“Gildas is hardworker, open minded, great in diplomacy. Gildas was a truly reliable and trustworthy colleague. He was enthusiastic and centered on the collective success rather than personal glory even if he played a major role in it's achievement. It was great pleasure working with you Gildas ! :)”

What are the top ESG skills for a sustainability manager?
What ESG professionals need most is empathy. Empathy will help you grasp different point of views which are key to understand material issues for your organization. Empathy will help you avoid the traps of any silver bullet approach because the nature of the problem we face as society is complex. You need both social and technical empathy to appreciate potential solutions as well as their hurdles. As this is difficult to develop in one single individual, it’s important for an ESG professional to be part of a diverse team that bring those different perspectives and empathy types to the table.
