As CEOs and business leaders navigate a world of complex global challenges, sustainability is no longer optional but a business imperative. In this book, two sustainability leaders with decades of experience - Henrik Henriksson, CEO of Scania, and Elaine Weidman Grunewald, cofounder of the AI Sustainability Center and former chief sustainability and public affairs officer at Ericsson - offer a simple but powerful three-step model for leading an organization on a sustainability transformation journey that aims at big, audacious, world-changing goals.
Honest about the dilemmas but bullish on the opportunities, the authors advise leaders on how to accelerate sustainability in their organizations told through a Swedish lens, where the country's values and culture permeate the boardroom and the C-suite, bringing a unique clarity and conviction to leading with integrity.
In practical insights gleaned from the authors' own experience, the book takes leaders through the three phases of sustainability leadership: from establishing a solid foundation rooted in purpose, culture, values, principles and consistent, credible leadership, to integrating sustainability into the core business, and then to executing a vision that not only shifts the direction of the company but can change an entire industry and even the world.

If it had started with, his belief is, or he supports the theory, it would be more palatable.
But there are many opposing views on our climate and this approach is too totalitarian.
As a champion of sustainability in my work I see the need for sustainability not because of a climate emergency but as a need to live in balance with our needs and our planet.
The stories are very focused on three or four main companies with specific business types.
Whilst the book has the right type of existentialism that can and should be applied to our environment, I found the focus limited in its innovative tools which was a shame.
In all I gave this book three stars because much of the discussion is important but it just lacks scalability. It references so many groups and billionaire programs but Leadership should be about the examples every day people can do.
Interesting, challenging but lacks scalability
