How to create shared value

Shared value brings purpose into the boardroom, enabling business to lead societal progress while making profit. Where to start?

Going beyond

Purpose

Companies are falling in love with the idea of purpose. And what’s not to love? Done well, a corporate purpose is energizing, inspiring, and creates a shared reason for being. But is simply declaring a purpose beyond profits enough? We think not.

Putting a company’s purpose into practice through shared value will drive impact at scale and enhance the company’s competitiveness. How to seize business opportunities nesting in this quest for purpose?

With case studies gathered over the last decade, we work with business leaders to transform purpose into action through organisational change. Our evidence-based approach accelerates shared value practices within companies.
