Board Ready: Governance for Responsible Leadership in ESG

With environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance now factoring into executive compensation and business strategy, what are the new metrics for success? Why is it even more important to have a strong governance framework in place so that your ESG disclosures to regulators like the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are defensible to your stakeholders, especially your board beyond the annual reporting cycle?

In this series sponsored by Workiva, we’ll answer these questions and more as we dive into the “G” in ESG and what it means across industries — from finance to consumer goods. (Image credit: PeopleImages.com/Adobe Stock)
