Produktbeschreibung

ESG, CSR, and sustainability have become a dynamic and critical focus of corporate governance. The ESG challenges for corporate boards are complicated and this valuable guide sets out to carefully explore what happens when governance meets sustainability. The book serves as a guide to current ideas about ESG and governance and provides insight to directors on their role with respect to ESG matters.

Written by a team of corporate governance experts, the guide begins with a valuable lexicon of ESG and sustainability terminology so that corporate directors have a baseline to understand the conversation. Divided into five parts, the book covers important issues, practical tips, and key take-aways for board members with discussions on:

• What is sustainability and how has it evolved?
• The role of the board and the role of the audit committee in the board's management of sustainability and ESG issues.
• What are the drivers of sustainability and who are the stakeholders?
• Board oversight of the dynamic ESG landscape.
• How does ESG affect corporate strategy and risk oversight and what are the mission-critical responsibilities of the boards of directors?
• Legislation, mandatory and voluntary reporting requirements, and litigation and risk management.
• Operations management: supply chain, employees, and customers.
• Diversity, equity, and inclusion in the boardroom and beyond.
• And much more!
