The tsunami of sustainability legislation was the main topic of the latest sustainability event for supervisory board members by the Audit Committee Institute e.V. and KPMG. I very much appreciated to have been invited as a speaker and to join the panel discussion with Thomas Becker, Head of Sustainability and Mobility at BMW Group, and Lisa Katharina Schosser, Partner at KPMG, moderated by Angelika Huber-Strasser, Regional Head South at KPMG. It was interesting to better understand a supervisory board's perspective on the topic and to learn new aspects from the valuable discussions afterwards. Key messages I took away: - For small and middle-sized companies the necessity to establish a complex sustainability reporting system is not only a challenge but can be a threat to the very existence of their business. - Competencies for sustainability (reporting) have to be integrated in supervisory boards, for example supported by a specialized committee. - Boards of Management should collaborate with their supervisory boards to find the right balance between profitability and sustainability goals for their companies. Many thanks to Angelika Huber-Strasser, Christina Gasser, and Christian T. Pfaff for the invitation and the great organization! #circulareconomy #sustainability

🌍 Embracing Sustainability Transformation In today's world, sustainability is no longer a choice, but a necessity – especially in the context of regulations as the CSRD.

That's where our Sustainability Management & Steering Framework comes in. It‘s a comprehensive model that guides businesses in integrating sustainability via six specific topics.
