No safe haven: Why business leaders must act now to address Earth’s polycrisis

No safe haven: Why business leaders must act now to address Earth’s polycrisis As hurricanes devastate former climate havens, learn why business leaders must embrace Sustainable Strategic Management to address Earth’s polycrisis before it’s too late. In October 2024, Hurricane Helene devastated Buncombe County, North Carolina, claiming over 70 lives in what was once considered a climate haven. Asheville, nestled in the temperate Blue Ridge Mountains and far from coastal storm surges, had represented hope – a refuge from climate chaos. Now, its valleys lie ravaged by unprecedented floods where many residents have lost their homes and livelihoods.

Abstract

No safe haven: Why business leaders must act now to address Earth’s polycrisis As hurricanes devastate former climate havens, learn why business leaders must embrace Sustainable Strategic Management to address Earth’s polycrisis before it’s too late. In October 2024, Hurricane Helene devastated Buncombe County, North Carolina, claiming over 70 lives in what was once considered a climate haven. Asheville, nestled in the temperate Blue Ridge Mountains and far from coastal storm surges, had represented hope – a refuge from climate chaos. Now, its valleys lie ravaged by unprecedented floods where many residents have lost their homes and livelihoods.
