This is a dynamic discussion on the rapidly evolving and often politicized ESG landscape, with a special focus on the social dimension and its associated business challenges, risks, and opportunities. Learn how the legal industry is addressing this complex and sometimes divisive element, both within its own practices and in guiding in-house legal teams and other clients to navigate and strategically manage the social component of ESG.
During this webinar, our team and panel of experts will be discussing:
– The current ESG landscape outlook and the business impact that social-related issues like DEI have on all industries, specifically the legal industry
– The challenge of creating a business case for ESG, as it is most often perceived as a cost rather than an investment
– The role that external professional service providers, like law firms, play in helping clients understand and address ESG, specifically the social element
– Understanding why some ESG/DEI initiatives fail and what can be done differently
– The implications of “doing nothing” in an era of heightened political scrutiny and rapidly shifting regulations
