Promote Understanding

Step 4. Promote Understanding

Clearly articulate your company’s climate action goals to your staff and relevant stakeholders. Promote ownership in their execution and encourage a proactive approach by individuals to achieve these goals.

To get the type of “buy-in” needed to properly execute your charter commitments, it is vital to involve all stakeholders from the start. All too often planning and accountability are centred at board or executive level instead of sharing responsibility more equally across your organisation. Inform stakeholders at all levels about your organisation’s declared policy. At all times promote dialogue and listen to feedback.
