The Sustainability Scorecard: How to Implement and Profit from Unexpected Solutions Audiobook

Using a rigorous, straightforward scorecard as a guide, this book shows business leaders and innovators how to create breakthrough sustainable products and processes that are good for the planet, human health, and profits. For decades, proponents of sustainability have promised effective ways to save resources and money, but they aren't moving the needle. The problem is that they haven't convinced skeptics that powerful economic incentives will work in their favor. This book makes a crystal-clear economic argument for sustainable supply chains and provides a practical scorecard for creating one that is understandable to any executive, inside or outside of operations. In the midst of "green fatigue," many leaders have lost sight of the business costs presented by hidden supply costs and toxic inputs in traditional supply chains. The authors show operations and implementation-focused business leaders how to innovate their supply chains to introduce and scale unexpected, cost-saving sustainable solutions. Through repeatable, reliable processes that address model design and key performance indicators, this is a practical guide that leaders can rely on to make their existing systems more sustainable and more profitable. The authors say it best: "To design a better future, you need to be a heretic today."
