Putting the G back in ESG – Is governance the secret weapon of transformation?

DateTimeHybrid

The incoming wave of sustainability regulation – in the EU and elsewhere – sets a new compliance floor for companies and their value chains, and is commanding much corporate time, resource and attention.

But it’s not yet clear if requiring companies to evidence how they identify, assess and manage their material environmental and social impacts is having the desired effect. Is it providing the impetus to create real, transformative change, or is it is merely adding another item to the already lengthy to-do list for hard pushed sustainability teams?

Join us for a panel discussion with Good Business, Echo Research and senior sustainability professionals to explore this question. With reference to new research conducted with the Good Business and Echo Research Sustainability Leaders Panel, we'll be posing questions such as:

  • How are sustainability leaders dealing with the torrent of new regulations and its implications?
  • In companies that are prepared and ready for regulations such as the CSRD, to what extent is what they've learned about their impacts and dependencies changing the way they do business?
  • How, for example, is it changing the way boards oversee and manage sustainability impacts, risks and opportunities? How is it affecting their assessment of the resilience of current business models? How is it informing necessary changes to business models, strategies and value chain arrangements?

Fundamentally, these are questions of governance, and they are foundational to translating enhanced due diligence and disclosure requirements into implementation and action.
