According to a recent Wall Street Journal (*), there is "a gap between talk and action" when it comes to how much businesses are embracing sustainability goals. They offer as evidence a gap between talk and action in regards to the hiring of CEOs. These are the quotes:
"Still, there appears a gap between talk and action when it comes to hiring CEOs and executives based on their sustainability experience. Last year, about 15% of 4,000 job postings for nonexecutive or senior executive positions mentioned sustainability, but only 4% at most required actual experience in it, according to a report by the United Nations Global Compact and executive hiring consulting firm
Russell Reynolds Associates."
"Businesses are doing a great job embedding talk of sustainability into descriptions about their company, but are falling short in driving decisions about which leaders to hire based on it," the report says.
Russell Reynolds CEO Clarke Murphy says he expects that to change in the coming years. "I don't think this is just chat, chat, chat."
