015 The Sustainable Enterprise Part 1

Over the past few months we have looked at ways in which organizations seek to be open, authentic, ethical and at the same time more productive and efficient. In this two-part interview which will conclude next week, management consultant David Lipscomb outlines holistic approach to addressing all of these concerns (and more) within the organization by focusing on organizational sustainability in conjunction with accountability and transparency.

In the first of two parts, David describes how sustainability is built from the foundation of an organization and upward (and outward.) Focusing first on leadership, then the workforce, followed by customers, and finally the supply chain and all other external relationships, an organization can imprint sustainability, accountability, and transparency into its "DNA," ensuring that it has those qualities by default.
