ESG Roadmap
Why is ESG important?
We live in a time of unprecedented change. ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) criteria are becoming increasingly of interest to investors and other stakeholders. These factors are a subset of non-financial performance indicators which include ethical, sustainable and corporate government issues such as making sure there are systems in place to ensure accountability and managing the carbon footprint. ESG factors are relevant to business strategy and now play a key role in value creation.
If there is a future point where your business will seek investment, the design and implementation of an ESG roadmap to achieve internal accountability is vital and we would highly recommend making a start now.
At Shape Tomorrow we understand business leaders are overwhelmed by the current pace of change and are looking for a trusted partner to help them develop and manage their sustainability journey. Our specialist team have worked alongside multiple businesses, keeping an ESG roadmap simple and manageable is their top priority.
Environmental
What impact does your business have on the environment? This includes reporting on energy consumption, manufacturing processes and efforts to increase transparency of suppliers green credentials.
Social
How does your business improve its social impact, both internally and in the community? Factors include diversity and inclusion, and how a business advocates for wider good beyond its direct sphere of influence.
Governance
How does the board and leadership team drive positive change? Governance is about the practices and procedures in place to govern and comply with the law. Policy reviews include additional ISO accreditations.
Net Zero
Is the constant drum beating for ‘Net Zero’ becoming part of the problem rather than the solution? There is a business case for calculating your carbon emissions ‘baseline’, beginning your journey to net zero without the perceived pain points.
Brand Strategy
We understand successful brands have a clear vision and inspire trust. If a brand is misleading, consumer perception will be negatively impacted. Successful brands create and manage their identity responsibly.
Talent Acquisition
People are at the heart of business growth. We can help you understand the vital role of culture to create positive behaviours, and develop programmes that unlock available talent from within, as well as attract new talent.
