Implement digital transformation that builds resilience, delivers sustainable value and stands up to global disruption.
Digital Sustainability is a strategic guide for senior leaders, policymakers and consultants who need to align advanced technologies with long-term resilience, responsible governance and enduring performance. Written by Catherine Mulligan and Shivam Kishore, the book positions digital transformation as a lever for sustainability, not just efficiency or growth. In a world shaped by climate shocks, geopolitical instability and accelerating technological change, leaders must balance profitability, stakeholder expectations and urgent environmental and social responsibilities.
While AI, IoT and blockchain are reshaping industries, many organizations remain unprepared to govern these technologies in ways that create durable value and avoid unintended harm. Digital Sustainability addresses this gap with practical, scalable frameworks that help leaders operationalize transformation across strategy, culture, operations and policy, ensuring technology remains in service of people, the planet and long-term organizational value.
You will learn how to:
· Build organizational resilience across strategy, culture and operations
· Apply AI, IoT and blockchain for sustainable, measurable impact
· Govern digital technologies responsibly at enterprise and policy level
· Integrate sustainability into core digital transformation decisions
· Balance innovation, risk and long-term value creation
With robust, ready-to-use models and real-world examples, Digital Sustainability equips senior decision-makers to lead confidently through disruption and deliver transformation that endures.
Themes include: digital sustainability, organizational resilience, responsible technology, AI governance, sustainable transformation, long-term value creation
