How can you use benchmarking to identify gaps and opportunities in your corporate sustainability strategy?
This is a critical first step and lays the foundation for a credible approach to sustainability. For example, when tackling carbon emissions, you need to decide: 1) What is your boundary? I.e. one office? UK/Global operations? 2) What aspects of scope 1,2 and 3 emissions will you measure? A robust methodology should include as much within the boundary as possible and measure a minimum of scopes 1 and 2 (typically utility bills and vehicle fleet use), plus achievable scope 3 measures (e.g. business travel, waste, water and freight). Later you should get deeper into scope 3, looking at your supply chain emissions, use of product and those related to pensions and investments - but take it one step at a time and seek support if you need it!

During the hey-day of #LinkedInLocal I used to onboard Hosts from all over the world for a couple of hours every week. It was an absolute pleasure to have the opportunity to routinely connect with and support community-minded people from literally every continent!
Before we handed over the community to LinkedIn, I hosted events in Vancouver (Canada) where I was based for 5 months in 2018, and in Hertford and London in the UK. -
