SustainabilityHQ.com Weekly Highlights August 19, 2015

As more corporate enterprises launch their sustainability journey -- or enhance the journey as it matures -- the internal discussions are increasingly around: "Where do we go from here?"  "What are the stakeholders' expectations?"  "What are our peers doing?"  "What are the best practices for our company?"

Guest author Darcy Hitchcock on the Triple Pundit platform attempts to answer some of the questions raised and sets out what she sees as three distinct phases of the journey for your consideration:

• Phase 1.0:  Eco-efficiencies & Risk Reduction
• 2.0:  Competitive Advantage
• 3.0: Reinvention & Regeneration

She describes the typical activities in each phase and shares examples of company actions (Nike and CSR pioneer Ray Anderson and his firm, Interface).  Frameworks CDP and The Natural Step are referenced. The commentary is adopted from the author's book, Great Work: 12 Principles for Your Work Life and Life's Work.  Interesting take on sustainability journeys.
