Modeling the Shared Value of Industry Collaboration In this session, John O'Connor, VP Sustainability Research, Gaia Metrics (formerly, World Bank, IMF) suggests a model for applying models typically... John O'Connor
SLIDESHOW In this session, John O'Connor, VP Sustainability Research, Gaia Metrics (formerly, World Bank, IMF) suggests a model for applying models typically used to value 'own account intangibles' like capitalized R&D and brand equity to industry or shared intangibles, such as pre-competition collaboration and supply chain information systems. Case studies from diverse industries (computers & electronics, pharmaceuticals, textiles & apparel, mining, and alcoholic beverages) will be used to show how shared or industry wide intangibles can play a significant role in shareholder value, in some cases exceeding the contribution of the company's purchased or own account intangibles. These case studies will be used to propose a tentative typology for how businesses seem to use industry intangibles to maximize shareholder value. Topics for discussion include how businesses seem to use industry intangibles to maximize shareholder value, how examples presented might apply to other industries, and how the value of industry collaboration might be connected to income and expense data, to support return on investment metrics.

Mark McElroy
SLIDESHOW This session examines the advent of a new class of indicators in sustainability measurement and reporting known as context-based metrics, or CBMs. Unlike most of what passes for best practice today, CBMs express organizational performance relative to norms, standards or thresholds for what such impacts would have to be in order to be sustainable. Thus, they provide more literal measures of sustainability performance than are typically used, while also responding to the call for context in measurement by the world's leading sustainability reporting standard: GRI. The session will begin with a brief synopsis of contemporary metrics followed by an introduction and description of CBMs in details, with examples included. Mark McElroy, PhD, Executive Director, Center for Sustainable Organizations and leading researcher in context based metrics Leveraging CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) Data to Drive Business Value According to the 2011 Carbon Disclosure Project Report, companies in the Carbon Disclosure Leadership and Performance Index delivered approximately...

SLIDESHOW According to the 2011 Carbon Disclosure Project Report, companies in the Carbon Disclosure Leadership and Performance Index delivered approximately double the total return of Global 500 companies between January 2005 and May 2011, suggesting a strong correlation between good climate change disclosure and performance, and higher financial performance. This session details how best in class companies such as Diageo and Hess are using analytics provided by the CDP Reporter Services program to assess and maximize their return on investment from cost-saving greenhouse gas reduction activities and strategic business opportunities. Speakers: Roberta Barbieri, Global Environmental Project Manager, Diageo, Michal Pelzig, Manager, Reporting, Hess Corporation. Moderated by Jim Sullivan, VP, Strategic Advisor, SAP |
