Sustainable business strategies & business models

Clear Purpose

Want to learn how to do good and do well – or to get even better at it? Follow the road to sustainable business success paved by first-mover companies and pioneering social entrepreneurs.

From hardcore to heartcore business strategies

‘Clear Purpose’ focuses on how to create a solid link between your business strategy and your strategy for corporate sustainability and responsibility (CSR). This cornerstone serves as guidance and gives you the chance of having the competitive advantage of being an early mover.

In practice, this means engaging in social and/or environmental issues that on the one hand match your company’s business competences, challenges or opportunities, and on the other hand reflect your vision, mission, values and culture.

By broadening the CSR concept into including social innovation in your business, it can secure long-term growth and provide business opportunities that cannot be missed: it can open new revenue streams, new markets, new services and products – and in some cases radically different business models.

‘Clear Purpose’ is about putting social innovation into the heart of your business – and business into the heart of your social innovation.
