FAQs

What is sustainability communications?

Purposeful and strategic storytelling that shares an organisation’s environmental, social and governance efforts, with evidence and without any greenwashing. Sustainability communications services include messaging, impact reporting, ESG literacy, PR and creative design, company purpose and mission, pillar strategies, and tailored content to engage and inspire internal and external audiences.

How does B Corp Certification help to drive my comms strategy?

More investors are incorporating purpose-driven agendas and ESG criteria into their investment decisions. Coupled with the growing public demand for legal accountability and transparency from businesses and 70% of employees seeking purposeful work, becoming a B Corp evidences your mission to make a positive impact.

Should I create an annual impact report?

An impact report is a really powerful way to communicate your current and intended impact to the stakeholders your business depends on. It effectively articulates and documents your sustainability efforts, demonstrating tangible progress on key issues and building transparency, accountability and trust. It is also a requirement for any certified B Corp and is increasingly seen as a best practice approach to sustainability reporting.

Will my communications approach help with employee engagement and attraction?

Outstanding sustainability performance and communication is intrinsically linked to business success. Those who find meaning in their work are more engaged, display stronger resilience and will go above and beyond for their employer.

An external commitment to sustainability also has a substantial impact on organisational growth. Between 2018 and 2021, B Corps saw a 15% headcount growth rate vs the national average of only 1% (B Lab UK Community Survey ’21).

Successfully communicating your sustainability journey will boost talent attraction and retention resulting in a more engaged workforce.
