The Future of Business Sustainability — Extending Inclusiveness to People With Disabilities

People with disabilities constitute the largest minority group, at an estimated one in six people globally, but their needs often are overlooked. Businesses and other organizations that aim to be more inclusive might opt to create an environment where these people’s needs are understood. However, it is often difficult to recognize the best way to make changes. To effectively engage people with disabilities, managers need to understand disability and how their products touch disability, and how businesses can use their position to further promote education and advocacy while also building customer and employee relationships.

Investing for the future requires us to look beyond the P&L, and to hone in on an element just as important….the value we bring to society at large.

Ecocentricity Blog: The Triple Bottom Line Approach

"True triple bottom line thinking is not about doing well and doing good, but rather about doing well by doing good. Strong triple bottom line companies seek to operate in a way that creates value in all three realms simultaneously.
