Marga Hoek: “Achieving sustainable economic success must be the goal.”
Marga Hoek from the Netherlands is an author, speaker and entrepreneur. Her main topics are sustainability, entrepreneurship and business, she is passionate about sustainable business and innovation.
Sustainability in business means achieving long-term economic success without depleting resources and the environment. The results of the annual World Climate Conference, in which countries adopt clear measures to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, show that this is no easy task. The aim is to limit the impact on nature, people and the environment.
Marga Hoek’s work therefore not only makes an urgently needed contribution to business and industry, but also to the world. Without a rethink by society and the influential people who are part of it, there will be no change. The sustainability expert and visionary knows this only too well. That is why she is addressing those who can make a difference.
Marga Hoek: “The Trillion Dollar Shift“
In her latest book, “The Trillion Dollar Shift”, she examined how companies can benefit from transforming their business models by switching to sustainable products, services and processes. Marga Hoek says: “Taking ecological and social aspects into account not only benefits the environment but can also lead to financial gains.” Her main message can be summarized as follows: Climate protection and sustainable thinking are not antagonists of economic success. On the contrary, if they are part of the business strategy, they can make an extraordinary contribution.
Marga Hoek’s forward-looking and positive mindset has led her to the THINKERS 50 list. As a sought-after board advisor, keynote speaker and moderator, this is not surprising.
The three areas of sustainable entrepreneurship
Companies that focus on sustainability in industry and business must be measured against three main areas in particular.
The first is environmental protection, which involves reducing environmental impact through the efficient use of resources, using renewable energy sources, reducing waste and limiting pollution.
The second important area is social responsibility, as companies have a social responsibility towards their employees. This involves fair working conditions, respect for human rights and a commitment to diversity and the necessary freedom for personal development.
Ultimately, economic sustainability also means ensuring long-term economic performance. Companies should operate profitably and at the same time pursue long-term plans that ensure both economic stability and long-term growth.
According to Marga Hoek, companies need to adapt their business practices and introduce sustainable measures to enable sustainable business. This includes implementing environmentally friendly processes, reducing resource consumption, incorporating socially responsible decisions and promoting innovation.
Many companies are turning to sustainability not only to gain environmental and social benefits, but also to improve their brand reputation and ensure long-term business success. Initiatives such as corporate social responsibility (CSR), sustainability reporting and the implementation of environmental management systems are some of the ways in which companies can integrate sustainability into their business practices.
