BFS 3 - Operationalising Sustainability for Directors

Business Future Series
Many organisations are seeking to appoint sustainability executives and committees to help set their emission reduction goals towards a low carbon economy. However, such actions may not always effectively translate into real outcomes. Directors can play a more active role to operationalise sustainability, but how do they do so with clarity, scale and speed? Join us for this session, especially designed to provide directors and senior management with actionable insights to uncover possibilities, calibrate pertinent sustainability risks and opportunities, and highlight long-term business implications.
