Sustainability
There is now no debate that organisations need to be sustainable. It's not some abstract ideology that sits on fringes, it is accepted as best practice and it is becoming business as usual.
Typically, sustainability refers to managing an organisation's impact on the external environment and society and the market has boomed with energy efficiency specialists, carbon management experts, recycling and waste auditors and social philanthropists.
What is missing is an understanding of what needs to happen internally for organisations to become sustainable. We believe that without the right internal culture and leadership, it is impossible to be truly sustainable.
It is Concordia's Vision to become a leader in the development of leadership and people-centric workplace cultures.
Our products and services assist in creating durable workplace cultures that exemplify an organisation's commitment to its people, their attitudes to their work and their impact on the wider environment.
"We understand that successful leadership for sustainability requires a new understanding of how organisations operate and act. It requires a deeper understanding of how to value people and the environment. Its about challenging hidden assumptions, creating more effective ways of listening and engaging, building empowerment and continuous learning and operating with transparency, integrity and vision".

We also intend to meet the challenges of environmental sustainability though our own actions. We don't have large environmental or social impacts, but believe in walking the talk and know that every action we take makes a difference.
Here is how we are doing our bit, we:
- Recycle 90% of all paper and all computer ink cartridges
- 80% of us commute to work by walking or motor scooter
- Recycle 100% of glass and plastic used in the office
- Switch off all lights as we leave
- Double-side reports and documents
