🌍 𝐋𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐂𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐞 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬: 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐄𝐏𝐑 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚    South Africa’s Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regulations put the onus on producers to manage the entire lifecycle of their products, promoting recycling and a circular economy. But navigating these requirements can be challenging.   A LCA is a powerful tool to ensure compliance, providing a comprehensive analysis of a product’s environmental impact from cradle to grave. This holistic approach helps producers align with EPR regulations, reduce environmental harm, and improve product sustainability.   📝 𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬: - EPR regulations target producers in industries like packaging, electronics, and lighting. - LCAs help assess environmental impacts, from material extraction to disposal. - By using LCAs, businesses can enhance product design, minimize waste, and avoid penalties. 📦 For industries like packaging, a LCA can guide the choice of materials and design to meet recyclability and waste minimisation targets.

“It's simple – people drive businesses,” says Nobuhle Ncube (She/Her). As part of the founding team of BrightWolves South Africa, a leading management consulting firm headquartered in Brussels, she would know… We spoke to Nobuhle about the challenges and opportunities of Big Transformation, particularly in the PMI phase of M&A, and here's what we learnt: People are the core of M&A success. M&A deals often fail because they overlook the employees who drive the business. If employees aren't engaged or informed, the risks of resistance and attrition rise. Communication is essential. Clear, consistent communication is crucial during M&A. It helps reduce employee fear and uncertainty, ensuring alignment with the merger’s objectives. Cultural integration is key. Cultural differences can derail a merger if not addressed. Respecting and integrating different work cultures is critical to avoid employee resistance and ensure a smooth transition.
