a Sustainable match!!!
The answer
lies in integrating the two, i.e. Sustainability and Projects that a company
undertakes for transformation and growth. Projects
integrating Sustainable Methods
(PRiSMTM) is the method that answers the ‘How’ part. I signed up
with Green Project Management (GPM®) to become the first and the only licensed global
training partner in India to conduct PRiSM trainings, and conduct exams. Additionally,
I am collaborating big time on plenty of things for sustainability!
Dear
Reader,
If you were
wondering where I went missing – well, I was building a house for bring the
newly wedded couple to India J Yes, the latest news is that Sustainability married Project
Management!
I think it
is safe to say that most humans are caring by nature. We care for People, we
care for the Planet, and yes, we do need to care for Profit as well. Somehow,
in the race to accumulate wealth the other two are sidetracked often, and by
the time realization dawns it might be too late. The world has woken up to the
fact, and realising the damage being done in the name of development, growth,
and profitability – well, that is not a news anymore I know. Then what is? Read
on...
The new
Companies Bill 2012, in India, makes it mandatory for businesses to allocate 2%
of its income on CSR initiatives setting an example for the rest of the world. So,
is CSR still going to be just about philanthropy, i.e. signing Cheques for
charities, or will play a bigger role? Well, organising are fast realising to
the fact that CSR can actually contribute to organisational performance making
it more sensible to allocate that 2% to the function. Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR) is now about Corporate Shared Value(CSV) that can
deliver business benefits against the Triple
Bottom Line, i.e. People, Planet, and Profit thus making Businesses more Sustainable. How?
Cheers J
