A plain-language, one-day introduction to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) for teams new to the topic. Understand what ESG actually means, the frameworks everyone references, and why your customers, banks and regulators are increasingly asking about it - the ideal starting point before deeper ESG, reporting or carbon work.

What ESG Really Means
The three pillars - Environmental, Social and Governance - explained with real Malaysian business examples, and how ESG differs from (and overlaps with) CSR and sustainability.
Why ESG Matters Now
The commercial drivers: customer and supply-chain requirements, bank and investor ESG expectations, Bursa Malaysia listing rules, and access to green financing and tenders.
Key Frameworks & Terminology
A tour of the frameworks you will keep hearing about - the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Triple Bottom Line, GRI, and common ESG ratings - without the jargon.
ESG in Day-to-Day Operations
Where ESG shows up across a typical business: energy and waste, people and diversity, health and safety, ethics and governance - and simple first actions each function can take.
Getting Started
How an organisation typically begins its ESG journey, what a materiality assessment is, and how the fundamentals connect to reporting and carbon accounting covered in later courses.
