For many organisations, becoming a Certified B Corporation™ represents a commitment to responsible business, transparency, and long-term impact.
At B Corp consultancy A Beautiful Green it means helping companies transform their strategy, operations and culture to create positive environmental and social impact.
Acknowledging B Corp Month 2026, company team members Edwige Filot and Elif Ankarali explain how and why:
Beyond the certification, what does working at a B Corp mean to you?
Edwige: Working at a B Corp goes beyond the certification itself. It means being part of a company where impact is considered in everyday decisions whether we are supporting clients on their sustainability journey, sharing knowledge through articles and workshops, or engaging with the broader impact community. In practice, it’s about constantly asking how our work can contribute to more responsible and resilient businesses.
Elif: [It also] means that employees, nature, society and clients all have a voice in the decisions a company makes. As an employee in a B Corp consultancy, it also means sharing the values of the B Corp movement, trust, collaboration, collective decision-making, and a strong commitment to creating value beyond profit. It means putting people at the centre, developing solutions that work in harmony with nature, and taking action rather than simply maintaining the status quo. In many cases, it means being willing to lead the change rather than waiting for it.
Can you share a concrete example where impact became measurable in your work or a client engagement?
Edwige: One example that stands out was conducting a carbon footprint assessment for a company and helping them translate the results into a concrete action plan. Seeing the data turn into practical steps, such as identifying key emission sources and defining reduction priorities, made the impact very tangible. Even if many sustainability projects take time before their results fully materialise, contributing to that first step toward climate action felt particularly meaningful.
Elif: The B Corp journey is not a process with a clear beginning and end; it is a continuous path of improvement. Companies need to keep measuring, tracking, and strengthening their environmental, social, and governance practices over time.
One of the most rewarding experiences for me was seeing how a company we supported through its B Corp certification continued evolving afterwards. Observing the progress they made in their re-certification journey, the initiatives they implemented to improve their impact, and hearing from their employees about the positive changes within the company made me feel very proud of the work we had contributed to.
As a B Corp consultancy, what makes A Beautiful Green different and how do you ensure sustainability is embedded in daily operations?
Edwige: What makes [it] unique is that we don’t just advise on sustainability, we are part of the ecosystem ourselves. Our team actively contributes to the B Corp and impact community through events, workshops, and knowledge sharing. At the same time, sustainability is reflected in our daily operations: from how we collaborate internally to how we engage with partners, clients, and initiatives that promote positive impact.
Elif: A Beautiful Green lives the values of the B Corp movement in its own way of working. Beyond supporting companies in their sustainability and B Corp journeys, the team actively contributes to the wider community and participates in collaborations and advocacy initiatives. It is also a company strongly committed to continuous learning and development, supporting its employees to grow and deepen their expertise in sustainability. And ultimately, this approach ensures that sustainability is not just something we recommend to clients, but something we practice in our everyday work.
Founded in 2019 in Luxembourg and operating throughout Luxembourg, Belgium and France, A Beautiful Green helps businesses embed sustainability into their culture, inspire teams and “lead with integrity in a rapidly changing world”.
