Vision, Goals, & KPIs

Create a Guiding Vision for Your Sustainability Efforts

Consumers, investors, and regulators are looking to the business community to lead on ESG. For businesses, the journey to sustainability leadership starts with a guiding vision.

With so many pressing sustainability issues today, it can be challenging to determine where to prioritize your efforts. Yet without taking time to formalize your vision and the metrics you’ll use to track progress, you risk falling short on impact and missing the mark with your stakeholders.

Our team can help you achieve alignment across your organization and create a meaningful north star for your ESG efforts, with the right metrics to measure success along the way. You’ll walk away with a concrete vision that complements your overall business strategy and enables you to develop initiatives that positively impact the bottom line.

How It Works

We’ll guide you through conversations with key leaders across your organization to determine where you are today and what success looks like in the future. Here’s how that might play out in practice:

Vision

Where does your business want to be? Your vision could be aspirational (an industry leader on climate) or grounded (net-zero by 2040).

Goals

To ensure you achieve your vision, you need goals that are SMART. For instance, reducing absolute emissions by 30% by 2025.

KPIs

What metrics will you track year over year to benchmark progress? Examples include GHG emissions, supplier ESG scores, and more.
