In this episode of the Sustainability in Motion podcast, hosts Matt Orsagh and Maria Maisuradze engage in an insightful discussion with William Burckart, CEO of the Investment Integration Project (TIIP), which helps investors integrate systems thinking in the investment process. The conversation explores the transformative concept of systems-level investing, a forward-thinking approach that integrates financial, social, environmental, and economic systems to address systemic risks such as climate change, inequality, and resource scarcity.

Key highlights include:

  • Introduction to Systems-Level Thinking: Bill explains the shift from traditional investment strategies to a holistic approach aimed at mitigating root causes of systemic risks rather than their symptoms.
  • Practical Applications: Examples such as large-scale infrastructure projects and innovative asset allocation strategies that address interconnected societal and environmental challenges.
  • Bridging Theory and Practice: How tools, techniques, and collaboration across sectors can help investors influence broader systemic change.
  • Building Executive Buy-In: Practical advice for sustainability professionals on initiating and sustaining meaningful organizational change through systemic thinking.
