Heightened interest in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) has become a key topic during board room discussions, elevating the intersections between Compliance, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Sustainability. It’s now imperative for companies to go beyond traditional CSR and Sustainability reporting and roll out a well-structured ESG program that enables resilient business operations, meets customer expectations, and attracts investment.  

This Master Class will help get you started with your ESG initiatives or help improve them by using the latest best-practice frameworks.
