I am so looking forward to our next executive roundtable next week in Nyon for Sustainability leaders from all industries on the very topic of #Sustainability #organisation and #operatingmodel Indeed, following the success of our first event in this series in June in Zurich, we'll be hosting a second event in the Romandie on Wednesday, 27 November 2024, before the next one in Zurich early 2025. As sustainability continues to be a top priority, it's crucial for companies to stay ahead of the game. Whilst much attention is currently placed on reporting requirements, we’ve observed that many organisations are still working to establish sustainability as a professionalised #capability that drives long-term impact. So... we will once again be gathering sustainability leaders from across Switzerland, bringing them together to continue the conversation on this important topic. Craig Stevenson, Hester Muhring, Sophie Osborne and I cannot wait to lead fascinating discussions around the industry insights brought by Hallvard Bremnes, Anna Maria Rugarli and Christian Moraldo. #esg #change #future #people #organisationaldesign #socialimpact #societalimpact #csrd #pwc Christophe Bourgoin Sebastian di Paola

Andrew Buay, Vice President of Group Sustainability at Singtel, shared his insights at the Singapore Institute of Technology’s (SIT) Chief Sustainability Officers’ luncheon, highlighting AI's dual role in ESG—driving innovation while posing unintended challenges. Energy-efficient AI practices reduce environmental impact, cut costs, and enhance corporate responsibility. Yet, AI production still entails significant environmental and social costs, such as rare earth mining, e-waste challenges, and high energy demands. Sustainability, as Andrew notes, is no longer just about compliance. It’s about embedding ESG into organisational culture to fuel innovation. Institutions like SIT are key to equipping leaders with the skills to navigate this complex landscape. The challenge is clear: harness AI’s promise while mitigating its unintended impacts. How is your organisation balancing this equation? Read on to explore how enterprises can navigate AI responsibly: https://lnkd.in/gfhhVJJW #sustainability #greengrowth #APAC
Sustainability Leader and Mentor. Executive Leadership Coach. Mentor to Social Impact Start Ups. Board Advisor in Social Services and Tertiary Education Sectors.
This week I had the pleasure of being one of the keynote speakers at Singapore Institute of Technology's (SIT) inaugural Chief Sustainability Officers’ network luncheon. Over the past two years I have had the privilege of serving as a member of SIT’s Industry Advisory Committee for Sustainability Education. 🙏 I shared perspectives on how sustainability was evolving within the corporate landscape and the Singtel Group. With greater legislation on the horizon comes the opportunity of "normalisation” and integration of sustainability within organizations. This has implications for the development of a sustainability culture, skills and competencies across the organisation, and this is where tertiary institutions like SIT can play a critical role. 👩🎓 👨🎓 While sustainability is still very focused on climate today ⛈, I spoke about the “rise of the social agenda” 👨👩👦👦, as well as the implications of AI for ESG - both the opportunities and unintended consequences that needed to be tackled. As sustainability embeds and integrates, CSOs have the opportunity to focus on the value-creation and the innovation 💡side of sustainability. Gim Neo from World Economic Forum spoke about the major global trends influencing sustainability and also facilitated the dialogue amongst the CSOs. Sze-Meng Soon shared on GoNetZero™'s decarbonization platform supporting the regional transition to Net Zero 🌳 . Yih Tng Ethan CHONG spoke on how SIT’s core tertiary curriculum embeds sustainability, as well SIT's certified micro-sustainability modules for corporate professionals 👩💼 👨💼 . It was great to have this open dialogue with the fellow CSO network and SIT leaders. Thanks Singapore Institute of Technology for organising this event.
