Human Resource (HR) and Organisation Development (OD) teams play vital roles in fostering continuous learning and development throughout your organisation. By ensuring that every business division maintains a sufficient level of internal awareness, they empower teams to actively participate in processes such as identifying and managing climate risks, collecting data for GHG emissions measurement, and implementing decarbonisation initiatives within their business operations.
In the long run, HR and OD also serve as key elements in cultivating a widespread organisational culture committed to sustainability. This becomes crucial as your organisation embarks on its decarbonisation journey, necessitating teams to rethink and innovate traditional practices—a change that is often met with discomfort. A strong commitment to sustainability culture will alleviate the barriers and challenges encountered along the way.
