Many may think that they work primarily on ESG reporting—which is in fact only a very small part of what our graduates do! We are pleased to have Season Ho, Udara Senevirathne, and Ruoqi Zhu 朱若绮 Zhu sharing with us how they embed sustainability knowledge and skill sets into their everyday work. Here are some key takeaways:

– 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿. Sustainability is about shifting from linear to circular resource management, from maximising profit to attaining positive societal impact as well as advancing business model with system thinking and innovation.
– 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝘁. Beyond reporting, stakeholder engagement and internal communications are fundamental to setting and implementing sustainability strategies and goals.
– 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁-𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀. Peer learning is one of the very effective ways to advancing one’s sustainability knowledge and this certainly helps with mainstreaming best practice across the sector.
