The SDGs are your business | Generalist, or specialist? Join the discussion.

Generalist, or specialist? Whatever your stance, the SDGs are your business.
When it comes to taking action on the SDGs, the deep impact on a single goal or superficial impact on a range of them can lead to an unproductive tradeoff and mitigate real progress. We gathered B Lab’s Insights team, researchers studying the B Corp movement, and B Corp leaders to explore why real progress toward the SDGs will require the concerted efforts of generalized specialists across sectors, framed by a critical research paper published earlier this year. Tune in to be galvanised, plus hear more about practical tools and exercises to help businesses to take action for the SDGs.
