Sustainability for growing businesses - strategy, impact & a partner for the long term

FOR BIGGER BUSINESSES WITH 50+ EMPLOYEES

When a business reaches a certain size, the question of impact becomes impossible to ignore.

You have more people, more processes, more supply chain relationships, and more stakeholders. With that comes both greater responsibility and greater opportunity.

Sustainability for growing businesses is not simply about doing the right thing. It is about building an organisation that is resilient, trusted, and ready for the future. One where your values are embedded in how you operate.

The challenge for growing businesses

Sustainability for companies at your size comes with a particular set of challenges that are different from those facing a small team or a start-up.

When a business grows, so does its complexity. More employees means more people to bring on the journey, more diverse roles and responsibilities, and a greater need for consistent communication and culture. More processes mean more opportunities for impact, and more places where standards can slip. More supply chain relationships mean more variables to manage and more expectations to meet.

At the same time, the commercial pressures do not ease. Responsible business practices need to be integrated into how you operate rather than being treated as a separate work stream that competes for attention alongside everything else.

And then there is the external landscape. Customer expectations are rising. Procurement teams are asking harder questions. Investors are applying greater ESG scrutiny. The businesses that will thrive in the years ahead are those that have taken sustainability seriously as a genuine strategic commitment.

This is the challenge we help growing businesses navigate every day.

Why choose Planet & Purpose - our approach for growing businesses

We work with a small number of businesses at a time. That is a deliberate choice, because the kind of support that makes a real difference to a growing business cannot be delivered at scale. It requires genuine knowledge of your organisation, your people, your challenges, and your goals.

Laura Slack is an experienced B Corp consultant with deep knowledge of the B Corp framework, including the updated V2 standards. and several years of experience guiding businesses through certification and beyond. She brings analytical rigour, practical expertise, and a long-term perspective to every client relationship.

We will never hand you a checklist and step back. We work alongside you, helping to embed sustainable business support into how your organisation thinks and operates, engaging your leadership team, and ensuring that your impact ambitions translate into measurable, verifiable outcomes.

✦ “What stood out most was Laura’s “can-do” attitude. She has a brilliant ability to take something complex and break it down into simple, manageable steps. She takes the time to delve into each area of the business, ensuring nothing is missed.”✦

Thinking beyond certification: the legacy of a purpose-driven business

For many of the business leaders we work with, the question underneath the question is not really about certification. It is about legacy.

What kind of organisation do you want to be known for building? What will your business stand for, not just in its financial performance, but in the lives it has improved, the communities it has supported, and the environment it has helped to protect? What decisions are you making today that will define the kind of company you leave behind?

B Corp certification and impact strategy are powerful tools for answering those questions with action rather than aspiration. They provide a framework, a standard, and a verified record of your commitment. But the real value lies in what happens inside the business as a result, through the culture that forms, the leadership that develops, and the team that begins to understand that the work they do every day is part of something meaningful.

That is the kind of business Planet & Purpose exists to help you build.
