Riassunto

Increasingly, companies are being judged by their performance in terms of Environmental Social Governance (ESG). But exactly what does it mean, and what should be done about it? While much ambiguity exists, it is no longer sufficient to negotiate the environmental assessment process successfully. ESG is an ongoing process that spans the entire life cycle of a company and its operations.

This book is aimed at business leaders – senior executives and company directors – and particularly those involved in the extractive industries and other ventures that significantly affect the environment and host communities. Guidance is provided on the major ESG issues that confront all business leaders. Strategies are provided to address ESG risk and to handle crises when they occur.

QUESTIONS FOR BUSINESS LEADERS:

Are you at all prepared for an environmental or social crisis event?

How will you cope with the "unknown unknowns"?

What do your shareholders expect you to do about climate change?

Are your employees proud of the company’s ESG performance?

How does your bank evaluate your biodiversity impacts?
