ESG Playbook’s CEO and Founder, Sonia Zugel said: “We are proud to partner with GRI. By reporting and benchmarking sustainability data we are providing solutions to help companies in their journey to strengthen and adopt ESG impacts in their core business strategy. Our toolkit increases the quality, quantity and transparency of sustainability reporting. Consequently, our solutions enhance data collection with survey management in multiple modules which is a pain point for ESG reporting. Our Topic Benchmarking and Materiality Matrix with 3,000 industry specific aids companies to quickly ascertain topics from industry leaders for their stakeholder engagement, a key component in the GRI reporting framework. Moreover, ESG Playbook has an extensive KPI database and impact dashboard which assists companies to quantify and assess their progress on their ESG impact goals.
“A major advantage of GRI is that it has created a globally consistent language for organisations to report on their impacts, thus enabling related informed discussions and decision-making”, Zugel declares: “It is no longer the time for individuals or organizations to rest on their laurels and wait for governmental action and regulations. Internationally there has been a call to action and as an interconnected-global community, everyone should do their part. We at ESG Playbook hope to help private and public companies who are committed to be part of real and positive change by working together towards a more inclusive, environmentally-friendly world for future generations.”
