1) Model & Principles

Sustainability Leadership = Baseline × Governance × (Abatement + Circularity + Optionality)

  • Baseline — clear inventory (Scopes 1–3) & materiality
  • Governance — policies, controls, assurance, transparent reporting
  • Abatement — cost/ton prioritized roadmap to targets
  • Circularity — reduce, reuse, recycle; design for recovery
  • Optionality — diversified energy, suppliers, routings, instruments
Informational only; not legal advice. Align with local/global standards per counsel.

2) Diagnostic Rubric (score 0–10)

Inventory & Data

  • 0–2: No baseline; estimates only
  • 3–4: Partial Scopes 1–2
  • 5–6: Scopes 1–2 complete; key Scope 3 categories
  • 7–8: Coverage >80%; quarterly updates; controls
  • 9–10: Full coverage; third-party assurance

Targets & Roadmap

  • 0–2: No targets
  • 3–4: High-level ambition
  • 5–6: Annual targets with initiatives
  • 7–8: Cost/ton stack; funded plan
  • 9–10: Science-based targets; audit-ready

Circularity & Waste

  • 0–2: Landfill by default
  • 3–4: Ad-hoc recycling
  • 5–6: Programs in core sites
  • 7–8: Design for recovery; vendor SLAs
  • 9–10: Closed-loop partnerships

Governance & Reporting

  • 0–2: No policy; no owner
  • 3–4: Policy draft; spreadsheets
  • 5–6: Controls, KPIs, annual report
  • 7–8: Quarterly board dashboard
  • 9–10: Assured report; continuous improvement

3) 12-Month Roadmap

Q1 — Baseline & Controls

  • Inventory refresh (Scopes 1–2; material Scope 3)
  • Emission factors & data owners assigned
  • Governance policy & risk register

Q2 — Abatement Plan

  • Cost/ton stack; prioritize low-cost wins
  • Energy mix plan (RE, PPAs, efficiency)
  • Waste & circularity pilots

Q3 — Scale & Supply Chain

  • Supplier data & risk program
  • Rollout logistics optimization
  • Embed carbon pricing in deals

Q4 — Report & Assure

  • External disclosure prepared
  • Third-party assurance
  • Next-year target & budget approved

4) 90-Day Sprint

Days 1–30

  • Confirm owners & data sources
  • Carbon baseline refresh
  • Waste & energy quick wins shortlist

Days 31–60

  • Run abatement pilots
  • Supplier request for data (top 10)
  • Embed carbon pass-through template

Days 61–90

  • Scale pilots; fund top projects
  • Draft report; board review
  • Quarterly assurance prep

5) Operating System (weekly)

  • Mon: metric check (tCO₂e, energy, waste, water)
  • Wed: project stand-up (risks, blockers)
  • Fri: summary to execs + next week plan
Make problems visible; fix in-process; document in SOPs.

6) Metrics That Matter

  • Emissions (tCO₂e) — absolute & intensity
  • Abated (tCO₂e/y) & €/t cost
  • Energy mix (% RE) & intensity (kWh/unit)
  • Waste to landfill (%) • Circularity (%)
  • Supplier risk (weighted) & HHI
  • Water use (m³) in stressed areas

7) Scripts & Templates

Supplier data request (email)

Subject: Request for GHG & ESG Data — {{Supplier}} Hi {{Name}}, as part of our program we’re collecting activity data (energy, logistics, materials) and policies (environment, labor, ethics). Please share {{list}} or a point of contact. We’ll align on formats and timelines. — {{Signature}}

Carbon price clause (proposal snippet)

Prices adjust by CarbonIntensity × ΔCarbonPrice × Pass-Through%. Floor/Cap {{-x%}}/{{+y%}}; review quarterly with transparent indices.

8) Interactive Tools

HHI <1500 low, 1500–2500 moderate, >2500 high concentration.

9) Risks & Anti-Patterns

  • Targets without a cost/ton plan
  • Supplier concentration & opaque data
  • Ignoring carbon price exposure in deals
  • Landfill by default; no circular design
  • Reporting before controls/assurance

10) Next Steps & CTA

Now: Run the tools (Carbon, Energy, Pass-Through, Circularity, Suppliers, TCFD).

Then: Pick one 30-day booster and set the weekly cadence.

Strategy & Positioning

  • ICP — Ideal Customer Profile: the type of company or buyer you serve best (e.g., “mid-market industrials in EU”).
  • GTM — Go-to-Market: how you win customers (channels, funnel, coverage).
  • CTA — Call to Action: the concrete next step you ask for (e.g., “Book a 30-min fit call”).
  • NPS — Net Promoter Score: loyalty metric from −100 to +100 based on “recommend?” survey.

Problem-Solving & Prioritization

  • MECE — Mutually Exclusive, Collectively Exhaustive: structure issues so items don’t overlap and cover the whole problem.
  • ICE — Impact × Confidence ÷ Effort: quick way to rank initiatives by payoff versus difficulty.
  • RICE — Reach × Impact × Confidence ÷ Effort: prioritization adding “how many affected” (Reach).
  • H1 / H2 / H3 — Hypotheses 1/2/3: statements you test to explain the outcome gap.
  • A/B — A/B Test: run version A vs B to see which performs better, statistically.

Finance & Economics

  • ROI — Return on Investment: (benefit − cost) ÷ cost; we also use “12-month ROI”.
  • EV — Expected Value: price or fee × win probability (used in proposal economics).
  • EBIT — Earnings Before Interest & Taxes: operating profit measure; often a target KPI.
  • TCO — Total Cost of Ownership: full cost to build or buy (setup + run + maintenance).
  • KPI — Key Performance Indicator: the success metric you’re aiming to move (e.g., “gross margin +3 pts”).

AI, Data & Platforms

  • MLOps — Machine-Learning Operations: deploy, monitor, retrain and govern models safely.
  • CI/CD — Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery: automated build, test and deploy pipeline.
  • PII — Personally Identifiable Information: data that can identify a person; needs special handling.
  • RBAC — Role-Based Access Control: users only see data and tools allowed by their role.
  • Model Registry — System of record for model versions and approvals.
  • Drift — Model/data performance shift over time; requires monitoring and retraining.

Sales, Pipeline & Delivery

  • CRM — Customer Relationship Management: system to track contacts, deals and activities.
  • Win Rate — % of qualified opportunities you close (not an acronym, but core metric).
  • PMO — Project Management Office: function that governs large projects and portfolios.

Planning & Cadence

  • Q1 / Q2 / Q3 / Q4 — Calendar or fiscal quarters (3-month blocks).
  • FY — Fiscal Year: your accounting year (e.g., FY2026).
  • v1 — Version 1: first working release you ship to users (“prove value fast”).
  • Sprint — Fixed timebox (often 1–2 weeks) to build and ship increments.

Commercial Packaging & Offers

  • Pilot — Small, time-boxed engagement to prove value and de-risk a larger rollout.
  • Tiered Offer — Three options (e.g., Pilot / Core / Flagship) to match scope and price to value.
  • Risk Reversal — Mechanism that reduces buyer risk (e.g., milestone-based fees or opt-out gates).

Governance & Compliance

  • SLA — Service-Level Agreement: commitments on availability, quality or timeliness.
  • Audit Trail — Record of who changed what and when (models, data, access).
  • Guardrails — Technical and policy limits that keep AI use safe and compliant.
