It was a pleasure to help direct and deliver this new programme; a collaboration between the Oxford Sustainable Finance Group and ShareAction. A very engaged cohort. Stewardship and Engagement is hard. To quote Benjamin Graham, "In the short run, the market is a voting machine, but in the long run, it is a weighing machine." I hope that one of the take-aways from the content delivered by our excellent lecturers is that engagement goes well beyond getting a resolution through at the next meeting - it's about our agency in shaping the trajectory of corporate stewardship over the longer term.

A big thank you to all the participants, presenters and panellists at our inaugural Stewardship and Engagement Leadership Programme! We delivered the three-day executive education programme in collaboration with our partners Oxford Sustainable Finance Group. The course focused on building the skills, insights and networks needed for stewardship professionals to carry out their vital role in safeguarding financial returns whilst generating environmental and social outcomes that serve the interests of their clients and beneficiaries. 🌎🧑🤝🧑 We were thrilled by the energy, enthusiasm and insightful contributions all participants brought to the experience. We hope you've gone away inspired by the power of what strong collaborative stewardship can achieve, excited to implement new approaches and buoyed by new friendships! If you're a stewardship professional looking for rewarding and stretching opportunities to develop your responsible investment capabilities, keep an eye on this channel for future opportunities. 👀 University of Oxford Catherine Howarth OBE Alex Money Kevin Chuah Louise Rouse Rob Bauer Sacha Sadan Sophie Robinson-Tillett Simon Rawson
