You can’t deliver ESG commitments without your marketing team.

I loved recording this episode and think it's such an important conversation on sustainability and the role marketing places. We dove into some pretty interesting areas, including: ? Why most corporate ESG efforts fail before they start ? The power of diverse voices in driving change ? And how internal comms can make or break your strategy To unlock true corporate change, communication isn’t just a “nice to have” ??

ESG & DE&B: Why Are We Keeping Them Separate? Let’s be honest! Sustainability and diversity efforts shouldn’t be working in silos. Both aim to create a better world, so why aren’t they working together? Think about it ?? A company sets bold climate goals (awesome!), but if they don’t include diverse voices, they could miss out on smarter, more inclusive solutions. The good news? There’s a better way. By bringing ESG and DE&B together—and understanding how people actually change behaviors—we can create impact that lasts. ?? Want to see how it works (and why it matters)? ??

?? No Growth on a Dead Planet! ?? The science is clear—our reliance on fossil fuels is driving climate change. But here’s the good news: we can decarbonize and still thrive! ?? Sustainability isn’t about stifling growth—it’s about future-proofing it. Ignoring the challenge won’t make it disappear. It’s time to roll up our sleeves and ask, “What part of this can I help with?” Every action, no matter how small, creates a ripple. And when ripples come together, they create a wave of change. ?? ??

?? The Missing Piece in Driving Real Change? Empathy. ?? People don’t change their behavior because of stats—they change when they feel something. ?? The plastic straw movement took off after a heartbreaking video of a sea turtle. ?? Plant-based diets gained traction through personal stories, not just reports. So, how can we drive real action in sustainability? ? Make it relatable—connect issues to everyday life. ? Tell stories—data informs, but emotions move us. ? Offer small, meaningful steps—empower, don’t overwhelm. Want to create real impact? Lead with empathy. ??

?? The Omnibus ESG Regulation: What It Means for Companies and Sustainability Leaders ?? Big changes are here! ??? The European Commission introduced the Omnibus Simplification Package, aiming to streamline ESG regulations like CSRD, CSDDD, and the EU Taxonomy Regulation. For businesses, this could mean: ? Less regulatory burden and clearer ESG reporting. ? Simplified compliance without compromising sustainability goals. But there’s a catch... ??? Some investors fear that too much simplification might weaken the EU’s sustainable finance framework and slow down real ESG progress. So, what should sustainability leaders do? ? Stay informed—these changes will impact your reporting strategies. ? Assess your ESG framework—prepare for a shifting regulatory landscape. ? Engage stakeholders—policymakers, investors, and industry peers will shape the future of ESG. The key question: Can the EU strike the right balance between efficiency and impact? ??

?? "What the ESG?": 3 Things We Wish We Knew Before Working with ESG Teams ?? We were wrong ?? - when we first started working with ESG teams, we assumed ESG was a structured, well-integrated function in most organizations. From fragmented accountability to imbalanced reporting, here are 3 key insights that every company serious about ESG should know: ?? Chief Sustainability Officers are mostly focused on the "E" – while DEI and governance sit elsewhere. ?? Social & Governance are often overlooked – despite investors valuing them as much as financial performance. ?? ESG’s home in a company? It depends. Without clear ownership, ESG efforts can become scattered. So, how should companies get ESG right? ???
