Webinar | Preparing an ESG Strategy: What, why and how?

Creating and implementing an ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) strategy is a fundamental component of how companies manage ESG-related challenges and risks. This webinar will explore the essential questions: What exactly is an ESG strategy? Why is it critical for your organisation? How can you effectively develop one?

In today’s environment, ESG performance is under heightened scrutiny, with growing interest from a wide range of stakeholders—boards, investors, financial institutions, employees, shareholders, and consumers alike.

To address this, many companies are formalising their sustainability commitments by crafting and publicly sharing a robust ESG strategy. A well-defined ESG strategy outlines a company’s vision, objectives, and measurable targets across environmental stewardship, social impact, and corporate governance. It acts as a guiding framework for embedding ESG principles throughout the organisation - spanning operations, supply chain management, stakeholder engagement, and transparency in reporting. Establishing clear, quantifiable metrics is essential for demonstrating progress and enabling stakeholders to assess performance in a meaningful and consistent way.

This webinar will provide you with:

  • A clear understanding of ESG strategy —what it is and why it’s essential
  • Key components of ESG, from setting goals to implementation
  • A guide to developing, publishing, and monitoring ESG progress
  • Practical insights for organisations of all sizes, across both the public and private sectors, to ensure your strategy is a success.

Join us to learn how to build, refine, and communicate your ESG strategy effectively, and position your organisation as a leader in sustainable business.
