Written in a straightforward and conversational tone, you'll embark on a knowledge journey on the progression of ESG and sustainability and how it directly shapes and informs current practice. The book provides insights, discussion, and topical briefings as a side-by-side reader to accompany the rise of ESG and sustainability in business and the markets.

The ESG and Sustainability Deskbook for Business threads the needle with best practices, case studies, and takeaways to illustrate the applications and to enhance understanding.
