Listen "Academic: Sustainability Reporting by Kristjan from Copenhagen Business School"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to Episode 4 of AGILE Sustainability. In this episode, we invited a very experienced speaker on Sustainability Reporting, Kristjan Jespersen.Kristjan collaborated closely with the palm oil sector to build sustainability reports that demonstrate the sector's commitment to maintaining a sustainable environment. This collaboration experience gave him valuable first-hand information on how sustainability reporting evolved over the years in response to changes in external regulations around sustainability. Now he is generous to share those valuable insights with our listeners, who want to start building or improving their sustainability reporting to align with their business strategies.The topics in this podcast are:
00m44s Introduction on Kristjan and his research
02m14 s Benefits of investing in Sustainability Reporting
04m53s Evolvement of Sustainability Reporting for businesses
08m30s Means to get started on Sustainability Reporting
13m12s Useful frameworks or standards for Sustainability Reporting
17m49s Efficient methods to collect and manage data for reports
20m35s An example of strategic use of sustainability reports
23m30s Future Trends in Sustainability Reporting
One of the highlights from Kristjan's sharing is to leverage an agile approach when building sustainability reports. It's very difficult for businesses to craft finalized standards or templates for sustainability reports on the first try. And, commonly, sustainability reports get improved in iterations and, normally, each iteration introduces different changes than the previous iteration. What's important is the learning journey that companies go through to increase the transparency on the company's status on sustainable development via building sustainability reports.If you like this podcast and want to learn more about Kristjan's experiences and research, do visit his profile page here.Find out the topics to be explored at https://www.agilesustainability.org/Find the transcription of this podcast here.We would like to hear from you at [email protected] out to us for any questions or challenges you face in adopting sustainability solutions.Music by Wataboi from Pixabay
