Creating Innovative Green Companies
One of my very smart CEO leadership coaching clients knows that for his company to thrive his organization will need to become more innovative and green. I am consulting with the company executive team to develop a more innovative business strategy. They are currently evaluating several green business initiatives.
The CEO knows that thriving in the future depends on employees and leadership co-creating and executing the new business strategy. She is empowering her leadership team to think green and create a more innovative and accountable company culture. Leadership team members are collaborating with the CEO in the strategic decision-making process. Our current executive coaching and leadership consulting work is focusing on helping the CEO and her executive team to develop a more sustainable and green business model.
Green Recovery
In Green Recovery, Andrew Winston proposes four key focus areas for staying healthy today and getting ready for the inevitable upturn.
Slashing costs frees up money to prepare for future constraints and changing consumer demands. Figuring out priorities is critical. Winston suggests placing scarce resources in four strategic areas:
• Get lean: How can you economize your organization’s energy and resource efficiency?
• Get smart: What environmental data about products and value chains will save you money, help you innovate new solutions and create competitive advantages?
• Get creative: Rejuvenate your innovation efforts by asking challenging questions, such as “Can we run our business with no fossil fuels?”
• Get people engaged: How can you stimulate your people to solve the company’s environmental challenges?
These four areas will start benefiting your organization today, while preparing it for the future. Getting lean saves money quickly, but it also prepares you for a future in which higher resources prices will most certainly exist, and more questions from customers about your environmental impact will matter.
How can you gather data on your organization’s footprint up and down the value chain? Where can you identify high-priority areas for cost-cutting today? How can you intelligently plan for future long-term innovation efforts?
Getting creative means you not only have to optimize today’s processes and operations, but find innovative ways to develop tomorrow’s new products and services.
The engagement and alignment of all of your people makes these benefits possible. Green isn’t an additional, tangential pursuit that distracts from the real work of the business; it’s a core part of modern operations.
Are you working in a company or law firm where transformational leadership realizes the organization needs to make their business more lean and green? Does your company or law firm provide leadership coaching and leadership development to help leaders become more creative and develop a more sustainable business strategy? During uncertain economic times, leaders need to get smart, fully engage their people and create sustainable business practices.
One of the most powerful questions you can ask yourself is “Am I a smart leader who is creative and fully engages my workforce?” Emotionally intelligent and socially intelligent organizations provide executive coaching and leadership development for leaders who want to transform their organizations and thrive.
Working with a seasoned executive coach and leadership consultant trained in emotional intelligence and incorporating assessments such as the Bar-On EQ-i CPI 260 and Denison Culture Survey can help you create an organization that fully engages its people in creating and executing a sustainable green business strategy to thrive in the New Year. You can become a leader who models emotional intelligence and social intelligence, and who inspires people to become fully engaged with the vision, mission and strategy of your company or law firm.
