A Conference Preview: ESG Galore!

Over the course of this week, I am giving you a preview of the topics that I plan to address at our upcoming conferences: the “1st Annual Practical ESG Conference,” the “2022 Proxy Disclosure Conference” and the “19th Annual Executive Compensation Conference.” I may need to watch what I say in this blog – yesterday I was talking about my upcoming remarks on stock market volatility and Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 1,276 points!

It is always great to be part of the first of anything, so that is why I look forward to participating in our “1st Annual Practical ESG Conference,” which takes place on October 11, 2022. If somehow you have missed all of our prior promotion of this inaugural event, this standalone conference will deliver usable, practical guidance on the hottest ESG topics, in a candid and conversational format. I will be joining recognized ESG practitioners from legal, accounting/auditing and in-house corporate backgrounds to help you stay ahead of reputational risks, stakeholder demands and regulatory initiatives – and provide meaningful pointers to design, implement and improve corporate ESG programs. The “1st Annual Practical ESG Conference” is a great way to showcase and celebrate all of the hard work that is gone into building PracticalESG.com as the go-to resource for all things ESG.

The line-up of panels for the “1st Annual Practical ESG Conference” is extraordinary. The conference will be covering:

– ESG Hot Topics – Forewarned is Forearmed
– Carbon Accounting Risks: Offsets, Disclosures & More
– ESG Litigation & Investigations – Are You at Risk?
– ESG’s Employment Law Landmines & How to Avoid Them
– DEI Trends in the Midst of Rapid Change
– Your ESG Team – Candid Board & Staffing Considerations
– SEC Climate Rules – Jumpstarting Your Disclosures

I will be participating in the last panel of the day, which is focused on an important ESG topic that is on everyone’s mind – the SEC’s climate disclosure rules. I will be joined on this panel by Maureen Kline from Pirelli Tire North America, Ashley Walter from Orrick and Kristina Wyatt from Persefoni, and we are going to dive into the Sample Climate Disclosure available exclusively to members of PracticalESG.com so we can give you the most practical guidance about what to expect when the SEC’s proposed climate disclosure rules are ultimately adopted. This is definitely a panel – and a program – that you do not want to miss!
