In an era marked by increasing awareness of the urgency of cutting carbon emissions and tackling global issues such as poverty and food insecurity, the role of businesses in shaping a more sustainable future has never been more apparent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond profit, today\u2019s stakeholders expect companies to be accountable for their broader impact on society and the environment<\/strong>. As a result, measuring and understanding your organisation\u2019s positive as well as negative externalities has become a fundamental element of sustainable business practices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, impact measurement is a mammoth, multi-dimensional undertaking, encompassing a deep assessment of the social, environmental, and economic implications of your business\u2019s operations, products and services. So how should you formulate a roadmap for change, select the right targets, as well as assess and report on your progress? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To answer these critical questions, we spoke with Alisa Sydow<\/a>, an assistant professor of entrepreneurship and innovation at ESCP, following her participation in the ESCP Live debate<\/a> dedicated to impact entrepreneurship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For starters, she outlines the significance of measuring impact<\/strong> to begin with: it is an essential step towards responsible business practices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By acknowledging and accounting for the impacts they create, companies demonstrate their commitment to transparency, accountability, and sustainability. This fosters trust among stakeholders, leading to enhanced brand reputation and customer loyalty. \u201cConsumers prefer products and services coming from corporations that are taking their social responsibility seriously. It\u2019s a key element that could distinguish you from competitors,\u201d Sydow reminds us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the business case for measurement of impact clearly established, our expert provides a playbook for quantifying the costs imposed on society and the environment — information that can empower you to take positive action. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consumers prefer products and services coming from corporations that are taking their social responsibility seriously.<\/p>\nProf. Alisa Sydow<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Create a theory of change, a foundation to measure and evaluate impact  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Her first step is to create an initial framework for measuring and evaluating your company’s impact — which is known as \u201ca theory of change\u201d. By clearly articulating the intended outcomes, the pathways to achieving them, and the indicators of success, you can then develop robust monitoring and evaluation systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So how to create one? Sydow says your theory of change should answer three critical questions<\/strong>: what impact do you aspire to generate, what is the mechanism you will use to achieve that impact, and how will you know when you have reached your goals? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, she says it\u2019s important to map the \u201cchain\u201d of impact — which means illustrating the logical sequence of events and causal links between your company\u2019s activities and ultimate impacts. To provide context, Sydow gives us an example: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you struggle to recruit and retain highly qualified employees, then you may train existing employees to fill your skills gaps. If you follow the chain of impact, then those employees are likely to achieve a higher salary. That may lead to better outcomes for the employee\u2019s family, including paying school fees for their children. And that education can enhance their knowledge and skills while creating opportunities for a brighter future.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Select key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure and track impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once you understand the intended impact and desired outcomes you want to achieve, the second step is to select key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure and track impact. In doing so, Sydow reminds us that your KPIs should be tailored to the specific context and objectives of your organisation<\/strong>: \u201cThere is no one-size-fits-all approach.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another of her tips is to avoid selecting too many indicators<\/strong>, as it can be overwhelming and difficult to track and analyse. Focus, instead, on a manageable set of KPIs that provide meaningful insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, she recommends ensuring that the metrics to track impact are straightforward and clear, in addition to being as objective as possible. \u201cFor instance when training employees, you can first measure the increase in quality of their work based on producing more in less time, or improvements to the failure rate,\u201d Sydow says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Implementing and embedding changes takes time, so you\u2019ll need ongoing data collection to allow for the continuous monitoring of progress.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Develop a data collection and monitoring process <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The third step is to develop a data collection and monitoring process to track the selected KPIs over time<\/strong>. Our expert says surveys can help you gather the perspectives of stakeholders such as customers, clients, investors and staff to capture the impact you are generating in society. For example, if it\u2019s about curbing waste and emissions, you could ask your suppliers along the value chain about their activities, processes and inputs to understand the full cost of production.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improving survey response rates — which tend to be low — can be achieved by employing several strategies and best practices. Chief among them, our expert says, is clearly explaining the purpose of the survey and the potential benefits and impact the poll results can have on the organisation\u2019s externalities. \u201cBe aware of the fact you have to give back to the ones who are providing the data, turning it into a mutually beneficial exchange of information,\u201d says Sydow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll also need to determine the frequency of data collection, and it\u2019s not something you can do just once. \u201cImplementing and embedding changes takes time, so you\u2019ll need ongoing data collection to allow for the continuous monitoring of progress,\u201d says Sydow. By adopting a long-term perspective, you can address sustainability challenges more effectively, given that climate change, resource depletion, biodiversity loss, and so on, are inherently complex. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further, our expert advises companies to carefully evaluate and select reputable third-party providers<\/strong>, who can enhance the quality, credibility, and efficiency of the process. \u201cMost of the time you may not have this ability in-house, because collecting data can be time-consuming and resource-intensive for organisations. Third-party providers such as universities may have the expertise and resources to streamline the process,\u201d Sydow says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through such rigorous data collection and analysis, as well as selecting a manageable set of KPIs and establishing a theory of change, you can better understand the full consequences of your actions, and mitigate their negative impacts. In doing so, you can ultimately contribute to a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
