This paper provides C-suite executives and senior leaders in the minerals industry with a guide on what constitutes a Holistic Healthy Human (HHH) through the introduction of a novel integrated HHH framework with inner holistic health and interpersonal holistic health components unpacked. The value-add of the framework centres around positively enhancing Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) transformation through a focus on the social enterprise. The proposed novel integrated HHH framework unpacks the vital components and establishes the linkages to the ESG interface as well as to multiple stakeholders. The research employed a targeted approach where 10 C-Suite and senior leaders were interviewed each holding greater than 20 years experience in mining and/or business leadership. The application of this novel integrated HHH framework with the full understanding of its value-add by industry leaders can strengthen the social licence to operate and positively transform the image and opinion of the minerals industry. The applicability of this approach to other industries is currently underway.
