Sustainability, corporate citizenship, and corporate social responsibility are facets essential to any budding company, but how does one ensure that such values are imparted and maintained? Patricia Calkins, Global Vice-President, Environment, Health and Safety for Xerox, lets us on on how Xerox does it:
1 –Articulate clear, well-defined roles and metrics. Make sure that people understand their role and how they can help achieve organizational goals.
2 – Maintain a value chain focus. Recognize that your impact goes beyond your four walls. Understand how your decisions impact the world at large.
3 – Make sure your actions make economic sense. The first requirement of any business is to stay in business.
4 – Go for quick wins with an easy payback. Experiencing success will get more employees engaged, energized and excited about sustainability.
