Corporate leaders are facing mounting pressure to reduce costs. BCG’s proven framework can deliver cost reduction that improves operations and is sustainable over time. According to BCG’s Namit Puri: “Accelerated margin advantage is not about enhancing a few points of profitability. It is about creating “fuel” for breakout growth, investing in new strategic frontiers, and creating competitive advantage. Today's ever-changing economic and geopolitical landscape means that companies are faced with unexpected turbulence. The BCG toolkit offers not just a significant one-time impact but also creates muscle for sustained results as the surrounding landscape inevitably evolves.” Learn more about BCG’s four principles for cost excellence: https://on.bcg.com/4bBdUjQ

At last week's Breakthrough Energy Summit, BCG's Sonya Hoo sat down with Jason Trusley, SVP and Chief Strategy Officer at Land O'Lakes, Inc.', to discuss sustainability in the food and agriculture industries. It's not enough to have a sustainability strategy. Food and agriculture industries must focus on creating value by demonstrating the economic and financial benefits for farmers, companies, and governments. Investing in sustainability doesn't mean higher consumer prices. The challenge is funding the transition to regenerative agriculture without causing inflation, requiring industry-wide collaboration. Driving practice changes at the farm level is essential for a sustainable future. Learn more about BCG's work in agribusiness industry: https://lnkd.in/eDXut4wT
