Rezensionen

"It has reframed my thinking around what it means to scale sustainability globally, and I share Kathryn's esteem for the common good of the planet as a lens for rewiring our systems and in turn, our behaviors, to achieve universal impact."

Lindsey Peterson, Global President of Earthforce at Salesforce

"Kathryn ably stares down the 'hard problem' of sustainability... bringing her pragmatic systems thinking to the challenge. The five transformational forces will re-shape the questions you ask in your business, in policy making, decision making and strategy setting. How might we harness these transformational forces to create a sustainable planet?"

Meredith England,

Director of Systems Innovation, Climate-KIC Australia

"Kathryn has done an amazing job of not only sounding the climate alarm bells but she also intelligently processes how digital technologies and transformations are crucial solutions to scale the change needed."

Eddie Listorti, CEO, Viridios Capital Global

"Kathryn Sforcina is a force of nature! Her passion for sustainability and creating change in the world is breathtaking, this new book from her offers both a stark reality check and a way forward through the complex and challenging world and contribution of the digital reality in which we live today. Kathryn Sforcina's work offers an invaluable contribution to the pathway to meet the United Nations Sustainability Goals. This work is insightful, challenging and deeply encouraging."

Stephen Moss, Managing Director and Chair, Symon Capital

"We're all pretty clear on the why and the what, but we're missing the how. 'HOW' do we fundamentally shift our approach to enterprise in a way that harnesses the power of technology to honour our humanity whilst recognising the urgency of the crisis we are facing? Never before have we needed the finely tuned minds of today's thinkers pointed so directly to solve the crises we are facing, like we do now. Sforcina's five forces has done just that, by taking the familiar and applying it to the wicked problem of sustainable growth.Sforcina's approach to these five forces, takes a sustainability mindset and turns it from being an esoteric construct or worse, an after-thought to business or commercial strategy, and breaks it down into something clear, tangible and most importantly, 'followable'."
