ESG Mindset

“This book is a bold and engaging attempt to unpack the confusion and provides an objective view of an all-round stock-taking on where we go from here with ESG.”

― Helene Li, CEO and Co-Founder, GoImpact Capital Partners

About the book

Today, companies are thrashing their resources and flailing their budgets as they figure out how to disclose metrics, deal with material risks, and capture new opportunities, all while storytelling about impact.

Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance issues cut at the core of business, threatening to upend industries, the markets, and capitalism itself. Yet, despite a renewed focus on ESG, companies struggle to understand its meaning and how it can help address new interconnected crises.

This book guides company leaders and employees to something ESG hasn’t had before – a consistent meaning that uncovers value by realizing the impact of the world on their company while reframing the company’s impact beyond the bottom line and along its purpose.
