Understanding the meaning of “going green” or green process management has important significance in today’s business world. While many know it’s an important concept, most don’t understand what it really means and how crucial it is to staying relevant in the marketplace.

In today’s fast-paced world, it is easy to get lost in the shuffle of “How can we help the world?” syndrome. If you add our pandemic to the mix, you now have, “How can we help the world and save our business from the economic ravages of COVID?” The answer is simple: Change your business to a business that’s “going green,” but the change will be that of your mindset. In other words, you need to be dedicated to the cause. If you are dedicated to the cause, you will be able to sustain it and be successful.

So what does the phrase “going green” mean to your business? It depends what industry your business is in. For example, IKEA’s idea of “going green” means that it plans to use only recyclable materials in all of its products by the year 2030. This will surely reduce the amount of impact on the environment. IKEA will invest $220 million on green energy, and as they said, to make climate a positive goal.

Obviously this cannot be done overnight, but the incremental development will have an overall impact on our environment and ultimately make an easier sustainable future. This will save IKEA by guaranteeing a sustainable future, both in the environment and within the company.
