Purposeful luxury: The strategic playbook for sustainability in luxury industries
If by 2040-2045 the Earth’s climate continues to deteriorate at today’s rate, luxury businesses will be the first to lose their social license to operate – as society becomes hostile towards conspicuous consumption and satisfying basic human needs becomes a priority.
And yet few luxury brands executives have taken this challenge as seriously as they should.
In Purposeful Luxury, Stéphane J.G. Girod – an expert in luxury brand strategy and sustainable business transformation – draws on a decade advising the likes of CHANEL, Richemont and Audemars Piguet to offer a rigorous and practical roadmap for meaningful change.
This book argues for positive-impact sustainability as a strategic opportunity to strengthen the future-readiness of luxury brands, leveraging purpose for long-term viability. It brings together quantitative and qualitative research to offer practical frameworks and tools for the transformation required to turn planetary and societal risks into opportunity.
