Knowledge has never been more important. It creates opportunities for what we are doing today. And tomorrow.
The world can be challenging and unpredictable, but the changes in society can also offer new opportunities. Business is about more than economics and business. Business can be sustainability and passion. Business is much more than you think. For those who want to learn, there are opportunities everywhere.
Ingvild Sørensen first arrived in New York as a 24-year-old intern in a small UN project. Today, UN Global Compact has become the world´s largest initiative for sustainable business, with Ingrid in a strategic leadership role.
A rapidly changing world poses challenges, but it also enables us to grow and innovate. Change clears the way for new ideas, initiatives and possibilities for a more sustainable society. Knowledge is crucial here.
Sustainability requires fresh insights and a willingness to seek out better solutions. It is about making smart decisions for our planet, here and now, and for the future. But in order to do that, we need to understand how everything is connected.
We must be both brave and careful. We have to innovate, but also preserve the things that are good. We need knowledge to see the different perspectives, have the conversations and form the decisions that promote a more responsible world.
