Governance

There were no major changes to our governance in 21/22 and we’ll continue to maintain our current governance and ownership set up

"The shift to prioritising people and planet alongside profits was prompted by a little something called stakeholder governance"

"Up until recently, all most businesses cared about was maximising profits and value for shareholders without considering the broader impact of your business. The shift to prioritising people and planet alongside profits was prompted by a little something called ‘stakeholder governance’ – a model that puts all stakeholders (not shareholders) and purpose at the centre of business and delivers increasing value and sustainability over time." - B Lab ANZ

There were no major changes to our governance in 21/22 and we’ll continue to maintain our current governance and ownership set up, including our commitment to B Corp and purpose which are both baked into our constitution. (Shared in last year's impact report)
