ESG
Transform your organisation by implementing an ESG strategy aligned with the purpose and context of the business, ensuring longevity and the generation of shared value for the company.
The topic of ESG is becoming increasingly relevant in the daily lives of companies, consumers and society, and it is essential to integrate this topic into corporate strategies for the creation of a sustainable business model with long-term and viability and reduce exposure to risks.
Visagio acts as a partner to support ESG transformation, ensuring the inclusion of sustainability criteria in its business decisions. We work from understanding and evaluating maturity, structuring materiality, building the strategy roadmap to realising ESG integration in business, with the objective of creating a sustainable and perennial advantage aligned with the company's values and culture.
How we transform
Businesses
Perpetuate the ESG culture in the company by communicating commitments, implementing strategies, and obtaining certifications and ratings.
Along with the results generated by the ESG program, Visagio supports companies in communicating their defined commitments, results and evolution to external and internal stakeholders, allowing them to obtain certifications and participate in ESG ratings and consolidating the ESG culture.
— Internal disclosure of ESG objectives, results and strategies
— External disclosure of commitments and non-financial reports
— Proximity forums with investors and stakeholders
— Public disclosure of leadership messages
— Obtaining certifications and participating in ratings (Sustainalytics, MSCI, B Corp, among others)
Build the materiality matrix and define the priority themes for structuring a robust ESG strategy seeking long-lasting sustainable results and generating shared value with the entire chain.
The definition of the ESG strategy begins with the understanding and prioritisation of material issues, where Visagio assists companies in building the materiality matrix and reviewing or creating new strategies consistent with the reality of the business.
Stakeholder needs mapping
Identification of the needs of interest groups or those that are impacted by the activities carried out by the company and its decisions through interviews and field and market analyses.
Identification of material themes
Survey of the issues that potentially impact the business and the perception of stakeholders through analyses of regulatory bodies, sector benchmarkings, internal and external interviews, and risk analysis and strategies aligned with leadership.
Prioritisation of material topics
Determination of the relevance of each topic based on multi-criteria analyses to assess whether the material topic impacts the business and the perception of stakeholders.
Defining ESG strategies and metrics for business
Review and/or creation of strategies to act in line with the purpose of the business: prioritising efforts to obtain positive results internally and externally, preventing risks and controversies, and becoming a reference for ESG engagement and reputation.
Align company objectives and maturity of the ESG topic through interviews with leadership, listening with Stakeholders, industry benchmarking, and internal maturity assessment.
To assess the ESG issue in companies, Visagio uses a methodology based on four main pillars:
Leadership
Conducting interviews with the leadership to understand the main motivators and the objectives to be achieved in the implementation of an ESG strategy.
Stakeholders
Mapping the main stakeholders and their expectations regarding the company's position in the ESG field through interviews, research and public consultations.
Sector
Evaluation of the sector through benchmarking of existing best practices, identifying risks, opportunities, and trends.
Practice Maturity
Understanding the current scenario vs. the potential of the ESG practices adopted by the company to diagnose maturity, gaps, and opportunities.
Structure the ESG action program with agile and robust monitoring governance through indicators and targets for all levels of the company, allowing management, communication, and transparency of the progress of the initiatives.
The construction of the ESG program is carried out based on the unfolding of the strategy for all levels of the company into clear projects and actions, with goals, managers and accompanied deadlines.
Visagio works with its Governance, People & Management methodology to structure agile and robust ESG governance to monitor results, through committees and goal panels, reinforcing transparency and deployment of guidelines.
