The New P&L - Principles and Leadership in Business

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are both ambitious and necessary, and the global business community has both the power and the responsibility to drive cohesive commitment and action on these goals.

This week, The New P&L speaks to Founder and CEO of VATI of Sweden, Eva Vati. As one of the first consultancies in the world to offer businesses a certified methodology for integrating sustainability and the UN’s SDGs, VATI of Sweden helps executives and entrepreneurs align their commercial strategies with the UN’s SDGs, helping to future-proof their companies in the process. We discuss with Eva the critical role and responsibility businesses have in ensuring the SDGs are met, as well as the kind of leadership that is required to ensure the implementation of SDGs in a business has a positive commercial impact and sets it up for a future full of opportunity.

The New P&L speaks to Criminologist, AI ethicist & Founder of Urban AI, Renée Cummings

The impact of AI on all aspects of our life is far-reaching. AI has incredible potential, and when and designed and developed with ethical principles underpinning it, AI can have a transformational effect on communities and businesses in many ways. But AI is not without bias – it can often carry with it the subjective assumptions and judgements of those developing it or built on data that reinforces some of the structural inequalities that exist in our businesses and our societies.

This week, The New P&L speaks to eminent criminologist, criminal psychologist, AI ethicist and data activist, Renée Cummings. Renée specialises in diverse, equitable and inclusive AI design, development and deployment; principled, responsible and trustworthy AI strategy and ethical AI policy development and governance, as well as AI risk management and crisis communications. We discuss with Renée the challenges around bias in AI and how these can be overcome, as well as regulation of this sector; what a more ethical future for AI looks like and what type of leaders we need in business to get us there.
