SUMMARY:7th Annual Sustainability Week
DESCRIPTION:Annual Sustainability Week Accelerating transition\, building resilience!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n7th Annual Sustainability Week  \n\n\n\nThe world is not transitioning to net zero fast enough. Extreme weather events of the past year—with average global warming at 1.1°C over pre-industrial levels—are just a taste of what could lie down the road. If countries fail to become carbon-neutral by 2050\, limiting the global temperature rise to 1.5°C will not be possible. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is the decade to deliver. Business leaders need to respond more aggressively to meet ambitious targets for mitigating climate change. Governments need to invest in climate-resilient infrastructure while reducing social inequalities that have been highlighted by the covid-19 pandemic. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFour months on from COP26\, the seventh edition of Economist Impact’s Sustainability Week will examine how existing policy and regulatory frameworks have addressed climate change\, and the progress made so far on emission-reduction commitments. Bringing together industry leaders\, policymakers\, entrepreneurs and researchers from around the world\, the event will assess how society can take a more holistic approach to sustainability in order to achieve targets and deliver significant impact. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSenior sustainability and CSR professionals from all industriesBusiness leaders and executives (managers\, directors\, c-suite) from all industriesImpact investors / responsible investorsESG reporting agenciesCharities and organisations with an interest in sustainability issuesSustainability and climate academics e.g. researchers and professorsRelevant government bodies\, departments and policymakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFind out more about the 2021 event audience here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by EconomistEvents\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://esgnews.com/category/sustainability/ \n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.

SUMMARY:All you need is trust: strengthening confidence in business relationships
DESCRIPTION:In today’s interconnected world\, trust within and between businesses is continually put to the test. Suppliers need businesses to trust that they will deliver goods and services on time. Corporate customers need to trust that businesses are safeguarding their data. And businesses must trust that suppliers are upholding workplace standards and ethics. But with supply chains and business units spread across the globe\, and most transactions\, trades and negotiations taking place remotely\, it has become ever harder for businesses to build and maintain trust.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs any business leader knows\, trust is built slowly and over time\, but it can be broken almost overnight. And where it fails\, businesses stand to lose not just profits and reputation\, but human capital too. But while business leaders say they recognise the importance of trust\, there appears to be an action gap. A PwC survey of 503 business executives in the US revealed that 50% of the companies surveyed had not defined what trust meant to their business\, and even fewer had embedded it as part of their business strategy.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCovid-19 demonstrated starkly the disruptive effects of a global crisis\, and the strains and expectations placed on business as a result. With companies navigating an increasing number of everyday threats\, from the impacts of climate change to rising cybersecurity risks\, businesses need to be able to rely on their relationships to ride out the storms. Trust can be a powerful tool in the corporate arsenal\, but strategic thinking is required to place it front and centre in business strategy. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgrammed by Economist Impact and sponsored by Icertis\, this webinar will convene business representatives\, consultants and thought leaders to examine how companies can strengthen trust in business-to-business relationships to improve profits\, performance and resilience.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe questions we will seek to address include:  \n\n\n\n● Is there a trust deficit in business-to-business relationships? How did covid-19 impact trust in business relationships?  \n\n\n\n● To what extent can trust be defined\, quantified and measured?  \n\n\n\n● What are the key drivers of trust within a business? What factors do stakeholders value most?  \n\n\n\n● How can businesses put trust at the centre of their corporate purpose and business strategies? What lessons can be learned and applied?  \n\n\n\n● To what extent is trust a determinant of business success? How can trust improve business performance and outcomes? \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister Here\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.
