READ THE executive summary

Too much of ESG reporting is just lists of KPIs and selective anecdones. Without narrative context and explanation of relevance, it’s incomplete.

FRAMEWORKS FOR DESIGN THINKING

Making Sustainability Reporting Stakeholder Friendly

The growth of a stakeholder economy and the importance of value creation outside just a company’s shareholders emphasizes a globally interconnected system. The World Economic Forum emphasizes that “the well-being of people in one society affects that of those in another, and it is incumbent on all of us as global citizens to optimize the well-being of all.”

But as companies focus on value creation across multiple sets of stakeholders, the difficulty becomes both prioritizing stakeholders and understanding their expectations globally. Stakeholder economics emphasizes the intersection of people and planet with the ultimate purpose of a company.

Format

Structure, design, and usability are strategic levers. If your report is hard to navigate, dense with jargon, or buried in visuals that confuse more than clarify, it fails its most important job: helping stakeholders make informed decisions.

Learn more about the Compass Framework for usability in sustainability reporting.

Value

For the investor stakeholder group, reports are not a “nice to have.” They are actionable documents that deliver on the risk clarity, strategic actions, and accountable leadership that allows for investment decision making throughout the year.

Learn more about the Anchor Framework for investor-grade ESG communications.

Intelligence

The 6 Dimensions of Stakeholder Intelligence are designed to help organizations assess and develop capacity to build trust, anticipate concerns, articulate their role in society, and empower stakeholders as partners in value creation.
