Sustainability has firmly moved to the core of corporate strategy for large organizations in the Benelux. At the same time, translating ambition into execution remains challenging, particularly within international supply chains. This is shown by the first Sustainability Action Barometer 2026 (SAB) by Nyenrode Business University and Tata Consultancy Services.

Organizations that strive for innovation, adaptability, and growth cannot do without rebels in their ranks. Rebels have the courage to swim against the current and are therefore able to break through stagnation. Nyenrode professor Bas Kodden’s advice is clear: cherish and facilitate the good rebels in your organization.
