Way to Embrace Environment, Social and Governance as a Component of Your Strategy
If you’re a business leader, you’re legally obliged to optimize your strategy and resources to maximize shareholder return. This may lead you to assume that it’s not your responsibility, or in your best interest, to care about the environment, social, and governance issues (ESG).
But, actually, making ESG a part of your business strategy can unlock growth opportunities, reduce costs, and future-proof your brand in the eyes of an increasingly conscious public. Listen to this HRchat episode to learn how!
Our returning guest is Scott Lane, Founder and CEO of Speeki, a group focused on transforming compliance hotlines and other compliance areas using Ai technologies.
Speeki is also a player in compliance certifications and compliance auditing and one of the few bodies accredited by ISO for certifications under the ISO 37001 Anti-Bribery Standard.
Questions Include:
- There seems to be lots of dialogue right now about ESG and whether it is a fad or something that will stay around. What do you think?
- Is this just for large global companies or is there a place for smaller companies to build ESG?
- You recently presented a webinar called Combining a whistleblower program with social listening to generate data. The webinar’s goal was to show how to generate real data for one’s #ESG and compliance efforts by combining an active #whistleblowing program with a proactive social listening tool. Can you tell me more?
- How do most Human Resources teams get involved in ESG?
- Does the process typically start with HR or is there a ESG officer?
- Where do you think this ESG area will go in the future?
