MiljöRapporten conference
• At a time when sustainability reporting has become mainstream
and audiences remain sceptical, pro-active communications allows
you to:
• Take the message to your stakeholders
• Explain it in a way that they can understand, relate to and remember
• Involve your stakeholders in your sustainability agenda
BENEFITS:
• License to talk & to engage
• Improved stakeholder relations
• Employer branding
• Reputation in capital markets
• Perceptions among business partners
• Positive brand association for customers
• “Immunity” against risks and crisis
• …
SO WHAT?
MiljöRapporten conference
UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL A new model for sustainability…
MiljöRapporten conference
• Better understand users to see how digital is transforming the
company-stakeholder relationship (measurement)
• Draw up a shared strategy to overcome silos internally and ensure a
coherent approach
• Develop a lucid story about what sustainability means to the business,
why it is relevant both internally and to external stakeholders
• Change mentality about what constitutes “engagement”: more
informal acts of engagement (140 characters), less formal
• Reassess skills & capabilities in the team (or internal organisation)
