Elkington’s triple bottom line
You close the event with one sentence about money, and everything you learned about the people and about what you threw away disappears with that sentence.
Elkington proposed people, planet and profit, then in 2018 publicly recalled his own concept in Harvard Business Review, because it had become a reporting format.
Close your next event in three sentences: what was left or short and why; who did the most work, how many hours, and will they come back (ask, do not guess); what you threw away. Then turn those three sentences into ONE decision for the next event.
Do not overdo this part: The author himself later admitted the three lines usually become a report with no decision attached. Three sentences and no decision is exactly that failure.
