Watch: Fortune Impact Initiative Live Stream 2022
assets The Impact Initiative will explore environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues from inception to integration as they move up the corporate hierarchy and become a key driver of business strategy. Our program will explore how leaders can provide a holistic risk assessment and goal achievement framework that will help encourage and scale widespread implementation and measurement of ESG-related practices.
This two-day gathering will bring together the most influential ESG-focused leaders to share ideas and articulate best practices that have a positive impact on people, our planet and the bottom line. The event will be held in Atlanta and virtually. On this page you can watch all Mainstage sessions.
From the evolving SEC climate disclosure rules to circular economy principles, industry leaders will demonstrate an actionable way forward as we delve into the systemic environmental risks disrupting normal business operations and why it’s more urgent than ever to address them to respond to threats. We will also examine how the events of recent years have put respect for human rights and social concerns in the spotlight, and how forward-thinking companies are exploring and eliminating prejudice to shape a more inclusive culture. Also on our agenda are important conversations about the new skills needed by business leaders to build risk resilience and how they can evolve to deliver long-term results.
