Ask in-house counsel about Environmental, Social, and Governance programs, and they'll likely tell you that 2023 has been a year of polarized reactions across a wide variety of industries. But whatever the reaction, two things are clear: ESG is here to stay, and it’s no longer just a sustainability team’s responsibility.
This highly anticipated sequel to our ESG webinar earlier this year explored how the landscape of ESG compliance is evolving and its integral role in modern corporate legal practices.
Axiom’s Higher Bar host Zach Abramowitz dove deep into the critical intersection of ESG factors and corporate legal strategies with Amy O’Connell, General Counsel of Roux, and Peter Kelso, Principal – Economic & Complex Analytics Practice at Roux. This follow-up webinar can help empower legal professionals by providing insight into-
- Legal’s Role in ESG: Learn how aligning legal and ESG objectives can lead to enhanced corporate responsibility and resilience—and how to translate those objectives and get stakeholder buy-in.
- ESG Trends: Gain insights into the growing importance of ESG in maintaining stakeholder trust and sustaining long-term business success.
- ESG in Legal Strategy and Budgeting: Uncover the financial and reputational benefits of making ESG compliance a priority in your legal department.
- ESG Best Practices and Risk Mitigation: Understand how to mitigate risks associated with ESG non-compliance and employ best practices that enhance your organization's ESG performance.
The webinar is a must-watch for legal pros who want to stay at the forefront of ESG compliance. Share this webinar with your teammates and stakeholders to align your goals for greater business success.
