Our upcoming webinar on 📅 THURSDAY 30TH MAY ⏰ 12:00 - 12:50 PM (AEST) is no exception. Titled "NAVIGATING THE PATH FROM A LINEAR TO CIRCULAR ECONOMY ♻," this session features two remarkable change-makers who are at the forefront of driving the transition to a circular economy. Join us as we welcome Ashleigh Morris (GAICD), Co-Founder and CEO of Coreo, and Jos Boere, Director of Allied Waters, for what promises to be an enlightening and inspiring talk. Ashleigh, an invitee to the 73rd United Nations General Assembly and a guest speaker at the World Circular Economy Forums in 2019, 2021, and 2023, harnesses her fiery belief in a better world to spark change where its impact matters most. In her keynote address at Ozwater'22, she emphasised the crucial role of water, stating, "Without water 💧, there is no economy. Water is in a prime position to change how the entire economy works." Jos, as the Director of Allied Waters, is leading the charge in making the circular economy a reality within the Water-Energy-Food nexus. The Allied Waters team firmly believes that complex issues demand an integrated approach, which can only be achieved through collaboration with like-minded partners who share similar ambitions.

As 2024 comes to a close, we're taking a look back on some of our most-read content this year. Our next spotlighted piece is a report written by BSR’s Chief Impact Officer Laura Gitman and Managing Director, BSR Innovation Group David S. Korngold: The CSO at a Crossroads: Three Paths Forward for Sustainability Leaders. While more visible and valued than ever before, heightened expectations and pressures are placing the Chief Sustainability Officer at risk of becoming overly focused on compliance at the expense of innovation and strategic foresight. Amidst a backdrop of rapid changes in the sustainability landscape, BSR interviewed more than 30 CSOs to hear their perspectives on this dichotomy and understand where success can be found through professionalization and integration of this function. From these discussions, three potential paths forward emerged through which CSOs can: illuminate new business opportunities; advocate for systemic change; and ensure that sustainability remains a priority at the highest levels of corporate decision-making. In this report, go inside the mind of a CSO and explore avenues for maximum impact in the field of sustainable business: https://lnkd.in/eMSexCbe #sustainablebusiness #sustainablefuture #businesstransformation #governance 

There are many challenges that come with a career in sustainability - changing damaging perceptions is definitely one of them.  As a sustainability leader, what are your biggest challenges? Leafr is currently doing a study of hundreds of FTSE100 and SME leaders to find out what are their biggest fears, and what’s really happening behind the scenes at some of the world’s most influential companies.  Leaders have been sharing their experiences anonymously, and then the report will be published to give company execs a real understanding of the realities of how businesses are faring against their sustainability goals, so that they can take action. They’re looking for sustainability leaders to take part, so if you’d like to have your views heard, please contact Gus Bartholomew directly.  And if you'd like a copy of the report when it's ready, please comment 'report' below. #sustainability #CSO #sustainabilitydirector #esg #business #ftse100 #sustainabilitygoals #esgtargets #netzero #ad #eco #esgcareers
