Communications Footprint
Once you have engaged in a Sustainability programme, communicating your progress will drive deeper engagement with your stakeholders. This can help your Organisation to achieve its social and environmental goals, enhance profits & reputation as well and help assure the best return on investment on your carbon & sustainability management.
Why Sustainability Communications matter to your Organisation.
Our research shows that only about 30% of companies communicate ‘green’ in a way that people care about. So, despite all the good work that’s going on behind the scenes in your business, it may be that your achievements are failing to resonate with your stakeholders.
Not having an effective communications strategy around your Corporate Social Responsibility programme is a real missed opportunity within your organisation’s Culture and also within your market – both of which are likely to have a huge impact on your profitability.
Whether your organisation is a Multinational or SME, communication is the key to:
- Creating understanding of your short and long-term sustainability objectives
- Engaging employees to achieve internal goals
- Driving engagement throughout your supply chain
- Achieving ‘first choice’ status with your clients and customers
- Increasing awareness of your brand, products and services
- Avoiding‘green-wash’
- Gaining the recognition you deserve
