As part of the Mahindra Speaker Series 2022, Dr Anish Shah, MD and CEO, Mahindra Group, will be in conversation with Paul Polman, former CEO, Unilever, about how business should be a force for good.

Paul, who is also the Co-Founder of IMAGINE, works to accelerate action by businesses to tackle climate change and inequality. A leading proponent that business should be a force for good, he has been described by the Financial Times as “a standout CEO of the past decade”.

As CEO of Unilever (2009-2019), Paul demonstrated that a long-term, multi-stakeholder model goes hand-in-hand with excellent financial performance. He was also a member of the UN Secretary General’s High-Level Panel, which developed the Sustainable Development Goals, which he continues to champion.

Paul’s new book, “Net Positive”, is a call to arms to courageous business leaders, setting out how to build net positive companies that profit by fixing the world’s problems, rather than creating them.

He Chairs IMAGINE, a social venture dedicated to systems change, and Saïd Business School. Paul is the Vice-Chair of the UN Global Compact as well as a B Team Leader. He is also Honorary Chair of the International Chamber of Commerce, which he led for two years.
