Article Summary:
Who: Theodor Swedjemark is Chief Communications and Sustainability Officer and a member of the Group Executive Committee of ABB.
Topic: ABB’s sustainability strategy and what other companies can learn from its journey.
Quote: “There are KPIs for sustainability the same way we have them for profits and revenues. We also have KPIs for other things such as safety or gender diversity and are continuously integrating more sustainability KPIs into our planning and performance management process. Our CEO and CFO review our businesses using those metrics together with all the standard financial KPIs. We are measuring those things on an ongoing basis because if you don’t measure it, you can’t fix it.”
