Course overview

It has never been more important for organisations to pay serious attention to corporate sustainability. How organisations approach their environmental, social and governance (ESG) responsibilities is now under close scrutiny from investors, shareholders, customers and employees. Failing to acknowledge this could prove financially and reputationally damaging for your business. However, seizing the opportunity to embrace it with a clear strategy could improve the performance and resilience of your business in the long term.

Putting a sustainability and ESG policy in place can be an overwhelming and intimidating proposition. This comprehensive and practical course will help you understand the essential principles of sustainability and clearly guide you through the process of developing and implementing the appropriate ESG policies for your business.

  • The main forces driving sustainability and ESG principles in the global marketplace
  • The key principles that are important for a successful ESG strategy
  • The benefits of ESG and consequences of failing to implement it
  • How to tailor and implement an action plan specific to your company’s needs
