Amanda Davies has seen a generational shift in both procurement and sustainability . The Chief R & D , Procurement and Sustainability Officer at Mars Wrigley is uniquely positioned at the global giant to see the virtuous circle between the two business areas and how they can power the other .
She says we need to be “ fanatical ” about addressing climate change issues , prioritising performance over ambition .
“ We are the first generation of leaders who can ’ t say we didn ’ t know about climate change , and the last generation who can act before it ’ s too late ,” she explains .
