What Companies Can Learn from World Leaders in Societal Impact
Boston Consulting Group, 2019
Aperçu
Nordic countries are worth emulating in terms of their “total societal impact.”
Recommendation
In 2017, the Boston Consulting Group released its first report on “total societal impact,” arguing that social responsibility – not just shareholder value – should drive company strategy. Simply put, socially and ecologically responsible companies get better financial results. This follow-up report, published in 2019, highlights thriving Nordic companies that serve as role models of sustainable business practices and lends weight to the argument for corporate responsibility.
