Learn from the experts: ESG (environment, social, governance)

About this event

Join us and welcome a panel of experts on ESG (environment, social and governance).

Join our brilliant panel at this online lunchtime event exploring different perspectives of the ESG agenda and how this intersects with the HR agenda, including real life implementation examples and plenty of time for questions and discussion.

· The first registered B Corp in Berkhamsted, Waggle are a small Hertfordshire based business that meets the highest standards of social and environmental impact and is committed to using business as a force for good. Hear about their story getting there.

· The MoD employ over 60,000 people. Hear from a Senior People Officer how they approach the ESG agenda and the role HR can play.
