"As the global leader in hand hygiene, it is our privilege to collaborate with scientists, public health officials, educators and our business partners in different communities to learn how to positively impact health outcomes."?says GOJO Vice Chair Marcella Kanfer Rolnick.?"Findings like those of Dr. Correa's inspire us to further advance our commitment to human and societal well-being and challenge ourselves to develop new solutions to meet the emerging health and hygiene needs of children, their families, workers and communities." At GOJO, social sustainability begins at home. They convened its first Sustainability Summit in 2009. This was a powerful call-to-action engaging hundreds of team members (employees), suppliers, thought leaders and other stakeholders through Appreciative Inquiry. As a result, team members are now dedicated to the pursuit of sustainable value in both the products the company develops and the processes to produce them. The company published aggressive five-year target goals in three key areas relative to the baseline year of 2010. Within just one year, GOJO had made significant progress on each goal: Reduce water usage by 30%?-- In saving 3.8 million gallons of water--roughly the equivalent of the content of 30.8 million water bottles--they achieved a first-year reduction in water usage of 13%. Reduce solid waste by 25%?-- In the first year, they achieved a 15% decrease in solid waste. Reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 5%?-- GOJO exceeded its 2015 goal by cutting its greenhouse gas emissions by 20% in just one year! In addition to delivering both social and environmental benefits, GOJO efforts are contributing to its economic success via greater efficiencies, reduced costs, product innovation and sustained growth, as illustrated by the company's annual double-digit growth over the last several years -- all proof that integrating sustainability into a company's business strategy can deliver bottom-line benefits. Here's one more impressive number:?"Bring well-being to one billion people every day."?This is GOJO's sustainability BHAG -- in the GOJO culture, that's an acronym for a "big, hairy, audacious goal," The company leadership knows that the most challenging goals are often those most worth pursuing. GOJO is one more example of a company achieving prosperity through a heartfelt commitment to advancing sustainability for the well-being of the world. I believe, to realize?A Flourishing World and?"7 Billion Well", the business community must find the courage to redefine success. Business as an Agent of World Benefit Noble-Like prize can serve as a catalyst to inspire companies to transform the business model from profit as a single aim, to "Sustainable Value" -- Doing Well by Doing Good. David Cooperrider asserts:?"The shift from shareholder value to "Sustainable Value" is the natural outcome of a new external environment characterized by declining natural resources, radical transparency and rising expectations... It's about today's companies and their partners unleashing disruptive innovations that address humankind's greatest transitional opportunities, on the pathway from non-sustainability to sustainability - to a world-wide state of flourishing." These hopeful visions of our future are not impossible dreams -- they are insights into the capacity of human potential. If we look around at the amazing things we have created, they were all considered impossible by the status quo at some time in their development. Like the seeds planted in David Cooperrider's heart and mind at his meeting with Willis Harman, I believe the seeds that hold a vision for better world lie within each of us -- waiting for the right time and conditions to germinate and grow. I believe this our time! We now have the knowledge, technology and the will to create a better world. Business can be profitable by being a powerful force for good, resulting in a world where people and the planet will flourish. May all your beautiful hopes and dreams come true in 2012 Leadership Development and Organizational Transformation Skype address: michelemariehunt
