Want to Excel in ESG? Craft a "Green Ocean" Strategy. For many managers ESG competition leaves them feeling overwhelmed and under-equipped. It’s not surprising. This is a new type of competition, one that often means competing across industries. This means that it requires a new strategy — one that the authors call Green Ocean Strategy. For those companies with stakeholders that care about ESG, Green Ocean strategy is the ideal way to compete in the new and increasingly important arena of ESG performance. The manager who can find an ESG space where their competitor is absent and yet they can excel, execute upon it, and then effectively communicate that performance to their stakeholders, will help ensure the ESG success of their company.

Work | � | | Work Work Work Work Work Work Work Work Work SumUp pins $8.5B valuation with $624M debt-equity round – TechCrunch Elsewhere, in case you weren’t aware, this week was Amazon’s re:MARS — the company’s conference touching on various parts of its business. Frederic and Brian were on the ground in Las Vegas to report the latest, fighting both dodgy Wi-Fi and scorching temperatures. (Bless them.) Re:MARS’ highlights were perhaps a new Alexa feature that can mimic a voice given a brief recording, an AI-powered coding assistant called CodeWhisperer and a fully autonomous warehouse robot. No Robert Downey Jr. cameo this year, sadly. Work Security-as-code startup Jit comes out of stealth with $38.5M in seed funding – TechCrunch “With the rapid increase in the number of applications being developed and managed, product security needs to be simple and easy to use as code, as well as work within current CI/CD pipelines,” said Ed Sim, founder and managing partner at boldstart ventures. “Jit ensures that modern engineering teams can build secure cloud-based applications by design, all while simplifying continuous security. Jit is unique in that it unifies a variety of open source security tools while natively integrating the entire security as code experience into the current developer workflow.” Work Cozy houseplants and self-care: How one startup is reimagining mobile gameplay as a healing activity – TechCrunch Lumi Interactive, of course, is not the first to imagine games that aren’t goal-focused. There are games that are interactive stories or graphic novels or other indie projects, but they often still have the gamer play through the experience to come to a conclusion. Kinder World, meanwhile, would be something players come back to whenever they need to relax, which is why the company is considering a subscription offering, in addition to standard in-app purchases. It’s also exploring online-offline experiences with physical items that could unlock certain game benefits or activities. Work The next wave of supply-chain innovation will be driven by startups that help incumbents win – TechCrunch Enablers typically emerge or accelerate growth after their disruptive predecessors have introduced technology that reshapes verticals and customer expectations. They take on the unglamorous role of helping incumbents stay relevant. Perhaps because of this approach, enablers as a category have been surprisingly overlooked, especially considering their widespread proliferation across the supply chain landscape and the impressive outcomes they’ve achieved. Work Work Your Thursday Evening Briefing For centuries, scientists thought bacteria were too simple to produce big cells. Thiomargarita magnifica proved them wrong. Found in a Caribbean mangrove forest, these cells are thousands of times bigger than more familiar bacteria such as E. coli, which measures under a ten-thousandth of an inch — suggesting bigger, even more complex bacteria could be out there. Work Work Work Work Kyle Rittenhouse Announces New Video Game To Shoot 'Fake News' Rittenhouse announced the game on the same day that the Supreme Court struck down a New York state gun control law. Meanwhile, the Senate is planning to vote on bipartisan gun safety legislation drafted in the wake of mass shootings at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, and a grocery store in a predominantly Black neighborhood of Buffalo, New York.

It is very troubling that the UK is prepared to damage respect for [the ECHR) because of a single decision it doesn’t like. The bill [of rights] will create an acceptable class of human rights abuses.” Work Work Haiti: dozens of inmates starve to death as malnutrition crisis engulfs prisons The cell occupancy rate in Haiti stands at more than 280% of capacity, with 83% of inmates stuck in pre-trial detentions that in some cases can drag on for more than a decade before an initial court appearance, according to the UN. Many prisoners take turns sleeping on the floor while others simply stand or try to make hammocks and attach them to cell windows, paying someone to keep their spot. Work Work Work Labour unveils plans to seek limited changes to Brexit deal “This protocol bill is a charter for lawlessness that serves the interest of those who want to weaken the rule of law,” he said. “One of the most troubling aspects of all of this is the dangerous legal distortion that’s used to justify it.” |
