Over the last few months, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink tells associates he is no longer using the term ESG (environmental, social, governance) and McDonalds recently reduces mention of the term from its web site. Does this mean the end of ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) or a healthy focus on how a strategic focus on sustainability creates value rather than fodder for glossy corporate sustainability reports read or believed by few. Ironically, right wing efforts actually could reduce efforts to curb ESG could actually lead to less transparency. ... [ read more ]

In September 2008, just as the world was entering the Great Recession, the Enterprise Engagement Alliance was conceived to promote a formal process for engagement across the enterprise. Its formation was based on eight years of research demonstrating the benefits of a strategic and systematic approach to engaging all stakeholders in the purpose, goals, and objectives of the enterprise and the need for a practical roadmap for implementation. We did not expect that the issue of stakeholder management could become a political issue or that the European Union would pass a disclosure law largely based on its principles. ... [ read more ]

In other CSRD news: the EU seeks to create a marketplace for auditors and independent service providers; the UK publication Edie finds that few companies have begun preparing for the new law. ...

Contrary to popular belief, the concept of stakeholder management goes back at least to the 1950s and probably earlier to a small group of business leaders and academics who recognized that there is no way to optimize returns for shareholders over time without addressing the interests of the customers, employees, supply chain and distribution partners, and communities upon whose success they depend. This survey is designed to help you quickly find out if your organization is already on its way to benefiting from a business approach that seeks to enhance sustainable returns for investors only by creating value for all stakeholders. ...

The political pushback on ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) appears to have put little dent in the creation of corporate sustainability management positions. The requirement of thousands of US companies and nearly 60,000 around the world to create standardized stakeholder management disclosures under a new European Union law not only will require organizations to hire advisors or individuals to manage their sustainability efforts but will encounter the fact that there are very few people with much of the training necessary to address the full human and environmental scope of the position today. ...
