The Role of Business Leaders in Creating Value from Meaningful Actions

The collaborative insights, tools, and strategies businesses need to fundamentally increase value delivered to investors and society

As society looks to address deep problems, how can business enhance value creation?

Develop the insights, tools, and strategies to unlock change.

Consider the challenges we face personally:

“I hate you, Dad,” spits my four-year old son, Reuben, a scowl darkening his face.

I close my eyes and stop breathing a few moments.

I love the little guy, yet that word “hate” is so destructive, and Reuben uses it frequently when frustrated.

Late in the evening, I lightly place my hand on my wife’s fingers as we discuss our son’s mean habit. As parents, we want Reuben to share his anger, but constructively. Learning healthy patterns is critical for all of us, but difficult to master.

It will take trusting relationships among my wife, Reuben, and me to develop healthy emotion-management skills.

In many areas of society, we are also looking to improve challenging-to-achieve outcomes:

Such shifts tug at the essence of how we live.

The solutions will differ from those most celebrated during the Industrial Revolution. No magic glasses, innovative broccoli, nor high-tech pill will solve these challenges. Digital technology will support the solution, but it isn’t the answer, by itself.

We need coordinated actions that spur constructive decision-making, easier-access opportunities, and supportive information. Individual leaders will need to proactively reach across organizations. Individuals must be respected as members of recognizable groups, as well as individuals, and those individuals must trust business’ intent.

The call to action of such efforts should resonate strongly with business. Each social problem destroys billions of dollars in value. So the solution can directly deliver billions of reasons for investors to support problem-solving. And collaboration in areas critical for social answers is perfectly compatible with market competition.

Could a meaningful social responsibility strategy boost your business? Is there a demographic with which you’d like to further develop relationships?

Safeguard your future today, while positioning yourself to thrive for our children tomorrow.
