Becoming Net Positive With Paul Polman
Sustainable Business

1h 3m
The economic system for business today is unsustainable. We are living beyond our planetary boundaries and have created tremendous inequality. Businesses must take the lead and responsibility by not being a bystander in the system. Define the pathway for building a company with a positive impact and that profits from fixing the world's problems instead of creating them. Join Paul Polman, an influencer, business leader, former CEO of UNILEVER, campaigner and co-author of Net Positive: How Courageous Companies Thrive by Giving More Than They Take, for an in-depth look at this new way of doing business that puts back more into society, the environment and the global economy than it takes out. We'll discuss how action on climate and across a range of complex and interrelated societal challenges is critical. These challenges require bold new partnerships across business, government and civil society, and net positive is as much for policy makers, activists, employees and others as it is for CEOs.
