How General Counsel Can Help Define the Right ESG Goals to Accelerate Business 2023 | Gartner | 22 August 2023 | Webinar

As organizations face increased pressure from a wide range of stakeholders to act and show environmental, social, and governance (ESG) results, they must align on ESG goals that have strategic significance. Most turn to the general counsel to advise them on where and how to invest, but to be effective in this role, they must help business partners set goals that align with the organization’s strategy. Unfortunately, business leaders report that the goals are typically disconnected from what the business is trying to achieve. As a result, targets are either not met or are deprioritized, and organizations face consequences from their stakeholders. Join this complimentary webinar where we will identify how general counsel can help organizations bridge this gap by assisting them in effectively evaluating the strategic implications of potential ESG goals and how they develop strategies that ensure the organization can advance on those goals that are worth pursuing.

• Understand how to prioritize what leadership should consider when setting ESG goals
• Effectively influence the organization’s ESG goal setting process by increasing its strategic impact
• Learn by example how leading organizations set ESG goals that support their business objectives
