Materiality – Managing Long-term Risk

Welcome, everyone. Yesterday I wrapped up my Materiality series with the webinar Materiality – Managing Long-Term Risk. If you weren’t one of the many people in attendance, or if you would like to view the webinar again, the video is embedded below for on-demand viewing.  The topic of materiality is critical when developing and progressing a corporate sustainability program. The information covered in this webinar and the accompanying videos provides a guide to identify the sustainability issues that are critical to your program, as well as your core business strategies. Stay tuned for the next series that will cover how to use this information to address the key issues you have identified.

As I mentioned in the webinar, we will be covering Materiality in depth at my seminar on January 28, 2015. This hands-on event will give you the skills you need and includes interactive workshops to help you to apply them directly to your organization. If you want more information on the upcoming seminar, visit my website.

Also, do not miss out on the webinar I will be presenting Thursday, September 4! Aaron Smith, Director of Sustainable Building Solutions from ASSA ABLOY Door Security Solutions, will be joining me in this cutting-edge session, How Sustainability is Redefining Product Innovation. I will be providing my insight into sustainable product design based on years of practical experience, and Aaron will be providing real-world examples of ASSA ABLOY’s product innovation and the value they have realized through sustainability.

I hope you to see you on these upcoming events and continue to welcome your comments, feedback and questions.

Employing Sustainability to Bolster Your Business Strategy

Welcome, everyone. As we prepare for next week’s webinar on materiality, I have included another video, Creating Sustainability Goals that Supplement Your Business Strategy, below. This video focuses on using materiality to align sustainability strategies with existing corporate objectives. One reason we consider materiality is to identify and prioritize the key areas that are important to stakeholders and critical to the continued success of the organization.

Materiality is becoming increasingly important as organizations strive to find innovative ways to mitigate future risks and capitalize on market opportunities. This video demonstrates how to use the results of a materiality assessment to develop strategic goals.

Utilizing a triple bottom line approach to focus on ESG issues allows organizations to better prepare for the ever-changing global economy. Companies that consider and address long-term ESG factors are typically forward-thinking industry leaders that are realizing significant economic benefits. Make sure you register for next week’s webinar for a deeper dive into materiality and to have your questions answered.

Also, last week I announced that, following the success of my Corporate Responsibility seminar in May, I will be hosting an encore seminar on January 28, 2015.
