Introduction

In this Executive Morning Brief CBS Professor and Associate Dean Andreas Rasche will debate how boards can integrate sustainability into their decision-making with Jeanette Fangel Løgstrup who serves as a non-executive director on various boards. You will learn about three key questions that currently shape this discussion:

Which structures should boards create (e.g., a committee) to ensure high-quality oversight of sustainability?
Which mix of competencies does a board need to successfully address the sustainability agenda?
What can boards do to move the discussion of sustainability beyond regulatory compliance?
