Ethics, Risk, and Responsibility: Why ESG Matters Now, with Denise Taylor

Ethics, Risk, and Responsibility: Why ESG Matters Now, with Denise Taylor

A wolf marking its territory, a six-hour road trip with a stressed-out bear, and the unexpected link between conservation and corporate sustainability, Dr. Denise Taylor's journey into ESG is anything but ordinary. But what does any of this have to do with business risk, responsibility, and ethics? A lot more than you might think.

From wolf conservation to supply chain sustainability, Denise shares hard-hitting insights on why ESG is no longer optional for businesses. Whether it's legislation tightening, supply chain pressures, or consumer demand for ethical business, ignoring ESG could cost organisations dearly. More than just a compliance tick-box, ESG done right creates opportunities, resilience, and competitive advantage.

Highlights:

  • Wolves, Bears, and Business Ethics: How Denise's background in wildlife conservation shaped her ESG expertise.
  • Risk and Sustainability: Why safety and sustainability are more connected than most people realise.
  • Beyond Net Zero: ESG isn't just about carbon why businesses need a broader, strategic approach.
  • The Cost of Doing Nothing: Contracts lost, reputations damaged what's at stake for organisations ignoring ESG.
  • Greenwashing Dangers: How to prove genuine sustainability without falling into misleading marketing traps.
  • Supply Chains Under Pressure: Why aerospace giants like Rolls-Royce are demanding ESG compliance from suppliers.
  • The Opportunity Side of Risk: How ESG can drive competitive advantage, funding opportunities, and even awards.
  • Small Steps, Big Impact: Practical first steps for businesses to start their ESG journey today.
