One of the most powerful practices for improvement: Providing tools and processes

How would we recognize these results in measurable terms if we fell over them? So, for example, the rate of low-birthweight babies helps quantify whether we're getting healthy births or not. Third grade reading scores help quantify whether children are succeeding in school today, and whether they were ready for school three years ago.

2 Types of Measures: Broadly Speaking

• Eg, $20M invested over 5 years in financial education for middle and high school students

• Eg, 5,000 employees volunteered in classrooms

Inputs (things you

do)

• Eg, $20M enabled intensive school-based co-curricular digital financial education course to reach 2M students in 5 years, for 10M hours of aggregated learning

• Eg, 10,000 employee volunteer hours

Outputs (what is done

with the resources)

• Eg, students showed a 53% knowledge gain• Eg, HS graduation rates of participants 27%

higher• Eg, 40% increase in morale indicators and

20% increase in retention rates for employee volunteers

Outcomes (what has changed, impacts)

3 Internal ROI: Examples of Direct ROI

• Oxford analyzed 200 academic studies: 90% show good ESG lowers cost of capital; 80% show stock price performance positively correlated with good CSR

A. Corporate Performance

• McKinsey survey: 1994-2011 Dow invested ~$2B to increase resource efficiency and saved $9.8B from reduced energy & wastewater consumption

B. Efficiencies & Cost Reductions • Unilever generates >1/2 of its sales from

developing markets. Signature BOP product, Pureit, a countertop water-purification system (India, Africa & Latin America)

C. New Products & Markets • Unilever “brands with purpose” are growing

at 2X rate• GE Ecomagination has generated $232B in

revenue• IKEA’s “Sustainable Life at Home” line

generates $1B

D. Increased Sales

• The CISCO Networking Academies initiative has solved a key barrier to CISCO’s growth―lack of qualified workers to administer their networks

E. Challenges Solved

3 Internal ROI: Examples of Indirect ROI

• A study of what types of news coverage affected evaluation of a firm and intent to purchase and CSR was the only significant factor

F. Brand/Image/ Reputation • United Technologies new jet engine cuts

fuel burn & CO2 emissions by 16%, cuts release of particulates 50%, dramatically muffles engine roar – It’s the future

G. Innovation

• Study found that morale was 55% higher in companies with strong sustainability programs, compared to those with poor ones, and employee loyalty was 38% higher

H. Talent• A study of the gold mining industry found

stakeholder relations can heavily influence land permitting, taxation, & regulatory environment

I. Key Influencers

• In a study of 8K suppliers (to 75 multinationals): 72% said climate change risks could significantly impact their operations, revenue, or expenditures

4 External ROI

• Based on existing research, current best practices and fresh creative thinking, identify a “Theory of Change”

How Can We Move the Needle?

• Test the “Theory of Change.” Did the strategic actions achieve the desired results?

Is This Theory of Change Correct?

• How much was achieved? Is there a way to improve effectiveness?

How Much Did We Move the Needle?

• This process will help prove and improve the change generatedExternal ROI

Scenario Analysis(cash flows)

The sum of the discounted future cash flows of an investment

opportunity is $100.

If Irving Fisher were alive today, what valuation would he assign to

this opportunity?

Fisher (1867 – 1947) first formalized the NPV formula in his 1907 classic text “The Rate Of Interest.” He also gained infamy for his 1929 pre-crash assertion that the stock market had

reached “a permanently high plateau.”
