CEF presented the 2021 C.K. Prahalad Award in two categories: collaborative leadership by an executive team to Microsoft's CEO Satya Nadella, President and Vice-Chair Brad Smith, Chief Financial Officer Amy Hood, and Chief Environment Officer Lucas Joppa; and leadership by an individual executive to Ecolab Chairman and former CEO, Douglas M. Baker, Jr. The awards were announced at the 2021 CEF Annual Leadership Retreat, attended by senior executives representing CEF member companies with combined revenues of $4 trillion.
Four of Microsoft's top leaders received the prestigious honour for their collaborative leadership to transform Microsoft into a carbon negative company by 2030 and to remove all of the company's historical emissions by 2050: CEO Satya Nadella, President and Vice-Chair Brad Smith, Chief Financial Officer Amy Hood, and Chief Environmental Officer Lucas Joppa.
CEF Founder MR Rangaswami explained what set the team's approach apart: "Nadella, Hood, Smith and Joppa have exhibited a remarkable level of joint ownership of this moonshot initiative - this is the first time we've seen a CEO/President/CFO/Environmental Sustainability coalition like this. They've defined a new model for what corporatewide climate leadership looks like while sending a clear message that sustainability is core to Microsoft's business strategy for the decades ahead."
