A Guide to Selecting and Monitoring Environmental, Social and Governance Metrics.
Welcome to "ESG Performance Measurement: A Guide to Selecting and Monitoring Environmental, Social and Governance Metrics."
In this course, we explore the world of ESG metrics, the range of measures available, how to select appropriate measures for your organization, and how to interpret the results and determine impact.
Measures of environmental, social, and governance performance are becoming increasingly important. Regulators want to see them in annual reports, and organizations now want to prove to their stakeholders and society at large that they are not damaging the environment and the communities they work in. Most organizations want to show that they are reducing their footprint, and many want to actively improve the environments and communities they impact.
ESG metrics are not always easy to measure, and it is often difficult to correlate actions with impact. In this course, I explore environmental, social, and governance performance measurement and how monitoring ESG performance can contribute, in some small way, to saving lives and habitats and improving the state of our planet.
Topics covered include:
Let’s go on an ESG journey. I hope you enjoy the course.
