Understanding Corporate Sustainability

Overview

Welcome to Audio Learning from Assemble You.

You will have heard the word sustainability in many contexts, but it’s specifically corporate sustainability that we’re focusing on today. We’re looking at sustainability and its connection to companies and organisations. This track will examine what corporate sustainability is and explain why it’s so important. It’ll give you the information you need to implement sustainable practices, rules, and frameworks in your corporate environment. 

Corporate sustainability concerns corporations delivering goods and services in a sustainable manner. If we dissect the phrase even further, it relates to a corporation's ability to maintain the environment around them. Some corporations take this one step further by improving the surrounding environment, but most businesses don’t run before they can walk. 

It’s important to note that corporate sustainability is not only concerned with the environment. Environmental concerns are one of the factors in deciding whether a corporation is sustainable, but social and economic considerations are undoubtedly relevant here too.
