In today's dynamic business environment, employee activism has emerged as a prominent force shaping the relationship between companies and their workforce. How can leaders successfully adjust in this transformed landscape? How can they effectively foster productive interactions with their employees, which mend and fortify the corporate culture?

Afdhel Aziz argues that companies need to set the bar higher from mere ’sustainability’ (replacing what they use in a net-neutral manner) to ‘regeneration’ (actively restoring and repairing the world in a net positive manner). He suggests that Chief Sustainability Officers should re-name themselves Chief Regeneration Officers and frame their company ambitions around not just ‘giving back’ but ‘paying it forward’ - to future generations of leaders, employees, and humanity.
