In today's regulatory landscape, it is essential to disclose robust governance, strategy, and metrics on sustainability, climate, and nature. This is not just important for meeting regulatory requirements but also for satisfying the disclosure needs of investors and customers. It also allows you to maintain a strong competitive position. You need to be careful when communicating these efforts as it can be easy to fall into the trap of greenwashing. Saying less comes with the disadvantage of sacrificing the strategic benefits and transparency that stakeholders demand. Join this session to explore effective strategies which allow you to achieve genuine and impactful sustainability communications.
