Corporate leaders are facing mounting pressure to reduce costs. BCG’s proven framework can deliver cost reduction that improves operations and is sustainable over time. According to BCG’s Namit Puri: “Accelerated margin advantage is not about enhancing a few points of profitability. It is about creating “fuel” for breakout growth, investing in new strategic frontiers, and creating competitive advantage. Today's ever-changing economic and geopolitical landscape means that companies are faced with unexpected turbulence. The BCG toolkit offers not just a significant one-time impact but also creates muscle for sustained results as the surrounding landscape inevitably evolves.” Learn more about BCG’s four principles for cost excellence: https://on.bcg.com/4bBdUjQ

Our global analysis shows that only 1 in 4 transformations deliver value-creating, enduring change. A 75% failure rate is sobering for any CEO mulling a transformation path. When change fails to deliver short- and long-term value for a company, it can land a CEO in the unenviable position of having led a failed transformation. We highlight five truths that CEOs can embrace to improve their chances of leading a successful transformation, as well as a common lie they should never tell themselves.

At last week's Breakthrough Energy Summit, BCG's Sonya Hoo sat down with Jason Trusley, SVP and Chief Strategy Officer at Land O'Lakes, Inc.', to discuss sustainability in the food and agriculture industries. It's not enough to have a sustainability strategy. Food and agriculture industries must focus on creating value by demonstrating the economic and financial benefits for farmers, companies, and governments. Investing in sustainability doesn't mean higher consumer prices. The challenge is funding the transition to regenerative agriculture without causing inflation, requiring industry-wide collaboration. Driving practice changes at the farm level is essential for a sustainable future. Learn more about BCG's work in agribusiness industry: https://lnkd.in/eDXut4wT

BCG has developed a comprehensive approach to help companies identify and quantify opportunities to reduce nonpersonnel costs, select targets and improvement measures, and sustain their gains. According to BCG’s Jacopo Piccolo Brunelli: “Nearly a decade after its release, ‘Uncovering Cost Drivers to Achieve Sustained Improvements’ remains an essential resource for reducing nonpersonnel SG&A costs – an opportunity for cost improvement that remains untapped by many companies. Our recent research shows that sustainable cost management is a top priority for CEOs. Streamlining SG&A can be a quick route to sustainably reduce costs. Measures typically require minimal investment and are relatively easy to implement – and can be more readily accepted within organizations as they avoid cuts to core business activities. The workforce can remain intact while the business reaps cost savings, making strategic cuts to streamline operations without stalling the momentum of business growth.” Learn more about BCG’s four principles for cost excellence: https://on.bcg.com/4eLCNfy
