商品描述
Read over 20 exclusive, in-depth interviews with chief sustainability officers (CSOs) of Fortune 500 companies such as Amazon, Coca-Cola, and Procter & Gamble and globally recognized brands such as IKEA and Netflix. These CSOs reveal how they deliver positive environmental and social impact through their companies’ core products and services and generate revenue growth while tackling unique leadership, change management, regulatory and stakeholder challenges.
Sustainability and environmental, social, governance (ESG) strategies are increasingly central to businesses’ growth strategy and risk management. As a result, the CSO has become more important as a driver of both revenue and strategy. Yet, no two CSOs are alike in their backgrounds, titles or even the scope of their roles. From former Peace Corps volunteers to supply chain experts, these C-suite leaders launch ambitious carbon emissions and net-zero goals, develop new products for a circular economy, target increasing the diversity of their company’s staff, align strategic projects to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and standardize reporting for the SEC, investors and more.
What You Will Learn
• How global multibillion dollar businesses in the United States, Europe and Asia structure their sustainability strategy
• How top sustainability executives drive both business value and positive environmental and social impact
• How CSOs landed in their roles without climbing a traditional career ladder
Who This Book Is For
Executives and board members generally or those establishing a sustainability or ESG strategy; current and aspiring CSOs and ESG leaders; business leaders partnering with sustainability leaders and teams; and students studying the integration of sustainability and business.
Advance praise for Chief Sustainability Officers At Work:
"Chief sustainability officers play a critical role in supporting the broader business transition to a more just and sustainable global economy. Through dialogue with influential sustainability professionals, Chrissa brings to life the essential role in bridging gaps and helping to eliminate the divide between "traditional" business functions, senior leadership, and the sustainability teams to drive transformational change within their firms." - Mindy Lubber, CEO and President, Ceres
"Chief Sustainability Officers at Work, is a fresh new book by seasoned business leader Chrissa Pagitsas that offers succinct ways anyone can implement and achieve ESG goals – whether they own the company or simply aspire to improve its impact on people and the planet. Chrissa roots this book in her own experience leading change within major companies that not only improved the businesses where she worked but improved the markets within which they needed to thrive. This is a must read for a seasoned ESG practitioner as much as it is for the young professional just getting started. Chrissa knows it is imperative we all just get started doing better and she opens up the otherwise dark box of how-tos for all of us to do our part." – Dana Bourland, SVP, The JPB Foundation and author of Gray to Green Communities: A Call to Action on the Housing and Climate Crises.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
閱讀超過20篇與《財富500強》公司如亞馬遜、可口可樂和寶潔的首席可持續發展官（CSO）進行的獨家深入訪談，以及全球知名品牌如宜家和Netflix的訪談。這些CSO揭示了他們如何通過公司核心產品和服務實現正面的環境和社會影響，並在面對獨特的領導力、變革管理、法規和利益相關者挑戰的同時實現收入增長。
可持續性以及環境、社會和治理（ESG）策略越來越成為企業增長策略和風險管理的核心。因此，CSO在推動收入和策略方面變得更加重要。然而，沒有兩位CSO在背景、職稱或角色範圍上是相同的。從前和平隊志願者到供應鏈專家，這些高層領導者啟動雄心勃勃的碳排放和淨零目標，開發循環經濟的新產品，目標是增加公司員工的多樣性，將戰略項目與聯合國可持續發展目標對齊，並為美國證券交易委員會、投資者等標準化報告。
您將學到的內容：
- 全球數十億美元的企業在美國、歐洲和亞洲如何構建其可持續性策略
- 頂尖可持續性高管如何同時推動商業價值和正面的環境及社會影響
- CSO如何在不依賴傳統職業階梯的情況下進入其角色
本書適合對象：
一般高管和董事會成員或那些建立可持續性或ESG策略的人；現任和有志成為CSO及ESG領導者的人；與可持續性領導者和團隊合作的商業領導者；以及研究可持續性與商業整合的學生。

「首席可持續發展官在支持更公正和可持續的全球經濟轉型中扮演著關鍵角色。通過與有影響力的可持續性專業人士的對話，Chrissa生動地展現了在彌合差距和消除“傳統”商業功能、高層領導和可持續性團隊之間的分歧方面的基本角色，以推動其公司內部的變革。」 - Mindy Lubber，Ceres首席執行官兼總裁
「《首席可持續發展官的工作》是資深商業領導者Chrissa Pagitsas的新書，提供了任何人都可以實施和實現ESG目標的簡明方法——無論他們是擁有公司還是僅僅希望改善其對人類和地球的影響。Chrissa將這本書根植於她在大型公司內部推動變革的經驗中，這不僅改善了她工作的企業，還改善了它們需要繁榮的市場。這本書對於資深的ESG從業者來說是必讀的，對於剛入行的年輕專業人士也是如此。Chrissa知道我們都必須開始做得更好，她為我們打開了這個原本黑暗的如何做的箱子，讓我們每個人都能盡自己的一份力量。」 - Dana Bourland，JPB基金會高級副總裁及《從灰色到綠色社區：住房和氣候危機的行動呼籲》一書的作者。
