Climate Impact

The Boardman Development Group on Responsibility on the Agenda of the Board and Management organises a webinar on Climate Impact.

Are you aware of the increasing regulation tsunami by EU due to the Climate Change? Have you figured out what the EU’s commitment to reduce 55% of greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 (compared to 1990 levels) will mean to the companies, your work as a board member?

Boards of Directors need get prepared for the forthcoming changes in order to be able to help company owners to safeguard their businesses and to transfer polluting businesses more sustainable.
It is essential for board members to

• raise ambition and accelerate sustainability, climate action and innovation for sustainable businesses
• learn about boards’ impact and approaches to handle climate risks and opportunities in broader sustainability issues.

This webinar is held in English.
