Hosted by Marcy Twete · business · EN
In today's business landscape, responsibility and sustainability are no longer optional or "nice to have." Modern stakeholders don't just expect an environmental, social and governance (ESG) focus, they demand it. Being a good corporate citizen today is "table stakes." Simultaneously, many of the corporate social responsibility departments companies launched in the last 30 years aren't thinking enough about innovation, growth, business-focused results and resilience. Table Stakes discusses the issues of sustainability with forward-thinking leaders to forecast the future of responsible business. Being ethical, human and sustainable is no longer optional – it's table stakes.
