A Practical Introduction to ESG Communications

A growing area of focus, because it is both required by regulators and part of delivering on public expectations that brands and businesses will deliver on ‘Environmental, Social, and Governance,’ or ESG. ESG is shorthand for the three main areas besides finance that can impact a company’s long-term performance. These include but are not limited to:

● climate change,
● diversity and inclusion,
● supply chain and labour practices,
● corporate governance and
● cybersecurity and data privacy.

Communications professionals need to understand ESG issues in order to effectively manage reputation, engage with stakeholders, ensure compliance, and identify opportunities for innovation and differentiation.

Whether you’re new to communicating these issues or have started to get a grasp on how to tackle them more skillfully, the practical classes I’ll be offering through the PRCA will help you refine your understanding and skills. Along with a general overview of ESG trends, risks and opportunities for communicators, participants will have an opportunity to discuss, share, and apply their learning during the class, using a framework I’ve developed through years of experience. It’s not rocket science, but it does require time and practice, and these classes will give you both.
