ALIGNING PROFIT WITH SOCIAL IMPACT

Prashant A. Bhonsle

Founder Kuhoo Edufintech

In the past four decades, the corporate landscape has undergone a profound transformation. The once-dominant belief that a company's sole purpose is to maximize shareholder value is rapidly becoming obsolete. We now find ourselves at the dawn of a new era – one where purpose and profit are no longer viewed as mutually exclusive, but as deeply interconnected elements of business success.

This paradigm shift is particularly evident in India, a nation grappling with complex socio-economic challenges while simultaneously emerging as a global economic powerhouse. As of 2024, India stands as one of the world's largest economies by nominal GDP, yet it continues to face significant hurdles in areas such as poverty alleviation, education, and healthcare. This dichotomy presents both a challenge and an opportunity for purpose-driven leadership.

The Confluence of Business Goals and Social Good

The concept of purpose-driven leadership, while not new, has gained unprecedented urgency. A recent report by Deloitte revealed that around 80 percent of CEOs feel driven by employees, customers, and boards to improve human sustainability. This includes creating value for people, enhancing their well-being, and fostering a sense of purpose and belonging. This statistic alone underscores the growing recognition that businesses must look beyond their balance sheets to create lasting value.

But what does it mean to be a purpose-driven leader in today's complex business landscape? At its core, it is about recognizing that a company's success is inextricably linked to the well-being of its stakeholders—employees, customers, communities, and the environment. It is about understanding that profit and purpose are not opposing forces, but rather two sides of the same coin.
