ESG is playing an increasingly prominent role in dialogue with customers, banks, insurance companies and business partners. At the same time, many small and medium-sized enterprises find that ESG can seem overwhelming and that it is difficult to know where to begin.
The reality is that most companies are already doing a lot of the right things. The challenge is often to create an overview, prioritise the effort and get the work organised.
At this workshop, Transition will help you translate ESG into concrete actions that make sense specifically for your business. Through short presentations, practical exercises and concrete tools, you will work with your own company and gain a strong foundation for your continued ESG work.
After lunch, there is the opportunity for individual mentoring with the advisors from Transition regarding precisely your company's challenges and opportunities.
