Future-State Visioning & Scenario Planning​

A meaningful and successful sustainable business needs to be rooted in an authentic new vision and purpose of the organization, coupled with resonant core values that all stakeholders can understand and relate to through a clear corporate sustainability narrative. We facilitate collaborative sessions to define your sustainability aspirations and articulate them into a powerful narrative.

    • What positive contribution are we making to society because of our existence?

    • What’s our vision of the future in 10-20 years, and how will we succeed in this future

    • What core values must we embody to drive the realization of our vision?


Science-based Target Setting

We assist your organization in establishing ambitious and verifiable targets aligned with scientific principles. By leveraging methodologies such as OKRs (Objectives and Key Results), we help define clear and measurable objectives to guide your sustainability efforts. Our expert team ensures that your targets are robust, achievable, and contribute to overall business objectives.

    • How will we measure the success of our sustainability strategy

    • What metrics and targets should we track?

    • What strategic choices must we make to address our material topics?

    • What capabilities must we gain in order to deliver on our strategy

    • What should we expect our sustainability investments to return in the short, mid, and long term?

    • What management systems must we have in place to ensure we sustain our progress effectively and efficiently?


Baseline Assessment & Peer Benchmarking

    • What are leading industry peers doing to address environmental sustainability?

    • Where are the gaps between our current sustainability efforts and industry best practices?

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)

Analyze the environmental footprint of operations, products, and packaging through Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). Identify opportunities to reduce resource consumption, emissions, and waste throughout the product lifecycle.

    • What is the environmental footprint of our operations, products, and packaging throughout their lifecycle?

    • Where are the greatest environmental impacts occurring within our operations and supply chain?

    • How can we reduce resource consumption, emissions, and waste across the product lifecycle to minimize our environmental footprint?

Our approach emphasizes a comprehensive, life-enhancing transition towards becoming regenerative in four key aspects of a business: culture and organization, operations, products and services, and stakeholder ecosystem.

Although an optimal journey towards circularity would address all four areas simultaneously, in practice many organizations have varying levels of maturity in each dimension and we take these factors into consideration when designing our implementation methods. We meet clients at their level to strategically implement the most optimal approach.

Our Methods

Operations

Identify and tackle material issues in the company’s internal operations to ultimately achieve regenerative operations across emissions, energy, waste, water.

Stakeholders

Extend beyond the walls of the organization and create exponential value by transforming the organization’s relationship with all relevant stakeholders.

Organization & Culture

Embed sustainability principles, practices and mindsets into the DNA of the company, and across all levels of the organization.

Product & Services

Embed sustainability into products and services with the ultimate goal of achieving full circularity.
