The Only Option

One man. One company. One decision that changed everything.

Dr Manish Shukla and Vickey Swami

“Sustainability is not a choice. It is the only option.” These seven words became the title of a novel. They are also the conclusion of fourteen years of field research.

The Only Option takes the conclusion of fourteen years of field research and puts it into the hands of a character who has to act on it.

The research says that sustainability has stopped being a values decision and become a condition of remaining in business. The novel asks what that looks like from inside a company, on the day someone has to decide.

Sustainability is not a choice. It is the only option. The leaders and companies who understand this first do not just transform themselves. They transform the rules of competition for everyone that follows.
