Sustainability is often discussed in terms of profits, carbon footprints, and compliance metrics. Yet, at its core, sustainability is about people. The social aspect of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) frameworks and the people dimension of the Triple Bottom Line, remains the most decisive factor in determining whether organizations endure uncertainty, crises and change. For companies, organizations and state corporations alike, people are not just stakeholders; they are the system itself. Employees, customers, suppliers, communities, regulators and shareholders form an interconnected web where trust, once broken, creates ripple effects that can outlast any financial loss.
