The competition for FOOD, WATER, LAND and ENERGY will intensify.

Addressing sustainability
• Firstly seriously discussed in the 1980s • Led by the United Nations • Focus on critical issues of environment and
development • Strengthen international cooperation • Population, food security, the loss of species
and genetic resources, energy, industry, and human settlements are all interrelated
![Page 32: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Sustainable Development
“Development which meets the needs of the present, without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”
- Our Common Future The Brundtland Commission Report (1987)

The world is using the equivalent of one and a half planet to support life on Earth
![Page 37: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
“Our consumption of the Earth’s natural resources is depleting the
planet’s ability to replenish itself - and to sustain life on earth.”
- WWF Global Report
![Page 38: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• 3/4 of the world’s fisheries are over-fished • Half of the world’s original forest has been
destroyed. Additional 2% lost every year. • Species extinction is currently 1,000x the
natural evolutionary rate • 1/4 of all the birds and mammals on earth
are in danger of extinction. • Climate change is already happening, and
poses a threat unlike any other facing civilization.
![Page 39: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
So what does it all mean for a small country like Aruba?
![Page 40: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Our current challenges… • Real GDP per capita remained virtually flat since 1990. • Uneven income distribution. • Population density: 550 inhabitants per square kilometer. • Individuals aged 60+ will double between now and 2025. • 42% of Aruba’s population is currently chronically obese. • A public health care deficit that is growing. • Educational performance below expectations. • Increased crime and other social problems. • Huge government deficits.
![Page 41: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Finding the right balance…
We should strive to maintain a delicate balance between our need to improve lifestyles and feeling of well-being on one hand, and preserving natural resources and ecosystems, on which we and future generations depend on the other hand.
Improvement of lifestyles
and well-being

Preserving natural
resources and

So where do we go from here?...
It’s more than obvious that a new economic, social and environmental (strategic) model needs to be implemented……
Sustainability should be the primary focus
![Page 43: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

priorities. • We respect and live within the natural resources and limits of
our island. • We must achieve a diversified and dynamic economy (beyond
tourism). • We honor our culture and values • We make decisions based on meeting the present needs without compromising the needs of future generations. • Everyone — individuals, families, communities, businesses and government — has accountability for achieving a sustainable
Aruba.

An outdated approach to business and value creation
• Companies have overlooked the wellbeing of their customers the depletion of natural resources vital to
business the viability of key suppliers “the economic distress of the
communities in which they produce and sell”
![Page 59: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
New leadership calls for a new approach to conducting business Visionary leaders think ‘sustainable’….

• Environmental resources are limited and are quite sensitive to everything that we do.
• We are starting to experience the effects of the actions of generations that came before us.
To make sure that future generations will not experience worse, we need to be aware of the ideals and requirements of sustainability….
Think sustainable….

Corporate Social Responsibility (maatschappelijk verantwoord ondernemen)
…..the integration of business operations and values, whereby the interests of all stakeholders including investors, customers, employees, the community and the environment are reflected in the company's policies and actions.
Also known as: sustainable entrepreneurship
![Page 62: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Sustainable enterprises

2. Supplying or consuming environmentally friendly products or services that replaces demand for non green products and/or services.
3. Greener than traditional competition. 4. Enduring commitment to environmental principles

Why practice CSR?
• Companies have learned the hard lesson that without a sustainable society, there is no sustainable business….
• So in instead of focusing on short-run returns • Companies focus on contributing to long-
term societal well-being in which everybody can develop and grow.

CSR towards a new approach? CSR can only be resilient if it is part of the DNA of an organisation, i.e. CSR will only survive the vagaries of fickle markets, fluctuating profits, financial crises and leadership whims if it is totally embedded in the corporate culture, strategy and governance systems”

Let’s start from the very beginning....
Porter and Kramer How to reinvent capitalism – and unleash a wave of innovation and growth
Harvard Business Review 2011
![Page 70: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Companies must bring business and society back together
• Shared value – creating economic value in a way that also creates value for society by addressing its needs and challenges.
• “Business must reconnect company success with social progress.”
![Page 71: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Entrepreneurship on Aruba
![Page 72: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Aruba entrepreneurs
• Competition oriented (no differentiation) • Same products in same markets • Fear of trying out new things • Lack of motivations (comfort zone) • Technically challenged (so much more
out there)
![Page 73: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Basic conclusion
A change in the fundamental entrepreneurial thinking on Aruba should happen quickly, otherwise the small and medium business sector will autodestruct itself through far-going cannibalization…
Innovation and sustainable entrepreneurship is the key…
![Page 74: Shared Value and Sustainable Entrepreneurship](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554ed0f8b4c905064d8b5336/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Developing smart ventures • Innovation • Sustainability • Diversification • Productivity (resource efficient) • Smart growth • High-skilled jobs • Driven by technology • Shared value
