SPRG NEXT SESSION | Communicating Sustainability – navigating the challenges and building trust

Effective sustainability leadership hinges on clear, consistent communication—both internally and externally. As expectations rise and scrutiny intensifies, businesses must articulate not only their approach but also their performance in ways that resonate with different and diverse audiences.

Global Risks 2022

Most major sustainability issues have important risk dimensions for companies – and societies. In many cases these are still not adequately represented in board-level discussion, company risk assessments or registers.

Biodiversity – the next crisis?

While we've been concerned with action on climate and tied up with Covid19, a larger, related crisis is brewing. Businesses are waking up to the need for action on biodiversity.
