♻️ Sustainability is daring to look differently
What choice will you make today? And do you dare to move along if necessary?
This page on sustainability is probably different than you expect. Here you won't find any empty phrases about 'how well we're doing'. Because if you dare to take a completely honest look : sustainability always has multiple sides.
Things are not black or white. Sustainability is about making conscious choices . About doubting. Daring to ask yourself questions and challenging yourself.
That's why we at Lagant don't always agree with each other
Take, for instance, how we view the cars we drive. Jeroen believes in green driving . If it were up to him, we would all switch to electric cars. Orlando thinks differently . What will happen to the acid from all the batteries we can't get rid of? Orlando's solution: don't buy a new car at all. Now that is truly sustainable.
So what is sustainability anyway? At Lagant we think sustainability is about:
- To investigate something
- Engaging in discussion among each other
- To then make a conscious choice
That takes courage
That is quite exciting at times. For example, we work with Tata Steel. Tata Steel isn't exactly known for sustainability. But they really do want to make that transition . Then you can do two things:
❌ say: they are polluting, we do not cooperate with that
✅ say: they are polluting and they want to change, let's help! 🤩
At Lagant, we consciously choose option 2. After all, where can you get the most work done? Exactly, where it is dark. Obvious? No. A typical example of lateral thinking at Lagant? YES!
♻️ What we believe
Sustainability does not mean that we know everything or 'do it very well'. But it does mean that we dare to doubt. That we think along with people who want change. And that we ask sharp questions; also to ourselves.
Change is always something you do together. So: how do you view sustainability? What are your change questions? We would love to talk to you.

Innovation in project and change management
A growing aspect of the shift to sustainable entrepreneurship is the role of innovation in project management and change management. Methodologies such as PRINCE2 increasingly emphasize sustainability and focus on the human factor, through which companies create a more sustainable future and generate value.
Dare to change
It is important to recognize that change is not always easy. Many change processes fail because people are naturally reluctant to change their habits. At Lagant we believe in a people-oriented approach to change processes, where changes are implemented step-by-step and manageable. In this way we can reduce resistance to change and increase the chance of success.
In our pursuit of sustainability, we at Lagant continue to innovate and evolve. We are committed to making a positive impact on the environment and society, and we hope our efforts will inspire others to do the same. Together we can make a difference and build a greener future for all of us.
