In this 75 minute masterclass, you’ll explore how to build an effective sustainability strategy by focusing on materiality—identifying the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues most relevant to your business and stakeholders.

We have a real world example to review, a case study on Unilever.

 

 

During the course of the session, you will:

  • Learn the critical components of a robust sustainability strategy.
  • Explore the concept of materiality and how to identify the ESG issues that matter most.
  • Discover how to set SMART sustainability targets and measure performance.
  • Engage in a real-life case study discussion to apply materiality to strategic decision-making.
This session is designed to provide you with practical tools and examples that you can apply directly to your organisation, whether you’re just beginning your sustainability journey or looking to refine your approach.

 

Register today and take the next step toward building a resilient, future-ready organisation!
