Divided into five sections – Priorities, Performance, People, Planet, and Policies – the collection of insights offers a far-reaching assessment of what leading companies are doing in each of the five focus areas.
In the Planet section, CECP asks, “How does environmental footprint factor into investments, resource management, and sustainability decisions?
