Particular attention is paid to the process of creating sustainability transformation roadmaps, highlighting key steps such as vision setting, stakeholder engagement, resource allocation, technology integration, change management and continuous improvement. The chapter concludes by emphasizing that roadmaps are not only planning instruments but also crucial factors for increasing resilience and competitive advantage, supporting organizations in moving toward sustainability as a key element of their strategy and value creation.
