Sustaining Success : with special guest Dr. Gulen Hashmi

🎙️ Had a fantastic time listening to the latest episode of Sustaining Success: A Sustainability World Cup Podcast, featuring Dr. Gulen Hashmi, Lecturer in Responsible Business Management at Glasgow Caledonian University. The conversation was packed with actionable insights on sustainable business value creation and the essential role of mindset in embedding sustainability within organizations.

🔑 Here are my top 3 takeaways:

Sustainable Value Is More Than Profit: True sustainable business value requires both economic and societal impact. As Dr. Hashmi shared, “It used to be only the economic concern in the past… now we need to also take into account the environment and the society while we are trying to create economic value.”

Mindset & Values Drive Sustainable Action: The journey starts with instilling a sustainability-driven mindset in both students and faculty. “They cannot implement sustainable practices unless they believe in it and discover their own value systems,” emphasized Dr. Hashmi.

Simulations Make Learning Stick: Games and simulations like ‘Sustain to Win’ are essential for helping learners understand the interconnectedness of sustainability decisions—and for making the subject engaging and memorable. “Simulations are so helpful… They also help students work in groups and develop collaborative skills, which are much needed in the sustainability domain.”

If you're interested in practical strategies to embed sustainability in your business or educational programs, this episode is a must-listen. Dr. Hashmi’s passion for developing the next generation of sustainable leaders really shines through!
