About the Book

Book Synopsis

Digital transformation is the linchpin of a sustainable and resilient future. Adapt, innovate and thrive in the face of disruption by integrating advanced technologies and sustainable practices with this essential guide.

Today's business leaders are navigating uncharted waters, tasked with balancing profitability, stakeholder expectations and the urgent need to address global sustainability challenges. While digital technologies are revolutionizing industries, many leaders remain unprepared to harness their full potential for sustainable impact. Digital Sustainability fills this critical gap by exploring how digital transformation can be a powerful enabler of sustainability. It goes beyond the buzzwords of ESG and DEI to offer strategies for integrating digital tools and systems into sustainable business practices.

Covering innovative topics such as real-time analytics, AI-powered tools and automation, Digital Sustainability includes actionable insights and deep analysis with real-world examples. Focusing on practical, scalable strategies that corporate leaders can adopt immediately, this book will be less about 'why' and more about 'how' leaders can implement digital technologies into their sustainability practices. Through robust, ready-to-use frameworks, this book equips leaders to navigate the challenges of digital transformation while ensuring their organizations thrive in a world increasingly defined by environmental and societal constraints.
