April 26: Day Two

9:00 AM How Shared Services Can Improve & Create Value Through ESG Initiatives

ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) initiatives are being driven from multiple angles. From an employer’s perspective they help attract talent, whilst from a governance standpoint; regulators and policy makers are demanding higher standards of sustainability and quality of employment to help them solve social problems such as pollution and inequality.  There is also strong evidence ESG initiatives can assist with topline growth! Shared Services is in a great position to help drive ESG governance within their organization and we’ve gathered a panel of experts to share ideas on how to get started:

·       How ESG can help with talent acquisition and employee motivation

·       Looking at current ESG initiatives and how they’re driving value within the organization

·       How can we increase sustainability in our supply-chain

·       Conducting an ESG assessment and figuring out metrics to track
