Our quest for sustainability went beyond traditional notions of environmental conservation. We recognised the need to address disruptive issues such as globalisation, urbanisation, and resource scarcity in the adventure industry. Through extensive research, we unearthed the multifaceted dimensions of corporate sustainability, recognising its impact on stakeholder value, ethical practices, social impact, and long-term business viability. This deep understanding formed the foundation for crafting a sustainability strategy that aligned with the adventure brand’s mission and values.

A Comprehensive Sustainability Strategy
With a half-day workshop involving senior stakeholders, we delved into the existing sustainability and corporate social responsibility landscape within the wider category. This collaborative exploration shed light on the organisation’s current actions and aspirations. Drawing insights from competitor analysis and industry best practices, we developed a working definition of sustainability, or the “Sustainability Approach.” Key focus areas were identified as the building blocks for the forthcoming Sustainability Strategy.
Building upon the foundation laid in the discovery stage, we crafted an overarching Sustainability Strategy. This strategy seamlessly integrated with the organisation’s mission and values, ensuring alignment at every level. Strategic measures were defined to monitor progress and assess success, while an outline for future sustainability reporting was developed. Additionally, we established “sponsorship guidelines,” guiding the organisation in forging partnerships that resonated with their Sustainability Approach.
Through this collaborative and forward-thinking process, our client not only embraced sustainability but also positioned themselves as responsible stewards of their business and the environment. The comprehensive Sustainability Strategy served as a roadmap for long-term success, empowering the organisation to drive positive change while fostering transparency and employee development.
