Vectoring
Vectoring step 1: getting the bearings right
- Less is more in selecting objectives
- Shareholders react positively when companies deliver on key sustainability issues
- Focus is key to proper implementation
Vectoring step 2: accelerating execution
- Deliver value through reputation, cost reduction, and growth
- Reporting trap → focus too much on reporting activities instead of doing sustainability
- Eco-efficiency = good indicator of maturity of execution of sustainability programmes
- Direct benefits of sustainability programmes can be found in reductions in waste,
energy, water, and natural resources → leads to lower costs
