Sustainability

Climate change and loss of biodiversity, the two issues related to environmental sustainability, are today’s prominent challenges threatening humankind and the whole biosphere. Considerable changes to our lifestyle – including economic activity – are needed to maintain our planet as livable. And companies must also do their part. While sustainability appears differently in different industries and types of business, all companies have one thing in common: sustainability is nowadays high on the strategic agenda. August Associates help their clients practically integrate sustainability with other strategic questions in various contexts. These include, for example, strategy work that embodies the sustainability perspective, financial steering development to incorporate the cost of CO2 as a key performance measure, commercialization of attractive green offerings, and supply chain & sourcing development to reduce emissions from the supply base.
