The triple impact model is emerging as an essential approach for organizations that want to not only survive, but also thrive in the long term. This approach goes beyond simple occasional philanthropy and involves a deep integration of social and environmental aspects into the organization’s strategy, operations, business model, and organizational culture.

As public awareness increases around critical issues such as climate change, gender equity, and human rights, businesses are increasingly being evaluated not only for their financial performance, but also for their commitment to ethical and sustainable values. Those organizations that successfully incorporate the triple impact model into their business DNA position themselves strongly in the minds of consumers, investors, and other key stakeholders.

The value of this approach lies in its ability to address long-term risks and challenges while also capturing preferences rooted in social demands, building resilience that transcends economic cycles. By actively engaging in the improvement of the communities in which they operate and by managing their resources in a sustainable way, these organizations establish a deeper connection with their consumers and create relationships based on trust.

Implementing the triple impact model requires building integrated narratives related to the value proposition and developing congruent actions across all management fronts. The entire organization, each of its stakeholders, must be a communication post.

A model for implementation would include the following phases:

  1. Phase 1: Definition and Planning
    1. Identify stakeholders: Identify all key stakeholders, both internal (employees, executives, shareholders) and external (customers, suppliers, community, NGOs, etc.).
    2. Map interests: Conduct a detailed analysis of the interests and expectations of each stakeholder group in relation to the customer experience and triple impact.
    3. Coordination team: Create a multidisciplinary team to lead and manage the program. This team should include representatives from different areas of the organization.
  2. Phase 2: Design of the Integrated Narrative
    1. Values and purpose: Define the company’s core values and the purpose that guides its actions in relation to triple impact and the customer experience.
    2. Core message: Develop a core message that summarizes the company’s value proposition in terms of triple impact and customer experience.
    3. Embodiment stories: Identify embodiment stories that illustrate how the company is generating a positive impact in the economic, social, and environmental dimensions while improving the customer experience.
  3. Phase 3: Strategic Communication
    1. Communication channels: Identify the most effective communication channels to reach each stakeholder group. This may include social media, website, newsletters, events, etc.
    2. Relevant content: Create a variety of relevant content that highlights the company’s achievements, challenges, and goals in relation to triple impact and the customer experience.
    3. People’s stories: Highlight personal stories from employees, customers, and community members who have been positively impacted by the company’s actions.
    4. Active participation: Invite stakeholders to participate actively in the narrative by sharing their own experiences, testimonials, and perspectives.
  4. Phase 4: Collaboration and Participation
    1. Interactive platform: Create an online or physical platform where stakeholders can interact, share ideas and suggestions, and participate in discussions about triple impact and the customer experience.
    2. Events and workshops: Organize events, workshops, and talks where stakeholders can learn, debate, and collaborate on topics related to the program.
    3. Surveys and feedback: Conduct periodic surveys to measure stakeholder perception and satisfaction with the triple impact proposition and customer experience.
  5. Phase 5: Measurement and Continuous Improvement
    1. Impact indicators: Define key indicators to measure progress in relation to triple impact and the customer experience. Share these results in a transparent way.
    2. Feedback: Use feedback from stakeholders to constantly adjust and improve the strategies and actions of the program.
    3. Recognition: Recognize and celebrate the achievements and contributions of stakeholders who actively participate in the program.

Consumer mentality has evolved significantly, and more and more people are valuing and supporting businesses that embrace sustainable values. Conscientious consumers seek products and services that not only meet their needs, but also reflect their own concerns for the environment and society.
