Take a look back at our most-watched session at SUSTx 2022, on demonstrating sustainability leadership and changing organisational culture.
The importance of sustainability leadership
A key topic we addressed at the SUSTx Sustainability Summit 2022 was sustainability leadership. We found this topic imperative to explore, as we see business leaders under more and more pressure to improve their triple bottom line (people, planet, and profit).
Societal and governmental expectations around business and sustainability have increased that pressure and now business leaders must think about how they can shift the culture in their organisation and guide their business to becoming more sustainable.
The experts on sustainability leadership
It came as no surprise when we found our most-watched session at SUSTx 2022 was our all-female panel discussion on “How to Demonstrate Sustainability Leadership and Change Our Organisations' Culture”. In this session, we saw a range of speakers from multiple sectors discussing sustainability leadership, including:
• Jemma Waters, Head of Responsible Transformation, Lloyds Banking Group
• Judith Everett, Executive Director, The Crown Estate
• Marleen Oberheide, ESG Solutions Engineer, OneTrust
• Sarah Mukherjee, CEO, Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment
• Rachel Everard, Head of Sustainability, Rolls-Royce
Our five experts came together to discuss purpose-driven strategies for the sustainability journey, integrating sustainability strategies within the organisation, the importance of internal and external collaboration, and how to build a robust sustainability culture and engage stakeholders.
