The Sustainable Director: Leading the Charge on ESG for Long-Term Value
This webinar forms part of the 2025 Directors Series.
Description
Sustainable directors translate ESG into strategy, using sustainability reporting to steer performance, risk, and stakeholder trust. Core data spans emissions (Scopes 1–3), energy, water, waste, supply-chain due diligence, workforce diversity, pay, safety, governance, and anti-corruption. UK and Jersey regimes emphasize TCFD-style climate disclosures and stewardship. EU/International frameworks include CSRD/ESRS, SFDR, EU Taxonomy, ISSB IFRS S1/S2. Independent assurance validates metrics, strengthens controls, deters greenwashing, and underpins long-term value for resilient growth.
This webinar provides one-hour of CPD and offers insights and updates from a leading industry-expert speaker.
Delegates places are interchangeable with colleagues from the same organisation.
