🍃 What’s really holding your business back from sustainable growth

Last week, I shared the 3 most common problems keeping leaders from making sustainability profitable.

Here’s what they look like in practice.

Problem 1: “I can’t lead this.”

It’s one of the most honest confessions I hear from CEOs.

In my book, I tell Erik’s story, a CEO who wanted to lead his company in a greener direction but didn’t know where to start.

He’s not alone.

Many leaders feel like they’re “heading into a densely fogged and complicated terrain… full of cliffs, pitfalls, bushes, twists and turns.”

That uncertainty creates hesitation. But it takes far less to lift the fog than most leaders think.

Problem 2: “We are less attractive.”

When job applications slow and engagement drops, it’s not just a business problem, it’s a signal.

“It is no longer enough to have a great product or good salaries… something else is stealing the attention.”

That something is purpose.

88% of employees say working for a company with a strong purpose matters more than ever and 69% won’t work for one without it.

Problem 3: “Business is hurting.”

Competition is fierce. Costs are rising. Expectations are growing.

People now see companies as either part of the solution or part of the problem.

When you end up in the wrong box, growth, reputation, and profit all take a hit.
