This heightened stakeholder focus indicates that boards are confronted with new expectations. However, not many global organisations and their leaders are equipped to adopt ESG issues in their business goals.

Our recently held webinar, ‘Sustainability and the next phase of Business Growth’ stressed on the key facets that have an impact on the organisations’ ESG metrics. Our illustrious panellists’ captivating & forward-looking visions & experiences will surely not just be an eye opener for companies, they will also offer companies a great head start towards implementing ESG agenda in full throttle.
