Bosses across industries are increasingly tasked by long-term ESG (environment, social, governance) concerns. Atlanta business leaders are no different. College grads or corporate managers growing as leaders are finding opportunities around sustainability. In a world driven to find short-term gains, are you prepared for long-term challenges?
Recherche du CST en 2018 Tendances en matière de rapports sur le développement durable (ESG) Amérique du Nord se concentre sur l'influence de la durabilité sur les résultats financiers. Nous constatons que le lien entre les rapports sur le développement durable et les performances financières est confirmé. L'attention portée aux préoccupations à long terme se traduit par des bénéfices annuels.
CSE research highlights findings from key sectors including:
- Media and Telecommunications
- Transportation
- Énergie et services publics de l'énergie
- Construction
- Agriculture
- Food & Beverage
- Financial Services
- IT and Security
These industries are key drivers in Greater Atlanta, in Georgia and throughout the South. Warner Media, AT&T, Coca-Cola, Delta, Home Depot, (many of whose execs we’ve trained), face serious and growing need to produce and implement a strong sustainability strategy.
Through consulting, research and training, we break down CSR (corporate social responsibility) data by sector. Drawing from the telecom industry, the issues which keep telecom CEOs on edge include:
- Conception de produits durables,
- l'inclusion et la diversité,
- la gestion des talents,
- le service à la clientèle et la transparence,
- le respect de la vie privée et la sécurité,
- les déchets et le recyclage,
- l'énergie et les émissions.
Whether you are an engineer, from HR, client relations, IT or operations, CEOs need sustainability experts.
Another example from telecommunications:
- only 15 of the 600 sustainability reports in North America were from the telecom industry – more are needed!
- 27% of those reporting are externally assured – higher than average but room for growth
- 60% of the top-10 telecom companies (based on revenues) conduct sustainability reports – key to a pattern of success!
Be among those driving successes. Indeed.com lists thousands of well-paying Atlanta jobs which omit “sustainability” from the job title but includes it prominently in the job description. For example, ZipRecruiter reports that telecom jobs in Atlanta range from $39,000-$70,000, with many reaching even higher.
Le CST Programme des praticiens certifiés en matière de développement durable (édition avancée 2019) offers trainings on these key topics and many others. The first 2019 programs in North America are in Atlanta, Feb. 21-22; Toronto, April 11-12; and Seattle, April 15-16, 2019.
