Enabling Supervisory Bodies
Supervisory Board members need to acquire background knowledge and competencies in order to control, challenge and  accompany Executive Boards in the areas of ESG and Sustainability. They oversee the operational management  in setting up strategic ESG & Sustainability Programs, including suitable roadmaps, budgets, timelines and reporting mechanisms. Correct and timely internal and external stakeholder communication is at the core of supervisory bodies' interest.

With focused workshops, supervisory body members are provided with background knowledge on the regulatory ESG environment and upcoming ESG trends. They learn industry practices regarding ESG strategy setting, ESG operationalisation roadmaps, state of the art governance set-up as well as ESG communication tools. The workshop members are enabled to critically challenge CSRD reporting, including baselining, target setting and definition of metrics and measures. State of the art usage of Artificial Intelligence and its responsible and accepted handling play a crucial role throughout. 

Sparring with Top Management and supporting their Teams

Strategy workshops help top management to identify their strategic ESG differentiators and design their according transformative journey. Differentiating ESG chances-driven entrepreneurial flagships from ESG housekeeping helps setting the focus right. The following operationalisation roadmaps helps the teams to implement the strategy in a data driven way, defining baselines, targets, measures, KPIs and responsibility. Last but not least, designing a customised ESG governance will help implementing the ESG strategy and complying with CSRD reporting requirements with the right resources in the right place.
