Sustainability From the Network Up - ESG Special with Sarwar Khan, Global Head of Digital Sustainability at BT Group

Sustainability From the Network Up - ESG Special with Sarwar Khan, Global Head of Digital Sustainability at BT Group

Embedding ESG considerations by design is an imperative - and this must be from the network up! In this special we explore the vectors of ESG change, especially around Sustainability, from opportunities to challenges, notably the intention-action gap regards awareness and actualisation, alongside complexity, and lack of consistency and comparability in measurement. To explore exactly this, I am delighted to be joined by Sarwar Khan, Global Head of Digital Sustainability at BT Group who was recently placed 25th in the Corporate Knights Global 100 list of the world’s most sustainable companies 2023.

In particular, we focus on the launch of the Carbon Network Dashboard and the Digital Carbon Calculator to help organizations accelerate their net zero goals by measuring and reducing their Scope3 ICT emissions. Milestone moments indeed! Alongside this we explore the power of the ecosystem in affecting change, integrative business and sustainability strategy development, inclusive leadership and skills implications especially for CIO's, plus skills advice too! And beyond this, as always :) we talk action on all things Data and Tech For Good including the Digital Boost Mentorship program for UK SMEs.

And we would love your thoughts on the show too - thanks for listening! Sally, Sarwar and the #TTT Team
