You can start by implementing the high-impact, low-effort actions, and progress to weighing up the changes that will require investment (will the effort pay back?). Then you can start tying technology strategy, architecture principles and policies back to your corporate sustainability goals (where these exist). If Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) isn’t a priority at an organisation-wide level (increasingly rare but not unheard of), look for other areas such as cost savings, marketing, customer and employee retention as drivers and levers for change. -[sustainable-framework-v05.PNG](/uploads/sustainable-framework-v05.PNG) +![sustainable-framework-v05.PNG](/uploads/sustainable-framework-v05.PNG) In other articles, we will talk about practical actions and decisions you can make, such as:
