Transformational Transparency in Supply Chains: Leveraging Technology to Drive Radical Change
许多公司通过透明度举措改善供应链的社会与环境影响，但常被批评为表面文章。本文提出变革性透明度模型，强调技术投资、利益相关者赋权与道德领导力，以推动公司、供应链乃至行业的根本性变革。
Many companies are implementing transparency initiatives to improve environmental and social impacts throughout their supply chains. Meaningful change, however, is elusive, and transparency efforts are often criticized as legitimizing mechanisms or “window-dressing.” This article introduces a model of transformational transparency that enables new insights to drive radical change in companies and supply chains, as well as in industries and society at large. The model highlights the need for technological investments grounded in improving data, empowering stakeholders, and applying moral leadership. It presents examples that demonstrate how the model allows companies to foster dramatic improvements in social and environmental impacts.
