What does it actually mean to build a people and planet-friendly company?

In this episode, Danielle and Louisa speak to Paul Polman, former CEO of Unilever from 2009 to 2019 and Co-Author of “Net Positive: how courageous companies thrive by giving more than they take.” Paul Polman works to accelerate action by business to achieve the UN Global Goals, which he helped develop. He has been described by the Financial Times as “a stand-out CEO of the past decade”.

In this conversation they discuss:

  • What it means to be a net positive business
  • Specific steps leaders and companies can take to become more people and planet friendly
  • The business case for net positivity
