Earlier this fall, Colin Browne, Cascale CEO, spoke at the Executive Leadership Forum hosted by the Center for Global Enterprise (CGE) in Panama City. The Center for Global Enterprise was established to help educate societal stakeholders on the globally integrated economy and its promise for a better future. It convenes leaders worldwide and advances enterprise transformation through applied research. In addition to Browne, speakers at the Executive Leadership Forum included Dr. Ernesto Perez Ballardes, former president of Panama, along with session leaders Mario Perez Balladares, chairman, Narval, and Marko Kovacevic, managing director, Digital Supply Chain Institute.

The CGE facilitates several distinct programs, including the Digital Supply Chain Institute, a leading-edge research institute focused on the evolution of enterprise supply chains in the digital economy and the creation and practical application of supply chain management best practices. Browne's presentation was focused on setting priorities and measuring results for ESG supply chain integration, as customer expectations and regulatory environments evolve. He started off by giving an overview of Cascale's origins, which began with a simple but ambitious vision to convene stakeholders across the industry on a pre-competitive basis to develop a common approach to measuring sustainability. Browne highlighted Cascale's commitment to giving back more than it takes, both for people and the planet. He emphasized the diversity of Cascale's membership, which spans apparel, footwear, home furnishings, sporting goods, and bags and luggage brands and manufacturers.

Browne also shared how the organization has evolved from unifying the industry, to fostering tool adoption and strategic partnerships, and finally to finding new avenues for scaling impact. He went on to give an overview of the legislative landscape and noted the increasing shift towards mandatory sustainability disclosure away from voluntary disclosure. He shared how governments around the world are increasingly introducing legislation that requires companies to disclose their sustainability-related information, driving greater transparency and accountability.

Finally, he emphasized how Cascale is evolving from a facilitator to a leader, with a commitment to equality of voice, highlighting the organization's dedication to ensuring stakeholders have a voice in shaping their collective future. He emphasized the importance of leadership in driving the industry towards unified action against key challenges like climate impact and decent work conditions. Browne concluded his presentation by urging attendees to step up their efforts to collaborate on accelerating collective action at scale to drive meaningful change.
