Welcome to Episode 2 of AGILE Sustainability. In this episode, we are lucky to have an academic on business sustainability research Garima with us.
Garima is an Assistant Professor at the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies, at Georgia State University. One of her research focuses is to study how businesses balance profitability and sustainability. She has worked closely with businesses to understand how they act, think and make decisions around social and profit goals. And she is kindly sharing her insights for people who find balancing profit and sustainable goals challenging.
The topics in this podcast are:
- 00m43s: Introduction to Garima and her research
- 02m28s: Pressing motivations for business to initiate sustainability transition
- 07m42s: Crafting a sustainable plan in the face of volatility
- 12m24s: Useful systematic tools to dissect complex problems
- 14m06s: Measuring progress during sustainability transition
- 17m16s: Balancing profitability and sustainability
- 21m09s: Promoting collaboration between academics and business practitioners
One of the highlights from Garima’s insights on balancing profitability and sustainability is to challenge the assumption of a zero-sum game in business development in terms of resource allocations, and that social issues and business issues are decoupled. You can learn more about why these two assumptions should be challenged in the podcast. As a result, when businesses move further away from these two assumptions, they will open up more room for potential solutions and opportunities when incorporating sustainability in their business models.
