribution as limited, we need to realise that our zone of influence as corporate business leaders can be much larger than we tend to think. This is because the world of corporate business is particularly well equipped to help solve the problems of the world through the ingenuity, creativity, collaboration and resources that it can so often call forth more effectively and efficiently than other human organizations.

We, as corporate business leaders, can go far beyond demonstrating in the streets. We can actually move capital, minds and action, and cooperate to nudge consumers into making choices that co-create the healthy future that we want and need for our business, humanity and the generations to come—our own children and grandchildren included.
