 The Triple Bottom Line One the things I hope XSMatter will be is a place for collaboration and entrepreneurship(as defined in this article ). And recently I’ve been reading a lot into the concept of the triple bottom line. And this has sparked quite a reaction from my internal bodily organs – if only they had heads, they’d be nodding in absolute agreement. So what is this triple bottom line thing? It’s a holistic developmental agenda that involves businesses making decisions taking account not just economic value creation but also social and environmental value. It’s rather difficult to comprehend how a board room would sit down and decide, “Ok…I think we shouldn’t have to make this much money if we can cut back the profits by changing some processes and save some trees along the way.” It’s a radical movement. But after reading and watching some presentations, I’m convinced that this is the way to go..even if the trend is not up and running yet..we’ve got to push for it. In a few weeks, I should be able to stream some articles out regarding my thoughts on why the triple bottom line agenda is something we have to adopt and what we can do in our own little capacities to get this off the ground… So this will be my personal XSMatter cause for 2007...
