A societal push toward greater access and equity has spurred leaders across industries to act with renewed purpose and urgency; however, it has become increasingly clear that innovation alone will not be enough to solve these complex issues. With industry change comes new ideas that at times require a complete rethink of a company’s approach to business. Particularly as the moral imperative and business case for equity become clearer, executives are setting objectives that call for industry-wide change to ensure greater access and outcomes for stakeholders. What’s it like to help bring those ideas to life within a transforming organization and environment?
