Chief Sustainability Officer, Microsoft UKDelivering on purpose does not have to be at the expense of profitability. In fact, by finding a careful balance of insight and the right technologies, organisations can align investment and innovation plans with purposeful commitments. That was the opinion of leading business figures taking part in our ‘Human-led, Tech-powered’ video series.
“Business is now part of the solution rather than part of the problem, and that’s a massive change. Companies are now reporting on non-financial data and outcomes with the credibility and accuracy they would normally reserve for financial data. And that is proof that they are taking this issue seriously.”

Organisations now recognise the need to ensure their growth strategy creates value for all, within their organisations and the communities they operate in. That commitment to the environment and society underpinned with transparency is essential, but requires the right level of understanding combined with rich data-led insights and the right technology to deliver.
“At the heart of all this, I believe it’s human behaviour and asking people to change how they’re thinking.”
Musidora Jorgensen,
Chief Sustainability Officer, Microsoft UK
From eliminating bias to ensuring correct and fairer reporting, as well as creating more sustainable business models and opportunities for marginalised groups, organisations must align investment and innovation plans with purposeful commitments if they are to create the right outcomes - for their people, stakeholders and society. And that is also good for business, with investors and other stakeholders increasingly expecting these behaviours from companies.
“Without taking action now, you’re going to lose out on the market presence you’ve currently got.”
