New Mindsets – Transparent Society

The ‘circular economy’ – where waste is minimised and the most is made of all resources used in the supply chain – is pivotal to a procurement professional’s search for sustainable products and services.

This change is so integral to our work today that yesterday’s mindsets are requiring a whole new perspective especially when you consider that today’s emerging ‘transparent society’ and circular economy will be firmly real in 2025-2030.

These phenomena require much more than ‘corporate social responsibility (CSR)’ reports posted on company websites – in fact in many industries there will need to be a total rethink of the corporate/social relationship.

A mindset change on today’s older generation of managers by newer, younger industry entrants. Such a change has already started in sectors such as entertainment and food, and it will only expand as these younger generations enter maturity.
