Join us for this Directors’ Deep Dive hosted by branch sponsor Pivot & Pace
Sustainability is redundant - or at the least the type of sustainability that is just focussed on sustaining the way we currently operate.
It’s widely accepted that we can’t continue to operate the way we do. The mandate now isn’t simply to talk about sustainability. It is to take action. To give back more than we take.
With the global issues we face, sustainability has become an imperative for business. However, due to the complexity and interconnectedness of the issues, it can be difficult to know how to get started and where to focus when it comes to sustainable transformation within businesses.
Join our speaker to discuss getting started with strategic sustainability: key concepts to frame the way we do business, evaluating where your business can impact and influence, and the importance of authenticity and transparency.
This interactive discussion-style event will be capped at 15 attendees. You will be encouraged to ask questions and actively contribute your perspectives.
