Unfinished Business, Episode 2: "People don't always bring their ethical sides to work."

Written by Henley | 12.7.2024

"What do we need to know and understand about ESG?" Lisa Pearce and Dr Chris Dalton discuss navigating sustainability and ESG challenges. 

In our second episode, Lisa Pearce chats to Chris about her deep appreciation for environmental science and why climate change should be included in every company’s objectives.

 

Lisa Pearce is CEO and co-founder of ESG IKON, and develops sustainability strategies that incorporate rigorous, environmental and social governance practices. Her work extends to global platforms including chairing significant meetings on water management and finance and contributing to international standards for sustainability.

Over two decades Lisa has established herself in navigating complex sustainability and ESG challenges.

Lisa obtained her MBA degree from Henley Business School in 2019 and then went on to secure her MSc degree in Environmental Science from the University of Cape Town, where her research explored water-related risks in the production of feedlot beef in South Africa, using the Water Footprint Analysis method.

 

‘Unfinished Business’ is the Henley Personal Development podcast. Hosted by Dr Chris Dalton, each episode is an invitation to join a conversation with an inspiring leader as they reflect on their lives, careers, and self-awareness. This is the personal side of management learning, which is a lifelong and emergent journey toward sustainable health and well-being for individuals, organisations, and wider community.
 

Many of those featured have graduated from Henley Business School’s top-ranked Executive MBA programme, and they represent a diverse set of nationalities, industries, job functions, and outlooks. What they have in common is a love of learning and passion for growth.

 

What barriers prevent us from reaching our full potential? How can fostering a healthy work-life balance enhance leadership? What role does personal growth play in driving organisational success? How can we contribute to a healthier community and environment? Join Chris and his guests as they tackle these questions, and more, as they navigate their unfinished business.
