Step 2
Execute
We invite your cross-functional business leaders and respective stakeholders to identify key challenges and define initial steps toward circularity. Internally, we engage representatives from brands, R&D, logistics, innovation, and sustainability.
At the systemic level, we consider involving your external stakeholders, for example, suppliers, research and government institutions, industry/sector at large, to gain a precise view of your value chain. Also, don’t forget your customer.
