In a recent TRIUM Connects podcast, London School of Economics Professor Matt Mulford and CSB Director Tensie discuss the importance of monetizing the benefits of sustainability efforts, challenges of relying on consumer demand to encourage firms to act in responsible ways, and the role of the state versus the firm in setting the rules of competitive markets. 

Excerpt: "For a corporate, embedded sustainability is when you are ensuring that your environmental, social, and governance strategies are part of your business strategy, not a corporate social responsibility initiative off to the side where you are doing some investments in the community or some employee volunteerism. It should be part and parcel of your strategy and drive your objectives, incentives, and bottom-line performance." 

TRIUM is a Global Executive MBA program through a partnership between NYU Stern Business School, the London School of Economics and HEC Paris School of Management.
