Description

CSR Level 2: Building, Steering and Reporting on Your Sustainability Roadmap

Turning sustainability commitments into a prioritised roadmap that is resourced and tracked over time

  • 2 days — 14 h
  • In-person or virtual
  • Foundation
  • Up to 6 participants

After an initial awareness phase, many organisations hold a baseline assessment and a long list of actions with no prioritisation. The heavier topics that touch the business model or procurement remain outside the scope because they call for trade-offs, and the initiative loses momentum.

These two days focus on implementation: ranking issues according to their importance for the business and for stakeholders, setting objectives and trajectories, building the roadmap workstream by workstream, governance of the steering process, data collection and accountability. Each participant leaves with a roadmap template.

Learning objectives

  • Rank sustainability issues according to their importance for the business
  • Translate the selected priorities into objectives and dated trajectories
  • Build a roadmap by workstream with owners and resources
  • Organise the governance and steering of the approach
  • Structure data collection and the production of reporting

What makes this programme different

Issue prioritisation matrix built on each participant's real-life case
Workshop on moving from an action list to a multi-year trajectory
Data collection process tested on an indicator chosen by the group
