Here’s a podcast Mallen Baker and I taped this week on how to get a new boss signed up to responsible business.
Hopefully it’s vaguely useful. Mallen’s recent article on the topic might also be of some help next time a new chief exec turns up at your company.

I'm Tobias Webb, founder of Innovation Forum and Sustainable Wine. I write on this blog, with others, about areas of interest to me in supply chains, circular economy and sustainability in general. I hope you find it useful. I've worked in sustainability for about 20 years, and work with large companies, NGOs and governments all over the world. I often act as facilitator, at our conferences, and other meetings, either private or multi-stakeholder. I also work as a 'critical friend' advisor to companies on strategy and stakeholder engagement. I have a separate wine website on sustainability in wine at Sustainable Wine and more on Innovation Forum`s work can be found here.

Interesting point about CEOs – according to Aron Cramer Second, board level recognition that sustainability can spark innovation that delivers a competitive advantage and it's not simply a risk mitigation exercise has led some of the world's most prominent CEO, such as Unilever's Paul Polman, Walmart's Mike Duke, and Procter & Gamble's Bob McDonald to link their companies' reputations, and their own, to their sustainability performance http://bit.ly/gUoTXw
