Sustainability and net-zero have become buzz words in recent years, with more and more organisations creating net-zero targets and sustainability initiatives. While setting these targets have been welcomed, there have been concerns raised about how committed CEOs have been about the net-zero agenda.
A survey of more than 4,500 CEOs found that the minority of them have been a part of creating their organisation's net-zero target. As the need for more organisations to seriously work towards their net-zero targets, it is imperative that CEOs become a driving force for the change.
What role will CEOs play in delivering the net-zero agenda? How can they be in the driving seat, rather than taking a back seat position? What constraints are CEOs facing when it comes to the net-zero agenda and how can they be overcome?
These were the questions that were tackled in the closed door CEO session held at IMpower Incorporating FundForum 2022.
