Copy LinkSession One - Prerequisites for Progress
Background
This Working Group, drawing upon the research and resources of The Conference Board, will take a highly practical approach to (1) what defining we in the US are trying to achieve in the areas of the environment, the economy, and social well-being; (2) the respective roles of the private and public sectors in achieving those goals; (3) how companies can incorporate the broader picture in mind when integrating ESG into their individual business strategies; and (4) how companies can better collaborate with each other, and work more effectively in partnership with the public sector, to make progress.
In the first session, we will discuss the prerequisites for achieving progress toward environmental, economic, and social goals. Those include international security, domestic safety, and the rule of law. Without that foundation, the other work will be for naught. The session will address (i) the current state of security, safety, and the rule of law; (ii) the roles of the public and private sectors in strengthening those areas; (iii) how companies can incorporate those priorities into their individual strategies and better collaborate with each other and the public sector in making progress.
