Profit by Design: Turning ESG from obligation to advantage

How to embed sustainability where it matters most - in profit, resilience and performance

Many ESG strategies never make it beyond the annual report. They sit in a glossy PDF, disconnected from decision-making and divorced from performance.

Profit by Design is Ancoram's guide for FTSE 350, ISEQ, and large private businesses ready to make sustainability pay off.

This isn't about box-ticking or green gloss. It's about practical ways to:

  • Cut costs through efficiency and smarter resource use

  • Win tenders by embedding sustainability into your value proposition

  • Strengthen governance, audit-readiness and investor trust

  • Build resilience against climate, social and regulatory shocks

  • Capture new revenue through innovation and differentiation

What's inside?

  • Six case studies from companies turning ESG into competitive advantage

  • A five-sphere model for embedding sustainability into the business system

  • Maturity frameworks, quick wins, and boardroom prompts

  • Pitfalls to avoid when the stakes are high

Who it's for

CFOs, general counsel, heads of sustainability, and commercial leaders who want to move beyond disclosure and into performance.

Why now

As regulation tightens and investor scrutiny deepens, ESG must become a source of commercial value - not a reputational risk. Done right, sustainability becomes a strategic asset.
