Why companies should stop throwing a party for every little ESG accomplishment
Briefly

Today's sustainability discussion has gone completely off track, having forgotten the question it was initially born to address.

The question almost eludes us because it is so big: What does it mean for a company to be sustainable and have a positive overall impact in today's global economy?
