Fragmented sustainability standards slow down reporting cycles and dilute executive confidence

The situation this course is for

EHS leaders face mounting pressure to align multiple frameworks without clarity on how GRI and SASB interact in practice. Teams default to parallel reporting, increasing effort and reducing consistency. The lack of a unified interpretation model leads to rework, inconsistent disclosures, and advisory fatigue.

Who this is for

Global EHS Systems Director leading sustainability reporting integration across multinational operations, managing compliance, disclosure, and internal alignment across frameworks

Who this is not for

Frontline EHS coordinators, auditors focused on single-standard verification, or sustainability generalists not responsible for cross-framework implementation

What you walk away with

  • Final call on GRI-SASB boundary decisions without escalation
  • Source-backed justification for materiality mappings
  • First internal team to deliver a reconciled EHS disclosure package
  • Repeatable crosswalk between GRI 300 series and SASB S9 standards
  • Executive visibility on work that previously stayed below the line
