ESG programs lack credibility and impact without effective stakeholder engagement and partnerships.
Effective stakeholder engagement and partnerships require insights regarding important stakeholders, understanding the external landscape of governments and third parties, and a productive approach to these relationships..
We assist companies to:
Identify Key Stakeholders:
Identify the most significant stakeholders on particular issues affecting a company's business and operations. We look at the broad range of possible stakeholders, including environmental, human rights, development and other NGOs; and unions, governmental organizations and multilateral institutions.
Develop Engagement and/or partnership Plans:
Develop and implement engagement plans with key stakeholders, including strategic collaborations and partnerships where appropriate. We have developed and managed collaborations and partnerships between companies, NGOs, governments, and multilateral institutions (such as the World Bank, United Nations and International Labor Organization) on issues ranging from labor, environment, human rights, economic development, health rule of law and other vital ESG issues.
