What to expect?

Many sustainability professionals recognize the feeling: ambitious ESG goals on paper, but limited commitment once day-to-day pressures take over. With geopolitical tensions, changing priorities and increasing budget pressures, sustainability quickly risks being relegated to the background when only a small team has responsibility.

At the same time, we see that organizations that manage to structurally embed ESG often have one thing in common: they create ownership far beyond the sustainability team. They turn colleagues into ambassadors, link ESG to day-to-day decisions and build internal movements that stand up even when priorities shift.

During this session, you’ll discover what that looks like in practice, including the difficult lessons along the way.

You will leave this event with:

    concrete examples of organizations that have successfully built internal ESG ambassador networks across departments;

    practical ideas to move beyond symbolic initiatives and work toward structural behavioral and cultural change;

    insights on how to create internal support among management, operational teams and skeptical colleagues;

    honest exchange with other sustainability professionals struggling with similar challenges.
