Sustainability has been described as a continuous improvement process that challenges businesses to balance business expectations as well as the changing expectations of the external environment.  It is often demonstrated by raised eco awareness, innovation, technology advancement, risk management, and proactive change.  In each case, the common thread of collaboration can be seen through all of these actions. 

In pursuing sustainability, by definition, we are aware of the dynamic relationship with the people and environment in which we live out their daily lives.  Whether incorporating sustainability concepts into everyday living or creating a sustainability plan for a business, the ability to effectively engage the outside world in the process is critical to success.

"Sustainability helps build a new level of partnerships not just based on product development but based on sharing knowledge and expertise in order to accelerate transformation." Director of Sustainability at AkzoNobel.

In the corporate world, most business leaders agree that achieving real bottom line improvements, whether through cost savings or improved revenues, is critical to business sustainability.  However, these bottom line achievements are the result of close collaboration with key stakeholders committed to the business’s success.  The results of stakeholder collaboration are:

•    Employees actively engaged in the sustainability strategies of the business.
•    The supply chain working together under aligned sustainability goals.
•    Business responsiveness to the expectations of the consumer.
•    Business practices designed for minimal environmental impact.
•    Realized benefits of a supportive local community.
