The fact that the FT\u2019s Editorial Board put their collective name to this piece reveals the extent to which the current global crisis is forcing many commentators, business leaders and policymakers to fundamentally rethink organisational purpose, values and principles. In 2012 the Maturity Institute was established with the clear and explicit remit of redefining organisational purpose as the pursuit of maximum societal value. MI set about reworking the systemic foundations for a renewal of corporate legitimacy. By 2017 we worked with MI to progress to the stage of&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrmaturity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/OM30_TSVrecognition-v8.pdf\">producing a blueprint<\/a>, based on exemplar corporations, as measured against our universal OMINDEX\u00ae scale and framework in terms of their Total Stakeholder Value (TSV&#x2122;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TSV&#x2122; is a contract by which all stakeholders are afforded equity. It also provides a comprehensive, practical roadmap to help society transition away from the \u2018shareholder primacy\u2019 era of capitalism that was summarily brought to a close by the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrmaturity.com\/financial-times-business-must-act-on-a-new-corporate-purpose-the-alternative-can-only-be-total-stakeholder-value\/\">US Business Roundtable<\/a>&nbsp;Statement issued on Monday 19<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;August 2019. The BRT statement, that \u2018all stakeholders matter\u2019, may have been a declaration of intent but it offered no alternative model for a better society; and business was largely carrying on as usual until the global pandemic brought the world economy to a shuddering halt. No doubt most CEOs around the world are viewing this pandemic as catastrophic, from a business viewpoint. Yet the coincidence of this event, following so closely on the demise of shareholder primacy, should be seen as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for every single person on the planet to experience a world that is permanently changed for the better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Forming alliances to build a Total Stakeholder Value society<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hrmaturity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Screen-Shot-2020-04-07-at-11.42.17.png?resize=327%2C121\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7059\" width=\"327\" height=\"121\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Roger Burnley\u2019s epiphany (right) is one that awaits the vast majority of boards and CEOs who have been under the yoke of quarterly results for decades. Total Stakeholder Value frees them from this narrow view of \u2018performance\u2019 while benefitting shareholders in the process. This is the apparent paradox of maturity \u2013 how can everyone gain while no one loses? The answer is very simple, no \u2018social\u2019 contract can be fashioned from a zero sum gain; where the shareholder\u2019s gain is society\u2019s loss. Instead, the social contract that underpins OMINDEX\u00ae is already proven by exemplar companies. Our TSV&#x2122; system is built on the most sustainable foundations that satisfy all the criteria now generically referred to as ESG (environmental, social, governance). So why, and how, should corporations willinglingly enter into this contract, post-COVID-19?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.omservices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Screen-Shot-2021-01-07-at-16.10.27.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.omservices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Screen-Shot-2021-01-07-at-16.10.27.png?resize=472%2C318\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1742\" width=\"472\" height=\"318\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.omservices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Screen-Shot-2021-01-07-at-16.10.27.png?resize=1024%2C692&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.omservices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Screen-Shot-2021-01-07-at-16.10.27.png?resize=300%2C203&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.omservices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Screen-Shot-2021-01-07-at-16.10.27.png?resize=768%2C519&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.omservices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Screen-Shot-2021-01-07-at-16.10.27.png?w=1140&amp;ssl=1 1140w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.omservices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Screen-Shot-2021-01-07-at-16.10.27.png?w=948 948w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 472px) 100vw, 472px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the last few years, we have been building partnerships to help corporate management practice transition and transform into Total Stakeholder Value organizations. In 2017, we collaborated with&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hrmaturity.com\/responsible-investing-shaping-the-world-we-want-to-live-in\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hermes Investment Management<\/a>&nbsp;to produce our groundbreaking study of the health of the global banking sector. We have taught our methods on MBA programmes and our evidence has powered research with Cambridge Judge Business School. We have also worked with company valuation and strategy consultants to demonstrate, quantifiably, how human intangibles drive intrinsic company value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More recently our revolutionary, analytical methods have formed the basis of our alliance with&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hrmaturity.com\/mis-omindex-enters-mainstream-equity-research-and-financial-analysis\/\" target=\"_blank\">Redburn Research<\/a>. This enables Redburn equity analysts to use OMINDEX\u00ae ratings to integrate ESG into their company analyses and investment appraisals. The analysis they produce are the world\u2019s first measure of whether business leaders are working to a much more responsible,&nbsp;<em>and<\/em>&nbsp;financially valuable, social contract. It has already creating excitement within the investment community and is providing a renewed basis for corporate engagement, where everyone is interested in building the most favourable, long-term value outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OMINDEX\u00ae also serves as an organisational diagnostic that provides a clear and simple series of practical steps; that will improve the value of a business, continuously, through its enhanced capability for increasing the value of its people. This model is already working but its continued success is dependent on executives and managers being dedicated to the task of realising true \u2018organizational health\u2019. Doctors and nurses are vocationally committed, and bound by oath, to always put the patients\u2019 interests first; even at the personal risks they are now having to endure. This is the same standard we use for management; along with a stipulation that they have to employ the same scientific, evidence-based, methods used by the medical profession for over a century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Commercial opportunities \u2013 emerging market for Mature Leadership &amp; Management<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OMS LLP is now ready to scale up its range of partnerships by developing professional practice collaborations with organisations and individuals who can adapt their own expertise to work in a mature, and more responsible, capitalist system. We are specifically seeking alliances with organisations engaged in board and c-suite advisory &amp; consultancy; audit and accounting; and risk management. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to register your initial interest please contact&nbsp;<a>stuart.woollard@omservices.org<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201c\u2026. the great test all countries will soon face is whether current feelings of common purpose will shape society after the crisis.\u201d&nbsp;\u201cVirus lays bare the frailty of the social contract \u2013 Radical reforms are required to forge a society that will work for all\u201d&nbsp;FT Editorial Board, 3 April 2020 Coronavirus exit strategies can pave the &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/?p=1732\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Are you a Total Stakeholder Leader for a Post COVID world<\/span> <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1734,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[63,62,64,61],"class_list":["post-1732","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorised","tag-company-culture","tag-organisational-maturity","tag-risk-management","tag-stakeholder-value"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.omservices.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Newsheader-2.jpg?fit=1200%2C400&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5zQHw-rW","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1732","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1732"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1732\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1827,"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1732\/revisions\/1827"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1734"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1732"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1732"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.omservices.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1732"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
