Tien Tzuo, CEO of Zuora and a pioneer in the subscription economy, shares his journey and insights on transforming traditional business models into subscription-based ones. With over two decades of experience, starting with Salesforce, Tzuo has been at the forefront of the shift towards recurring revenue models, advocating for their application beyond software to various industries. His company, Zuora, provides technology that assists businesses in adopting subscription models, catering to a wide range of clients from tech giants like Salesforce and Zoom to traditional companies like General Motors and The New York Times. In 2018, Tzuo authored the book “Subscribed” to distill the lessons learned from diverse customer experiences, positioning himself as a leading voice in the subscription economy.Tzuo discusses the challenges and opportunities presented by the subscription model, particularly in professional services like legal and accounting. He recounts his experience with Deloitte Australia, which transitioned to a subscription model for its accounting services, offering a fixed monthly fee for basic services and charging separately for additional expertise. This approach not only transformed the client-provider dynamic by eliminating the disincentive to use services but also led to a more efficient, higher-margin business for Deloitte. Tzuo advocates for more flexibility in professional services, suggesting that subscription models can enhance client relationships and service value.__________________________Learn about Zuora and subscribe to Subscribed.Check out my new show, the Law for Kids Podcast.Get Connected with SixFifty, a business and employment legal document automation tool.Sign up for Gavel using the code LAWSUBSCRIBED to get 10% off an annual subscription.Visit Law Subscribed to subscribe to the Substack newsletter to get notified about every episode, listen from your web browser, and for additional content.Follow @lawsubscribed everywhere.Sign up for the Subscription Seminar waitlist at subscriptionseminar.com.Check out Mathew Kerbis' law firm Subscription Attorney LLC.

The international armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine has revealed a knowledge gap across the global financial sector regarding exposure to armed conflict, reiterating an already pressing need to deepen corporate understanding of international humanitarian law (IHL). Although there is mounting pressure on companies to conduct structured and informed heightened human rights due diligence when investing or doing business in conflict-affected contexts, more must be done to effectively embed IHL and conflict sensitivity into corporate policies and practices. In 2022, Australian Red Cross engaged Deloitte Australia to undertake a review of the extent to which the Australian financial sector incorporates IHL and conflict-related considerations in investment and operational decision-making. In this post, Australian Red Cross Legal Adviser, Fauve Kurnadi, and Australian lawyer, Adaena Sinclair-Blakemore, discuss some of the findings from this report, including risks and trends in the Australian financial sector and the growing relevance of IHL to financial institutions, as well as what certain actors like the Responsible Investment Association of Australasia are doing to address IHL knowledge and implementation gaps that exist across the sector.

On this day in history, July 17, 1862, Abraham Lincoln signed the second Confiscation Act. The act allowed for the confiscation of property of confederate sympathizers.The Confiscation Act of 1862 was a significant piece of legislation passed by the United States Congress during the American Civil War, at least rhetorically if not practically. The act aimed to target the property of Confederate sympathizers and supporters. It authorized the Union government to seize the assets, including land and slaves, of individuals engaged in rebellion against the United States. The act played a crucial role in undermining the economic and social foundations of the Confederacy by depriving it of valuable resources as it authorized not only the freeing of enslaved individuals but the prohibition on the re-enslavement of escaped individuals. It also set the stage for the eventual emancipation of slaves, as it allowed the Union to confiscate the property of slaveholders who actively supported the rebellion. However, the act's implementation varied across different regions and faced legal and practical challenges and, following Lincoln's assassination, it went entirely unenforced by his successor Andrew Johnson. A parliamentary inquiry into the PwC Australia tax leak scandal has prompted questioning of several major accounting and consulting firms. Deloitte Australia, EY Australia, and Accenture are scheduled to participate in the two-day hearing, starting Monday, prompted by PwC Australia's unauthorized sharing of confidential tax data it acquired while consulting for the government. McKinsey Australia has declined to attend, drawing criticism from Greens Senator Barbara Pocock who initiated the inquiry. Other key figures include ex-KPMG partner Brendan Lyon and former PwC Australia director Tracy Murray. PwC Australia recently disclosed its fiscal year 2022 revenue was 27% from public sector contracts and that it made A$3 billion. In the wake of the scandal, PwC sold its government advisory arm and is undergoing a review of its tax governance and internal control framework. Details about an internal investigation into the tax leak will be shared with the inquiry later this month.EY, Deloitte, Accenture Face Questions at PwC Tax Leak InquiryMeta Platforms, owner of Facebook and Instagram, is facing a daily fine of one million Norwegian crowns ($100,000) for privacy breaches, according to Norway's data protection authority, Datatilsynet. The regulator stated the fine would be implemented daily from August 4 to November 3 unless Meta takes remedial actions. The issue pertains to Meta's use of user data, such as physical location, for targeted advertising, a practice deemed illegal. Meta is planning to review Datatilsynet's decision, stating there would be no immediate impact on its services. The case has been referred to the European Data Protection Board, potentially widening the decision's influence across Europe. This follows the EU's top court ruling against Meta's user data harvesting for behavioral advertising. Despite not being an EU member, Norway is part of the European single market.Norway regulator to fine Meta over privacy breaches | ReutersRetired Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz has been ordered to pay 10% of a $122,200 sanction related to a lawsuit by Kari Lake, a failed Arizona gubernatorial candidate. The lawsuit attempted to prohibit the use of electronic voting machines in Arizona's 2022 midterm elections. Despite Dershowitz's claims of a limited role in the case, U.S. District Judge John Tuchi held that Dershowitz's signature on numerous filings was sanctionable. Judge Tuchi stressed that failing to impose sanctions might encourage similar conduct without facing consequences. The remainder of the legal team, Andrew Parker and Kurt B. Olsen, are responsible for the rest of the sanctions. The lawsuit was dismissed in August. Parker stated that they plan to appeal the ruling, while Dershowitz and his attorneys did not immediately respond to requests for comments.Alan Dershowitz ordered to pay limited sanctions in Arizona election case | ReutersMicrosoft reported that Chinese hackers obtained one of its digital keys and exploited a flaw in the company's code to steal emails from U.S. government agencies and other clients. The undisclosed means by which the hackers obtained the key was combined with a validation error in Microsoft's code to execute the cyberespionage operation. The victims included at least two U.S. government agencies: the State and Commerce Departments. The hack has strained both the cybersecurity industry and U.S.-China relations, with Beijing denying any involvement. This incident has sparked calls for Microsoft to offer its highest level of digital auditing, known as logging, free to all customers.

A proposed disposal by Murray & Roberts (M&R) of its Clough unit to Webuild was terminated on Monday and Clough and its subsidiaries placed into voluntary administration in Australia with immediate effect, together with the JSE-listed group's Australian holding company, MRPL. The announcement triggered a sharp decline in M&R's shares, which were trading about 13% lower directly following the announcement. In a surprise move, M&R announced a proposed sale and purchase agreement with Webuild, of Italy, on November 18, whereby the group's entire issued share capital in Clough Limited would be transferred to Webuild. The agreement was coupled to a proposed interim loan facility of A$30-million from Webuild to Clough, which required the urgent injection of working capital to avoid entering voluntary administration. With the expiry of the prescribed date for implementation, and with no reasonable prospect of the interim loan materialising, the parties mutually agreed on December 5 to terminate the agreement. In the absence of the interim loan, the Clough board then placed Clough and its subsidiaries under voluntary administration in Australia with immediate effect. M&R confirmed that the voluntary administration of MRPL had potential implications for RUC Cementation (RUC), which a net asset value of A$85-million (about R1-billion). RUC has not been placed into voluntary administration, with the administration of MRPL viewed as a way to mitigate the risks to RUC . “Other than the group's interest in RUC, as well as a guarantee provided to Clough USA in the amount of A$3-million (equivalent to approximately R35-million), the group has no residual exposure in Australia or to Clough and will not be affected by MRPL being placed into voluntary administration,” M&R said in a statement. The administrators appointed to MRPL and Clough were identified as Sal Algeri, Jason Tracy, Glen Kanevsky and David Orr, who are all members of the Deloitte Australia corporate rescue team. Chronux director Rowan Goeller, who tracks M&R, says there was always a risk the deal might not be concluded, which is negative as it would have allowed M&R to exit Clough with minimal financial impact. "The liabilities associated to Clough are ring-fenced to Australia so putting MRPL into business rescue insulates M&R South Africa, although RUC (part of the mining division) falls under MRPL and may form part of a business rescue process.," Goeller adds.
A proposed disposal by Murray & Roberts (M&R) of its Clough unit to Webuild was terminated on Monday and Clough and its subsidiaries placed into voluntary administration in Australia with immediate effect, together with the JSE-listed group's Australian holding company, MRPL. The announcement triggered a sharp decline in M&R's shares, which were trading about 13% lower directly following the announcement. In a surprise move, M&R announced a proposed sale and purchase agreement with Webuild, of Italy, on November 18, whereby the group's entire issued share capital in Clough Limited would be transferred to Webuild. The agreement was coupled to a proposed interim loan facility of A$30-million from Webuild to Clough, which required the urgent injection of working capital to avoid entering voluntary administration. With the expiry of the prescribed date for implementation, and with no reasonable prospect of the interim loan materialising, the parties mutually agreed on December 5 to terminate the agreement. In the absence of the interim loan, the Clough board then placed Clough and its subsidiaries under voluntary administration in Australia with immediate effect. M&R confirmed that the voluntary administration of MRPL had potential implications for RUC Cementation (RUC), which a net asset value of A$85-million (about R1-billion). RUC has not been placed into voluntary administration, with the administration of MRPL viewed as a way to mitigate the risks to RUC . “Other than the group's interest in RUC, as well as a guarantee provided to Clough USA in the amount of A$3-million (equivalent to approximately R35-million), the group has no residual exposure in Australia or to Clough and will not be affected by MRPL being placed into voluntary administration,” M&R said in a statement.

Sit down with the most interesting man in the world, Greg Newman. Greg actually was almost kidnapped by pirates, while visiting one of the 86 countries he has been to talk HR and People Analytics. Sharing his journey from an HRIS professional to his current role as Head of People Analytics at Deloitte Australia. He mentioned that he noticed how companies were spending hundreds of millions of dollars with little to no idea if it was actually effective. He saw that there were so many more important things that we aren't measuring and questions we aren't answering for the business, which drove his passion for people analytics. Typically HR metrics don't translate naturally to other business unit's priorities. Building the demand or "hunger" for evidence-based decision-making is key in order to make data come to life to arm the CHRO, CEO, and CFO with new insights that drive action. HR needs to become "data hungry" while following the money to know what the business needs. We Discuss: -Data Hunger: Raising Data Literacy and Appetite A -The Need for Qualitative and Quantitative Data-Where the Magic Happens -Storytelling with Data: Not About the Data -Translating Data to Priorities in the Business like DE&I -People Analytics Journey in Australia

The much-anticipated 26th UN Conference of the Parties – COP26 – is over, and the response to its agreement is mixed. Some say the path to net zero is inexorable; others feel that much remains to be agreed. In Australia, a dominant theme is that private enterprise and state governments are taking the lead on the path to net zero in the absence of a clear national commitment. There are other notable ‘other than government' initiatives at international level. What position will Australia and the wider world be in at the end of the decade?Today, we have two guests to discuss the aftermath of COP26. John O'Brien is Partner, Energy Transition & Decarbonisation, at Deloitte Australia. He works with clients to translate their decarbonisation/energy transition ambitions into practical business plans.

More companies around New Zealand and overseas are letting staff pick their own working hours.Deloitte Australia is the latest big player to give it a go.One staff member is making the most of it by working two hours in the morning, surfing in the lunch break and then coming back to do another six.A dairy farm in Canterbury, Align Farms started the same thing recently.Align Farms CEO Rhys Roberts told Kate Hawkesby the flexibility has attracted workers from other industries.“That dairy farm actually just employed the head trainer at f45 in Ashburton, which is obviously a whole new skill set and diversity into the team. You'd argue we wouldn't be able to employ someone of that calibre onto a dairy farm 12 months ago without that flexibility.”LISTEN ABOVE

Alon Ellis is a partner at Deloitte Monitor. He is leading Deloitte Australia’s Pricing Strategy & Margin Management capability In this episode, Alon shares how he believes it is value-based pricing but understands what value means not from your perspective but on customers’. He talks about not giving everything away to the customer as you are in the business of providing a service or a product, and you have to be profitable. Why you have to check out today’s podcast: Learn how to sell on value and what that actually means not from your point of view but from the customer’s point of view Learn how to communicate simply and straightforwardly your value and the pricing strategy that aligns with it Understand the economic analysis in every pricing decision “Make it easy. And this is the hardest thing in pricing. Let’s assume that you’re entirely on board with value-based pricing and you’re thinking about getting the consistency and all that kind of stuff. The simpler you can make your pricing without losing big valuables, the better.” – Alon Ellis Increase Your Pricing Knowledge: Become a Champions of Value INSIDER! To sign up go to insider.championsofvalue.com Topics Covered: 01:18 – How Alon’s curiosity led him to a career in Pricing 02:36 – How he went from industry to consulting to industry to consulting 06:57 – What is pricing consistency 08:58 – Having an economic analysis in every pricing decision 13:20 – Analytics versus value 15:41 – What is economic value estimation 17:23 – The difficulty when customers don’t care about the features and benefits you make 18:58 – Factors you can’t reduce to purely analytical process 20:21- How Australia and the US differ in terms of companies not understanding their product’s value 21:31 – Why salespeople need to be confident in communicating to the consumers that price is fair and reasonable 25:39 – How do the market perceive discounts 26:48 – Alon’s pricing advice that would greatly impact your business Key Takeaways: “Sometimes I get to kind of almost the extreme customer advocacy. So, everything is about us giving away stuff to the customer, or the other extreme, you know that trying to screw over the customer. And that’s never going to create a long-lasting relationship. You need them to be somewhere in the middle.” – Alon Ellis “We always need to sell on value, but we need to make certain we understand what that actually means not from our point of view but from the customer’s point of view.” – Alon Ellis “I believe it’s always value-based pricing as the number one way but they actually have to understand what value means from the customer’s point.” – Alon Ellis “There’s nothing worse than a client who’s invested lots and lots of money into features that they think should have some value. But you’ve actually done this while you figured out that no one really cares.” – Alon Ellis “This is where the psychology, the real world comes in. And that’s where, I think you can’t reduce this into a purely analytical process.” – Alon Ellis Resources / People Mentioned: LexisNexis Connect with Alon Ellis: LinkedIn Connect with Mark Stiving: Email: mark@impactpricing.com LinkedIn
This week on the Lady Leadership podcast I got to the catch up with Change and resilience expert - Ciara Lancaster. After the year that we have had it was great to catch up with Ciara and talk about how we can improve our change resilience. We talked all things change, what do for yourself, what to do for others and what do for your teams plus how can you avoid burnout and overwhelm. As a former Change Manager at Deloitte Australia (leading teams of 500+ through change), Ciara observed a common theme where brilliant leaders were becoming incredibly stretched with endless change expectations, over and above their core work. Behind closed doors, many shared vulnerabilities including worry, emotional turmoil and rumination at night. Determined to make a difference, Ciara began researching, connecting with thought leaders and neuroscientists and writing her first book 'Reimagine Change' to fill the coaching gap inside organisations and workplaces.In a world of relentless organisational change and business transformation, Ciara helps leaders with Change fatigue and burnout risks and realitiesPsychological safety and nervous system implicationsStress management and mindset for personal successConnection and collaborative risk-taking for team successIf you or your team are struggling with change then this podcast and Ciara’s book are going to point you in the right direction.

Published Aug 21, 2016 Thanks for joining us for the episode 42 Get Fact Up! Millennials are a hot demographic to target. Described as "a person reaching young adulthood around the year 2000" - finding the right way to market to this group seems to have a lot of people confused. So we're here to help! Let us break things down for you... Subscribe to our Get Fact Up series for weekly updates: https://www.memedia.com.au/get-fact-up Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/memedia Join us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/memedia Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/me_media ______________________________________________________________ MARKETING TO MILLENNIALS | GET FACT UP #42 - Good day, Australia. I'm Chris Hogan, founder and CEO of MeMedia. It's time to get fact up. Today I want to focus on who you're targeting, and millennials are hot on my demographic audience that I want to discuss today, so let's get started. When speaking to the local community about your target audience and talking about demographics, there seems to be some confusion around who are gen Y, gen X, and gen Z, and then thrown in millennials, so we want to cover off who they are. Millennials are born between the early 1980s and the year 2000 and are between 15 and 35 years of age. According to Deloitte Australia's millennial survey in 2016, the millennials are generation Y and also known as the digital generation. And according to Roy Morgan Research here in Australia, millennials make up around 4.9 million Australians. Gen X make up 4.8 and baby boomers 4.1 million. In that same report from Roy Morgan Research, it goes on to explain that the title millennials, really all it describes is their age and that all millennials aren't created equal. But throwing back to the study from Deloitte Australia on the millennial survey 2016, they describe millennials as the values generation. While this study focuses heavily on employment of millennials, it also tells us a lot about how this generation functions in everyday life. Millennials want business to shift its purpose. While they continue to express a positive view of business's rule in society and have softened their negative perceptions of business motivation and ethics compared to prior services, millennials still want businesses to focus more on people, employees, customers, and society, products and purpose and less on profits. So what does this tell us about how millennials choose brands? Essentially, we need to have a purpose beyond profit, and we need to clearly articulate why our business exists. So how are you going to express all this in your marketing? Let's have a look. As we said before, millennials are the digital generation, and of course that means they're using their smart phones to communicate via Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, LinkedIn, and YouTube. If we dive in and have a quick look at the stats from Facebook, there are 5.8 million millennials on their platform and 2.2 million on Instagram. Snapchat's consumer research source tells us that on any given day Snapchat reaches 41% of all 18 to 34 year olds in the United States, and a Business Insider article earlier this year recorded that there were just over three million Australians on Snapchat in February. If we jump over to the business focus social media platform LinkedIn, we can see that there's 1.5 million millennials using this platform, but all of these statistics on how you're gonna reach your target audience mean nothing unless you've defined your brand's purpose and can communicate that via storytelling or through useful content that is gonna bring a change to the world, which brings us back to why content marketing is the best type of marketing that you need to be focusing on, and YouTube is definitely a great place to do this. In 2014, Google partnered with TNS and Ogilvy to answer our burning question about what brand advertisers can do to connect with these new consumers. The study revealed that consumers choose the brands that engage them on their passions and interest 42% more often than they do those that simple urge them to buy the product being advertised. As a result, their path to purchase is actually their path to purpose. In the same study, it was revealed that consumers are 70% more likely to purchase something with a brand which engages people on their purpose and their passions. YouTube analyzed that users 18 to 34 years old are four times more interested in watching a video ad on YouTube than in viewing any other platform. But to be clear, we don't all need to look and act just like Gandhi to make sure we attract the right type of consumer. Be the change you want to see in the world. It's clear from that last bit of research that content marketing via video and uploading to YouTube could be a perfect strategy for everybody, but it's not just video that is working out there in the marketplace. Look at infographics and photographic-heavy blogs. Absolutely get visual. So instead of me telling you that you have to go and produce this amazing content right now, I want you to come back to some of this absolute grassroots preparation that I think everybody needs to do before entering into a content marketing campaign. Number one is define and document your core values, your purpose, and your why. Number two, understand why your existing customers do business with you and how this relates to your values. Number three, discover what secrets you hold in your head or your company that could truly make your industry a better place to work with if they were shared openly for the uninitiated to learn from. And, number four, what valuable lessons can your clients teach the world and how did you work with them to make their business a success? While going through this process, you'll begin to structure your business in a way that focuses less on your profits and more about the change that you bring to the world. And on that super positive note, I just want to say thank you to all of you who have been listening to get fact up, and we hope we've been bringing value to your work life. And if you need help with producing any of that content for your marketing, you know we're here to help. Hey, we make pretty good videos I hear, and we just so happen to be a Google partner as well. So keep making a difference, Australia. We'll see you next week

He gives us an in-depth insight into the tight connection and bond developed in the armed forces; the challenges veterans have when transitioning back into society; leadership being driven by context; the purpose of the Invictus Games; the healing power of sport; and how he leads an active CEO lifestyle. Background Patrick Kidd OBE is a highly experienced, meticulous and humble leader who has successfully transitioned from serving in the Armed Services to becoming an impressive CEO on debut. He has a lifelong love of learning and professional development with a Masters of Arts at the Cranfield School of Management, MBA at the Open University, Diploma inSecurity Services at Deakin University and completed the Australian Institute of Company Directors, Company Directors Course. He served in the British Army for 20 years and the Australian Defence Force for 10 years before transitioning into a principal consultant role at Deloitte Australia in 2015. His impressive leadership has been recognised, with a Queen's Commendation in 2000 and an OBE in 2005. Joining Deloitte Australia in 2015, he focused on strategy and operations consulting to Defence and the Defence Industry. He led the Deloitte team responsible for the Invictus Games Sydney pro-bono effort, which resulted in being appointed as the CEO of the 2018 Invictus Games Sydney. Patrick talks about: Bringing together an amazing collection of people who come together because they are trying to make a difference for the good.Creating that atmosphere when things go wrong, the team will come around and support them.The act of planning is everythingBalancing leading the team and the individual.Understanding what it is that you are trying to do and why you are trying to do it.A time when he made a mistake when leading in the Armed Services and the strategies he employed to resurrect the situation.Respecting the world in which you live and the people that you are dealing with.Failing to back his Deputy while in Iraq.The biggest challenges he faced when transitioning from the Armed Services into his role at Deloitte Australia.Former Wallaby Australian Rugby Captain, Stephen Moore, being the catalyst to Australia commencing its bid, in 2014, for theSydney Invictus Games.The Invictus games giving a greater purpose to the staff of Deloitte Australia.Why the Invictus Games is so important to those who have served and the families who have supported them.

How comfortable are you in saying sorry? We naturally value our ego more than our relationships and therefore it takes strength and courage to be able to say 'I'm sorry'. Emotional intelligence helps you to comprehend that by saying sorry you demonstrate humility and by apologising it doesn't always mean that you are wrong. Humility is an important quality that improves relationships and naturally draws others to you. Tweets

In this episode we chat with Tharani Jegatheeswaran who leads Deloitte Australia’s Social Impact Consulting Practise. So, if you’ve been listening for a while, you know that I am super passionate about business and impact, in particular seeing the two come together in ways that just make sense. Both for the business in terms of focusing on the core competencies of the business and leveraging that for impact. This is something that is really hard to balance and can often miss the mark with large corporations either taking part in activities that are so far removed from their strengths or it looking like the act of trying to create impact is just for marketing or publicity purposes. So, when I stumbled upon Deloitte and their social impact consulting practice I was extremely intrigued. Why does a Big Four accounting firm like Deloitte do social impact consulting? Is this for CSR purposes? is this for publicity because being involved in impact is ‘cool’? Are there business reasons behind this decision and if so, what were they? Do they charge clients for the consulting they do or is this pro bono? Enter, Tharani. Tharani leads Deloitte Australia’s Social Impact Consulting practice, a dedicated practice that works at the intersection of the not-for-profit (NFP) sector, government and business to deliver better outcomes for Australia’s vulnerable communities. Recognising that complex social issues cannot be addressed by any sector in isolation, Deloitte’s Social Impact Consulting practice focuses on being a convenor - facilitating greater cross-sectoral collaboration across the NFP, government and business sectors to design solutions that deliver systemic change and greater social impact. Anyway let’s hear more about Deloitte’s work in this area and let Tharani take it from here. And if you like this episode or know someone that will, please give it a share. Find Tharani on LinkedIn or Twitter and check out Deloitte social impact consulting website. SHOW NOTES “People think that non-profit or anything focussed on social impact has to be philanthropy, and it doesn’t” – [07:01] How does the business model work for Deloitte’s social impact consultancy? [07:01] What kind of challenges does a typical client come to Deloitte with? [09:40] What does the team look like in the business? [14:56] Tharani pitches the social impact consultancy to Deloitte [15:30] “Life is shades of grey and so can be your career” [16:30] How does Deloitte measure impact? [18:00] Tharani shares challenges she faced building a startup practice in a mature firm [19:40] “It’s not always glamourous” [21:44] “You need to be really clear about your ‘why’. Really understand the change you want to make. If it is within a large corporate, really understand the business case and the business benefits of the change that you’re trying to effect. And measure that in its holistic sense, not just in financial – but that’s really important if you’re going to do it in a for-profit, for-purpose sense, but also the other measures of success.” [22:20] “Make an impact in the market, and it will speak for itself internally.” [23:20] What does the future look like for social impact consulting? [24:00] “I would really hope that leaders across government, business and the social sector feel like they all have a role to play in tackling social issues, and that would really be a measure of success, that it’s not just the responsibility of the not-for-profit sector but more businesses are engaged in addressing some of the complex challenges of our time.” [25:00] “I think it would have been very easy to give up in those early stages if I wasn’t clear on my why.” – Tharani shares how she made the switch in her career. [27:40] Where does Tharani see things going for Deloitte’s social impact consulting? Moving past CSR and corporate volunteering days, to shared value. [28:00] “If I could prove we could achieve profit with purpose within Deloitte, then we would have the credibility to advise other corporates on how to achieve profit with purpose in a way that aligns with their core business. Now that we’ve done it, we have a much stronger case to work with other businesses. Whereas if we weren’t able to put our money where our mouth is, and try and prove it ourselves, it’s hard to advise with credibility to other businesses.” [30:58] Three Things [31:38] WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE QUOTE OR LESSON FROM THIS EPISODE?
