Abstract: Technology leaders in top-performing companies spend significantly more time on building a complementary enterprise capability than their peers. Carbon emission reduction is a top concern for organizations, and therefore developing an enterprise capability for digital sustainability is a compelling opportunity for technology leaders. In our study, technology leaders were building and using an enterprise tracking capability to pursue three opportunities for scaling carbon emission reduction at their companies: optimizing technology emissions and product emissions and creating digital offerings.
