Digital Sustainability: Designing Resilient Digital Systems

By Shivam Kishore and Catherine Mulligan

Digital transformation has become a strategic lever for organizational resilience at every scale. Adapt and thrive in the face of disruption by integrating advanced technologies and sustainable practices with this essential guide.

In a world defined by climate shocks, geopolitical upheaval and relentless technological change, today's business leaders must balance profitability, stakeholder expectations and the urgent need to address global sustainability challenges. While digital technologies are revolutionizing industries, many leaders remain unprepared to harness their full potential for sustainable impact. Digital Sustainability fills this critical gap. This book enables practitioners to rethink what emerging technologies such as AI, IoT and blockchain can achieve when applied systematically and thoughtfully to real-world problems, whilst confronting the environmental and social risks they pose and exploring the new thinking required to govern them responsibly.

Digital Sustainability is anchored in practical, scalable strategies that leaders and policymakers can adopt immediately to operationalize digital transformation with genuine impact. Readers will discover why resilience matters, how to build it across culture, strategy, operations and policy, all while ensuring technology remains in service of people, the planet and enduring organizational value.

Through robust, ready-to-use frameworks, this book equips leaders with the skills to navigate the challenges of digital transformation, whilst ensuring their organizations adapt and thrive in a world increasingly shaped by environmental and societal constraints.
