The third edition of Capgemini Research Institute’s A world in balance series, Accelerating sustainability amidst geopolitical challenges, is a research-backed examination of the progress organisations have made in environmental and social sustainability in the three years prior. Targeted specifically at the CSO, the report carefully balances insight on the challenges faced by businesses and the recommended actions that this audience should take to overcome them.
Despite this being a heavily saturated topic, Capgemini’s objective annual progress tracking (rather than progress pointing) and the solid dataset of survey responses from 2,152 executives, as well as research into the traits of 6,500 consumers and 12 qualitative interviews, make this piece stand out above the usual corporate angle taken on sustainability.
Many organisations shy away from describing the services they offer that align with their recommendations. But Capgemini’s decision to showcase its relevant offerings at each stage of an organisation's sustainability journey, aligned to the roles most associated with those stages, successfully demonstrates the firm’s relevance and capabilities without being overtly salesy.
