Sustainability Leadership: The Global Outlook
The Strategic Guide for Executives, Finance Leaders, and Boards Navigating the New Era of Corporate Accountability
Kindle eBook

The strategic guide for executives, finance leaders and boards navigating the new era of corporate accountability.
Sustainability is no longer a side project. Regulators, investors, lenders and insurers now expect companies to measure, manage and disclose how they affect the world, and how the world affects them. Leaders who understand this shift make better decisions. The rest find out through a refused loan, a failed insurance renewal or a greenwashing claim.
Abdul Samad Javaid, FCCA, CPA, with an MBA in Sustainability and experience with PwC, EY and L’Oréal, explains the global shift in plain language and shows leaders how to respond with confidence.
Who this book is for
CEOs, CFOs, finance directors, board members, audit committee chairs and sustainability leads in Ireland, the UK, the US and beyond.
