How should business respond to handle these changes? What is the best
strategy for your business?
© AtKisson, Inc. Systainability Asia 2014 / www.systainabilityasia.com
Some rules to guide us: A business, organisaAon, community, or society will be sustainable if it…
1. … understands its own systems, and the systems in which it is embedded;
2. …. understands and accounts for limits and system dynamics;
3. … looks for and responds to long-term systemic trends that affect its ability to achieve its goals;
4. … changes internally to meet and take advantage of external conditions and trends;
5. … is resilient enough to withstand short-term shocks;
6. … does not undermine the conditions of its own existence;

QuesAon? Does your company bolt on sustainability or is it embedded
sustainability?
What is the difference?
© AtKisson, Inc. Systainability Asia 2014 / www.systainabilityasia.com
Bolt on vs. Embedded Sustainability
Embedded sustainability incorporates environmental, wellbeing, financial governance, and social values into the company’s core business, while balancing shareholder and stakeholder value.1 It requires a fundamental shift across every dimension of the business system
Bolt on Sustainability Embedded Sustainability
Goal Pursue shareholder value Pursue sustainable value1
Scope Add symbolic wins in the margins Transform core business acAviAes
Customer Offer green and socially responsible products at premium prices or with diminished quality
Offer smarter soluAons with no trade-‐off in quality and no social or green premium
Value Chain Mange company’s own acAviAes Manage across the service or product life cycle value chain
Organisa<on Create a special department of sustainability
Make sustainability everyone’s job
Competencies Focus on data analysis, planning, and project management skills
Add new competencies in design, inquiry, appreciaAon and wholeness

“Mindset” (noun) – a set of beliefs or a way of thinking that determines
one’s behaviour, outlook and mental attitude.

Embedded Sustainability… Key points!
ü Embedded Sustainability is the future of business.
ü Embedded Sustainability will ensure new behaviours, new products & services, new business models, and new performance outcomes.
ü Embedding Sustainability entails a whole system approach.
ü A whole system approach to sustainability requires a shift or change in “mindset” of leaders and employees.

The FoundaAonal Tool . . The Compass An Orientation, assessment, planning and collaborative
action tool for sustainability and transformation
© AtKisson, Inc. Systainability Asia 2014 / www.systainabilityasia.com
Assist organisations to do all of the following…
Ø Create better understanding of sustainability
Ø Create a sustainability vision
Ø Manage stakeholders in a sustainability process
Ø Create or manage a set of sustainability indicators
Ø Create an Overall Sustainability Index
Ø Assess the sustainability profile of a company
COMPASS is the founda<on of the toolkit
ISIS ACCELERATOR
The Sustainability Compass is designed to accommodate many kinds of differences: cultural, sectorial, geographic, etc. It is also designed to interface well with other common frameworks (e.g. GRI, ISO 26000)
© AtKisson, Inc. Systainability Asia 2014 / www.systainabilityasia.com
Nature
Society
Wellbeing Economy
The “Economy” Principle: Human socieAes, communiAes, and organizaAons need funcAoning
economies to provide for their needs and to support their aspiraAons.
The “Society Principle”: Social systems should be organized in ways that
promote equity, fairness, resilience, and opportunity for all.
The “Wellbeing Principle”: Human beings have a right to be to be safe, to have access to healthcare, and to have the opportunity for self-‐expression, self-‐development, and a
good quality of life.
The Compass Principles The “Nature” Principle:
The physical and biological limits of Earth’s ecological systems must be
respected.
ISIS ACCELERATOR Built into the Compass approach is a set of core guiding principles about sustainability
© AtKisson, Inc. Systainability Asia 2014 / www.systainabilityasia.com
The “IntegraAon Principle”: All four dimensions of the Sustainability Compass are
interconnected in a web of cause-‐and-‐effect relaAonships. They are interdependent on each other.
• The Compass approach is grounded in the science of system dynamics and in general understanding of how complex systems behave.
• In recognition of this principle, governance and management systems should strive to achieve optimal results across all four Compass Points in an integrated way.

Accelerator Exercise Scenario ü The Phuket New Millennium Hotel is a new 5-star hotel that has already
established itself as a trendy, environmentally friendly, and fun hotel for singles, young couples and families looking for something different from the traditional hotel package and experience. For these guests, the environmental and social ethos and practice are both ingredients in their decision to stay at this property, and also as part of their overall experience.
ü The hotel CEO would now like to go a step further, and have the hotel differentiate itself as Phuket’s first genuinely Sustainable Hotel, and the leader and model of integrated sustainability for all hotels, not just from the environment side, but also in terms of economic practices, social engagement and responsibility, and guest and employee wellbeing.
ü You are a member of the newly formed Sustainability Team of Phuket New Millennium Hotel.
ü The aim for today’s workshop is for the Phuket New Millennium Hotel Sustainability Team (consisAng of 4 Compass Point sub-‐teams) to come to consensus on 2 to 4 key program ideas that will be developed further into an overall sustainability strategy and program for the hotel.

How we manage information (indictors) doesn’t allow us to see things as whole systems
One of our biggest sustainability blunders….Traditional indicators such as GDP, cancer rates, and air quality measure changes in one part of a community system as if they were entirely independent of the other parts.
GDP Cancer Rates Air Quality

Pyramid Level 2: Consider Linkages
© AtKisson, Inc. Systainability Asia 2014 / www.systainabilityasia.com
What are systems?
Systems are … … groups of discrete elements that work together to make a whole.
Systems are bound together by the laws of cause and effect, and governed by flows of informaAon, energy and materials.
Note: People give defini6on to systems based on an idea of what should happen at a given point in 6me. Thus, systems have a purpose or func6on.

IdenAfying your Leverage Point
Gladstone Region
Leverage Points
Figure out how trends, decision-making, and information flows are linked together in multiple cause-effect relationships
Use that analysis to identify the best leverage points for introducing change

Finding the Leverage Points for system intervenAon
Leverage points are places in your system map where you can intervene with an projects, program, technology, policy, etc. that will change the system relationships towards the direction that you want and be reflected in your main Indicator.
© AtKisson, Inc. Systainability Asia 2014 / www.systainabilityasia.com
How do you find a good leverage point?
1. Look for dense webs of connection
2. Look for loops
3. Keep asking, “Okay, but how do we change that?”
4. If you find reasons you need to add to your system map … that’s good!

Why this issue important for Phuket’s Sustainability?
Tourism is one of two mainstays of the Phuket economy, and almost all tourists come to Phuket for its famous white sand beaches and clean, aqua blue marine waters. These natural treasures are directly influenced by coastal development planning, pollution, construction, zoning law enforcement, business licensing, density of vendors, and litter management, to name but a few. If Phuket’s beaches are consumed by litter, extensions of restaurants and bungalows, lounge chairs and umbrellas, vendors and jet skis, the accumulative effect will soon overwhelm nature’s resilience mechanisms. It will not be too long before Phuket will lose the very attributes that its success has been built upon. Not to say that tourism will stop, but most likely the outdoor activity and nature related tourism will be replaced by another type of tourism that we all do not want.
What is the Trend?
The Phuket Marine Biological Center has implemented a coastal environment monitoring program for 23 stations along the coastline of Phuket. Some principal parameters collected for every 2 months include salinity, temperature, pH, dissolve oxygen, suspended sediment, nutrients and total coliform bacteria. The result found that Marine water quality was generally found in good condition, except in some stations and during certain period of time that the quality was in fair or poor conditions.
Possible Sources of Data
Department of Marine and Coastal Resources: Phuket Marine Biological Center, Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment: Pollution Control Department
Nature�Aspect�1� Coastal�Management�/�Sustainable�Beach�Program��
The Challenge: Phuket’s coastal marine environment, particularly its famous beaches and water quality are in a state of degradation and decline.
Our Goal:
Phuket’s coastal environment enjoys continuous excellent water quality, with clean beaches that exhibit a natural condition to a large extent.
Proposed Strategy:
Empower and enable community volunteer groups to take ownership and responsibility for beach conditions and water quality monitoring, and education for fishing fleet on waste proper management.
Sustainability Indicators:
� Marine Water Quality Index (BOD, PH, Fecal Coliform)
� Beach Quality Index (5 star system)
