Sustainable Governance consists of the foundational system, culture, and principles enacted by the highest governing body, that considers environmental, social, and economic factors, to uphold, defend, and maintain decision-making and oversight, consistently over time, for the benefit and resiliency of the organization as well as the needs of its stakeholders.

OUR BIG WORK

Building a Sustainable Organization

Our BIG services help transform the traditional role of the Boardroom, stakeholder inclusion, and fiduciary responsibilities to ensure that Boards maximize opportunities arising from the ever-changing sustainability, compliance, regulatory and disclosure landscapes.

Modern governance is our differentiator. Sustainable governance will be yours.

BIG offers two divisions of governance services: Corporate Governance and ESG Strategy. We like to think of it as the “G” in ESG and the “G" of ESG.
