THE DUAL CHALLENGES OF DEVELOPMENT
Social
Development
Economic
Development
• In both economic and business development our understanding of success has been incomplete
• There is a powerful connection between economic and social development, both positive and negative
• Separating business and competitiveness from social progress and societal issues is a serious mistake

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPENDS ON COMPETITIVENESS
A nation (or state) is competitive to the extent that firms operating there are able
to compete successfully in the regional and global economy while supporting
high and rising wages and living standards for the average citizen
•
Competitiveness depends on the long-run productivity of a location as a
place to do business
- Productivity of existing firms and workers
- Ability to achieve high participation of working age citizens in the
workforce
•
Competitiveness is not:
- Low wages
- A weak currency
- Jobs per se

#socialprogress
WHAT DETERMINES COMPETITIVENESS?
Endowments
• Endowments, including natural resources, geographical location, population, and country
size, create a foundation for prosperity, but true prosperity arises from productivity in the
use of endowments
Social Progress Imperative
#socialprogress
WHAT DETERMINES COMPETITIVENESS?
Macroeconomic Competitiveness
Endowments
• Macroeconomic competitiveness sets the economy-wide context for productivity to emerge, but
is not sufficient to ensure productivity
• Endowments, including natural resources, geographical location, population, and country
size, create a foundation for prosperity, but true prosperity arises from productivity in the use
of endowments

MEASURING NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
•
There has been a growing recognition of the need to go
beyond GDP in measuring a nation’s performance
•
A series of indexes have been introduced to do so:
- Human Development Index
- Millennium Development Indicators
- Happy Planet Index
- OECD Better Life Indicators
- Legatum Prosperity Index

#socialprogress
SOCIAL PROGRESS INDEX: DESIGN PRINCIPLES
• Separate from economic indicators
• Holistic framework
• Outcomes rather than inputs
• Relevant to all countries

WHAT IS SOCIAL PROGRESS?
Social progress is the capacity of a society to
meet the basic human needs of its citizens,
establish the building blocks that allow citizens
and communities to enhance and sustain the
quality of their lives, and create the conditions
for all individuals to reach their full potential.

THE SOCIAL PROGRESS INDEX: KEY FINDINGS
• Economic development is necessary but not sufficient as a
measure of national performance
• Some approaches to economic development are less effective
than others in advancing social progress, and even
counterproductive
• Just as economic development helps social progress, social
progress can enable sustainable economic development
• The amount of government spending (as a percent GDP) is an
incomplete explanation for social progress performance

THE SOCIAL PROGRESS IMPERATIVE: DRIVING TO ACTION
The Social Progress Imperative is not just an Index, but a
global effort designed to catalyze action at the country
level. It aims to form and support National Committees of
leaders and stakeholders in each country, and work jointly
with them to mobilize policy changes and private sector
initiatives.
Social Progress Imperative
36
#socialprogress
THE ROLE OF THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE
•
Interpret and disseminate country level priorities for social
progress improvement
•
Pursue policy changes in priority areas for social progress,
through cross-sector collaboration
•
Foster improvements in local data collection and relevant
research

THE ROLE OF BUSINESS IN SOCIETY
•
Only business can create wealth and prosperity
•
Business is facing growing scrutiny as the cause or a
contributor to many of today’s societal challenges
•
Corporate social responsibility efforts are greater than ever,
but the legitimacy of business has fallen
•
Government and NGO’s alone lack sufficient resources
and capabilities to fully meet social challenges
We need a new approach

CREATING SHARED VALUE IN PRODUCTS AND MARKETS
JAIN IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
• Drip irrigation equipment for small farmers in Africa and India
• Serves more than 4 million farmers worldwide as of 2012
• Reduces water use by over 40%
• Enables higher crop yields that improve food security while
raising farmers’ income
• Jain is now a $820 million company that is rapidly growing

SHARED VALUE IN THE VALUE CHAIN
FIBRIA, BRAZIL
•
Fibria, a large manufacturer of pulp for paper, utilizes planted eucalyptus
trees rather than native and old growth forests
•
The company supports and encourages small-scale producers near its mills
to plant eucalyptus in conjunction with other crops, assisting them with
technical training and inputs
•
Fibria achieves far greater resource efficiency versus old growth forest
production, with eucalyptus yielding 30 times higher yield per acre of wood
pulp
•
Small scale producers contribute 27% of the raw material volume utilized in
Fibria mills, improving efficiency
•
4000 households have significantly increased their income

PARTNERING FOR SHARED VALUE
NGOs
•
•

Seek donations
•
Partner with business to implement

Government
•
•
Regulate how businesses
operate
Operate social programs
•
Tax businesses
Foundations
•
Donate to charitable causes
Competitors
•
“Brand” social initiatives
Social Progress Imperative
• Regulate to encourage market
solutions
• Partner to deliver shared value
solutions to social services
• Jumpstart market solutions through
minimum purchases or subsidies
• Invest in infrastructure to enable
shared value approaches (e.g. roads,
skills)
• Invest with companies, NGOs and
government to enable shared value
solutions
• Partner on business environment

REDEFINING CORPORATE PURPOSE
DANONE
•
Danone realized that it had drifted away from its origins as a manufacturer of healthy
foods
•
•
•
•
Sold off its beer, meat and cheese units
Refocused the company on dairy and water
Acquired medical nutrition and baby foods businesses
Created Innovation Committees in business units to provide “healthy food for as many
people as possible”
Vision
Mission
The ‘dual economic and social’ project,
creating economic value by creating
social value
Social Progress Imperative
Bringing health through food to as many
people as possible by refocusing on four
complementary business lines and
expanding into fast-growing new regions
46
#socialprogress
THE PURPOSE OF BUSINESS
•
Our purpose in business is to create shared value for society, not economic
value for its own sake
•
Businesses acting as businesses, not as charitable givers, are arguably the
most powerful force for addressing many of the pressing issues facing our
society
•
Shared value will give rise to far broader opportunities for economic value
creation
•
Shared value thinking will drive the next wave of innovation, productivity,
and economic growth
•
A transformation of business practice around shared value will give purpose
to the corporation and represents our best chance to legitimize business
again

• The local social progress committee has
already started work in three priority
areas
• If we get more of you to join the effort, we
could expand and deal with many more.
• These priorities are:
–
Nutrition (meet the nutrtional needs of
1,000,000 additional paraguayans)
–
–
Water and sanitation
Shelter

THE ROLE OF BUSINESS IN SOCIAL PROGRESS
• Now it is time for business leaders in Paraguay to walk
alongside government in fostering social progress, in creating
many instances of shared value, and in developing the
competitive strategies that will lift this country to its full potential
• The new government creates an opportunity for a new publicprivate relationship
