NEW PODCAST EPISODE 🎙 Why new (circular) business models require new metrics and ways of operating In the latest episode of the Outcome Economy Podcast, Workpath founder Johannes sat down with Manuel Braun, author of "The Circular Business Revolution." They dove deep into the rise of the Circular Economy and how it enables companies to drive efficiency, resilience and growth at the same time. The discussion brought forward several frameworks from Manuel's book, like the "Circular Readiness Scan" and it demonstrated that the economy is beyond just theory; a wide range of examples prove circular business models become an important part of many resilience and growth strategies. Here’s a sneak peek at the three layers of an implementation framework they talked about: 🔍 Strategic Layer: It all begins with strategic clarity. How does circularity tie into your business case? The connection to your strategy is crucial. ⚙️ Execution Layer: Focusing on circular product design, building strong partnerships, and leveraging the right technology and the right data to enable effective implementation. 👥: People Dimension: No transformation is complete without the right people. Building new capabilities and fostering leadership that champions circularity is essential for success. In an era where sustainability and growth regularly seem to compete in strategy, understanding these layers is key to leading the charge toward a Circular Economy. 🎧 Ready to learn more?
