Why Governance?
Good governance covers everything from overall mission and ethics to accountability for implementation of projects and transparency in operations and reporting. These dimensions all reflect the value of an integrated strategy and make an excellent foundation for your company’s sustainability journey.

When it comes to implementing sustainability many organizations fail to effectively determine how to utilize their internal staff to move the company’s program from concept to action. It is vitally important to determine what sustainability organizational structure aligns best with the company’s culture, resources, and ultimately ambition with regards to sustainability.
