Today, companies are stretching their resources and budgets as they figure out how to disclose metrics, deal with material risks, and capture new opportunities, all while storytelling about impact – without greenwashing! Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance issues cut at the core of business, threatening to upend industries, the markets, and capitalism itself. Yet, despite a renewed focus on #ESG, companies struggle to understand its meaning and how it can help address new interconnected crises. Join us for the kick-off to Legal ESG: New York with the “benevolent troublemaker” Matthew Sekol, ESG and Sustainability Advocate working at Microsoft and Author of?ESG Mindset.
