Accountability Frameworks
As Boards try to balance inherited legacy governance structures with evolving roles and responsibilities, now is the time for Boards to:
- Distill their vision in a way that reflects their core values, long-term goals and commitments to a sustainable future
- Ensure they have adequate systems in place to enable appropriate decision-making and oversight
- Adequately demonstrate accountability in achieving organizational objectives aligned with stakeholder communications
The integration of sustainability continues to be a key priority as Boards consider the resiliency of their corporate strategy and stakeholders demand action.
BIG helps Boards narrow their ESG-universe with bespoke strategic frameworks that are aligned with corporate and stakeholder priorities, vision, resources, capabilities, best practices and reporting standards.
